I think the a a core level most people want the same thing. The cia/foreign policy/imperialism bullshit drives a fear of foreign nations that scares the right and the lack of investment in education healthcare criminal justice and social wellbeing drives the left, if the bigger issue of government corruption which perpetuates all of these issues is attacked, it would close the gap wedging the parties apart. I think that was the appeal of Bernie who addressed the banking corruption which appeals to everyone. I don't feel that I am expressing this well, but I hope you understand what I mean.

we all just need to get together on 1) destroying innocents is wrong, and 2) lying about it is worse.

we all need to get together on the difference between right and wrong. there is absolute truth in this world, and not destroying innocents is one of those truths.

this could do it though... let's hope, despite everything, it happens.. not for politics but for the children.

The politics are so intertwined which is how we got here. There was a post by a young campaigner talking about how they basically abused (mentally, emotioinally and overworked) the young staff & volunteers to weed out the moral and upright from those who could be corrupted and promoted Her story is in pgwhatever about a month ago.
