No, simply because it would be better to try and fix the union rather than dissolve it entirely
It would be nice if we could finish Reconstruction instead of letting the south keep their shit white supremacy culture
Yeah, like even if they did manage to break away they would constantly be getting little raiding parties and all sorts of harassment from the old government and continually have to waste all sorts of resources on defending themselves. If it gets to the point where open armed conflict with the US government seems like a good idea you might as well skip past secession to overthrow.
Would you approve of a seditious conspiracy to destroy the rightful government of the United States of America? Click here to be added to the list.

God I hope California tries it. Civil War 2 now with stealth bombers
No, I think the union should be preserved. Losing the long war to confederates who want to re-segregate the country isn’t an option. We shouldn’t abandon the people in those states to whatever violence republicans can justify.
Instead of posts like these, consider trying for posts that highlight how it’s really all of us vs. a handful of incredibly wealthy people.
The sooner we can help people understand our government has been completely coopted by money, the better.
For instance, if you voted for Trump to stay out of foreign conflicts, now you can see he is just about the money.
Californian. No.
It wouldn’t solve any problems that can’t be solved by other means, and it would create new problems that we haven’t had to worry about before. It’d be a net loss for everyone involved.
What about Texas? Can we get rid of that state? Give it back to Mexico maybe.
It’s one of those things that sound reasonable until you actually spend a minute thinking about the details.
Minting money. Starting a post office. Borders. People who work out of state.
Borders? California? They don’t care about borders lol
No but I live in one of the theocratic states, things would get even more dire.
No, but I’d consider it for a large group of states. The US dividing into 2 countries is better than some other outcomes I can imagine.
Oregon won’t even ditch daylight saving time unless California and Washington do too… there’s no way we’d be brave enough to leave the union.
I think it’s a pipe dream but I would absolutely love it if we (in California) left the US. I’m tired of paying insanely high federal taxes so loser states like Louisiana can take it all and not govern. Fuck that.
NY. Yes. Very much so. MAGA is a metastisized cancer, the only way to survive is to cut it off. Let the red states fester in their own stench and divert any money that would’ve gone to the federal government to instead fund getting refugees out. Ideally other states would follow and form some form of union or an alliance with Canada.
The US is a failed experiment. It’s way too big for itself. There is no way someone can represent a random farmer in Idaho and a NYC socialite at the same time.
I’ve thought that it would work better more like the EU. Ola body overseeing some more basic concepts while each individual completely governs themselves. Maybe that was the original idea, it’s been so lost though.
