Thomas Hübl explains how trauma gets pushed into the unconscious and repeats itself through compulsion. Healing requires developing the capacity to hold societal fragmentation, the habitual us-versus-them dynamic, without getting pulled into it. This capacity is the beginning of building a less divided world.

And. And the nature of trauma is also that it's overwhelming, that it's too much, and that we want to push it away into the unconscious and keep it there. But as long as it's there, it has this repetition compulsion. It will surface again and again and again. So that's not a sustainable way of living. And therefore, I think, as human beings, we are asked to grow a new capacity. And that new capacity is because in the restoration process, or often in society, it's us versus them. There's always an us and the them. Then it's the right wing, the left wing. We don't like this one. And I think we need a higher capacity to be able to host the fragmentation, to be able to stay with it and not become enrolled in it. And that's the beginning of building a new world that goes beyond that fragmentation.
