We recently had some threads about the US that were a bit..
Rather than emphasize what divides Americans, let us attempt to find things that are positive that unite Americans from either side of the great number of divides that the media keep pushing into you.
What unites both sides of the symbolic divide?
Where can you strike common ground?
Of course it won't work for everyone but what would Unite Americans bu their hearts and minds into One, to the major extent?
Its not patriotism. Its not any of the funny wrenches you can throw in this thread.
For real now, what unites beyond the divide?

Cute animal videos?
But seriously this is an interesting question. I think the problem right now is... not much.
You would have thought that a pandemic such as we are experiencing would make the country more united, banding together and helping each other out. That happened somewhat, but of course it has mostly served to highlight the inequalities that still exist and how many people live hand to mouth.
I think we need some way to make the positive stuff that's happening "front page news" instead of the actual front page news, which seems to consist mainly of partisan politics crap from both sides, bad behavior from people in various high positions of power, and catastrophes that most readers can't do anything about.
Cute human videos?

Oppression
--------------------
Ephesians 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Psalm 12:6 The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. Hebrews 11:3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear. Revelation 3:11 Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.

Historically, a common enemy has provided a uniting influence for Americans.
It therefore confuses me that Covid-19 is not viewed as a common enemy and if it were, perhaps it would unite instead of further divide.
Your potus wore a mask today. That's something to unite liberals and conservatives together on.

Disasters that we can see. One credit I give all United Statesians is that in disaster like a tornado/hurricane/flooding/fire etc. etc. etc. we really do pull together, drop the bullshit differences and help one another out.
