"...a wormhole to sanity...". That is an exceptional family of words, and perhaps the future title of a much-needed addendum to our founding documents.
As for abolishing "factions" and uniting in the public interest, I see applying "best practice-based solutions" as imperative. Living documents for living things.
As to the mechanism of inspiring 12 million people, I am regrettably without answer. The mass mediums of which messaging flows appear to be either owned, corrupted, or significantly marginalized to a musty corner of social discourse. How do we produce a medium that has a high probability of reaching people while keeping the integrity of said medium intact?
In Jaron Lanier's book, "Who Owns the Future?", he expresses concern regarding this very idea. The gist is that the owner of produced content or the content itself has near-zero power - it is the networks/ carriers of content which hold power.
We need a means of mass communication that is impervious to interference from the faceless lords of billionairium and their aspiring devout serpents.
