"...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 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.
Thank you, this is a great distillation of our dilemma yet I think there's never been a better time to reach and influence a critical mass of citizens. It's just going to take a little thinking to outflank the oligarchs. and then we can get on with the business of promoting our general welfare. I believe it's possible, but it will be real hard to do.
I love your outlook, and believe it or not, I do harbor a positive sentiment as well. Like I've said, we need to know a thing before we do a thing. I'm glad you're not inconvenienced by truth. And I'm even more glad that your mind is in the space of "What we can do about it". Thank you for caring about this life...
