Common Ground

These are Twitter accounts that rank highly in both lenses, meaning these are the people who are likely trusted by both groups and could be useful at neutrally establishing a shared reality. Once they clear a threshold in PageRank score, they are sorted by geometric mean of both Personalized PageRank scores (decreasing).
