Being that half of the country has become unhinged and denies reality, it is becoming apparent that our differences are too far apart to settle. Would you vote to secede from the USA if given the opportunity?

I considered myself to be a very patriotic person but our government is a sack of **** right now. I’d vote to secede if given the option.

Id rather live a lower lifestyle than to be under the rule of corruption.

So what about Granny's Social Security check? What about the roads, what about defense. A whole lot what abouts. Voting to secede is dumb..

I vote for global warming to push California into the ocean, sink NYC, and swamp Washington DC. That'd probably be better than another civil war. This time the South would probably win.

Of course you post this crap without understanding the why. You and your far left wing ideology can’t see the forest for the trees. It’s demographics and anyone with a lick of common sense knows this. Shame on you and your liberal freaks that try and spin the narrative. How about take your science and shove it up your rear because that’s simply not true.
White, black, red, purple, etc, we all should have equal opportunity. Unfortunately the liberal Democrats have been doing everything possible for decades while under disguise of calling others racists.

With whats happening now I’d say probably the only chance those of us have who want to live in freedom is to seperate.
The Dems are giving illegal aliens the right to vote or trying to in several cities, and will without a doubt do so nationwide if they can.
They are simultaneously allowing millions of them in for the express purpose of keeping power forever by allowing them To vote after they give them billions in tax payers money as a reward for breaking our laws to be here.
They want totally unverified votes to count and no time limit on elections which they get in many battleground states already.
Not strangely the Dems always win these “close” elections and any challenges are thrown out without any examination of the merits/evidence.
The Dems also will pack the Supreme Court with Marxists to strike down any State law that doesn’t adhere to their Marxist principles.
They are very close to achieving irreversible control.
They are already expanding the IRS to go after the poor and middle class, scanning our checking accounts for deposits of more than $600 and have infiltrated Venmo to further harass and intimidate the public into fear and submission.
The moment they successfully expand the SCOTUS they will start confiscating all firearms and we will complete the transition to China level totalitarianism.
This is not a life I want to live and I’d rather die fighting for freedom honestly.
none of this is hyperbole, this is all out in the open for anyone who can see things honestly and not be blinded by fear of reality or brainwashed by propaganda.

Ah yes, nothing more patriotic than wanting for your fellow Americans to die. especially the ones from states like Ny and ca that pay for all of your ****.

Wait. Are you a socialist?

I would investigate that a little more if I were you. I think it may be quite possible that many of those areas may have a higher minority population. If that is the case, we know how that monolithic voting bloc votes.

Thanks for your opinion. One of the things I hate the most is “that’s the way it has always been so it must continue to be that way.”

Social security etc would all still exist, at the state level. Ponzi schemes work when one has taxing authority as a government does.

Thinking that social security, roads et al can only de done by a Federal government is dumb to me.

Hate to tell you, but without the taxes of California and NYC, the south would starve. The south is fully supported by the federal government teat.
This was true pre-pandemic but those tides have started to shift a bit. Cali has a $24b tax deficit they face in 2023 which means they will have to raise taxes and New York is losing corporate HQ tax revenue by the month, although they seem to have found some surplus for 2023 ($7.1b) (haven't done any research to figure out where it's coming from but good news comparing to the previous two years)

I saw a good map showing relocation figures by state yesterday and Florida, Texas and Tennessee at least would likely be ok. Pretty eye opening to see the amount of corporate and household relocations happening. Would expect more southern states to move to no-income tax to attract the same relocations.

Personally, I don't think national divorce is viable for a bunch of reasons but the biggest would de defense. We have too many international enemies now and I'd expect we'd likely see an invasion almost immediately.

While I understand why England voted Brexit, I'd argue there are a ton of good lessons to learn from that disaster. Things like simple border control for international flights are difficult challenges and likely not even thought about.

Social security looks to be in real trouble by 2033 so not long term viable anyway. Most of us will either see substantial reductions or no SS money at all.

I understand the logic of national divorce but I just don't think it's doable on many fronts. .

Exactly why we want a divorce. People whom are unhinged from reality, like yourself, think that science is Fauci. You can have all your blue state money, that’s exactly what I’m saying. I would voluntarily live without blue state money to not live in your unhinged reality where Fauci “Is the science”,

You can have a country where unicorns, Fauci, trannies and Russian collusion reigns supreme.

Dumfuckistan as you say, will practice real science, science done with the scientific process and openly debated. Trannies will be treated as mentally ill and can hire therapists as needed. The justice system will apply the law equally to all citizens regardless of political party. Bitcoin will be the official currency so the central bank can not dominate your life. Corruption, will be punished at the highest level.

Dumfuckistan is actually a great name. It will keep all the arrogant ******** out, just like we want.

We need to keep this nation together including our deluded brainwashed liberal brethren. Having the entire nation agree on a unified basic reality will help. We are witnessing a media driven information war and it is causing citizens to polarize more than ever seen before and its hurting us. No easy solution but we need to keep working at it.

That’s what we are saying. The patriotism is no longer there. The country does not represent Freedom that made it desireable. We either fight for Freedom or we secede. Those are the only two paths I see right now. I hope another path opens up, but it’s not there right now.

The shining beacon of Freedom is about to have its flame snuffed out by democrats. It’s time for divorce.

This is total misconception. Red states have plenty to offer and it’s not like a new country would be cut off from trade. Look at Europe, many nations together on one continent trading freely while remaining sovereign.

Some initial pain may be had while we transition to a new country, but as they say “Freedom ain’t free” . And the whole point of this post is that it’s a price worth paying. Divorce is expensive because it’s worth it.

Take a look at the U.S. census migration data for 2022. You and @dpic73 will be the last two people remaining in libtopia. You will have all the money, err US Dollars, that you can throw at each other. The rest of us will be living in the reality of Dumfuckistan, where science, freedom, and honesty are our guiding lights. All things that blind the left.

We can’t do simple border control now, so that can only get better. .

Dumfuckistan will still have security alliances and will still have military. If a country wants to invade an armed populace they can try (the left will have already given up their guns) , but again Freedom is worth fighting for. If you have forgotten, go take a trip to Normandy to remind yourself.

We can die from the outside or we can die from the inside, but make no mistake the America we know and are patriotic to is dying before our very eyes and quickly.

When you say Media driven, you really mean government driven. The media is the government and the government is the media. . That is 100% obvious the last few years.

You never fail to throw out casual racism when you think it helps your cause but that's not it either.

“In an ideal world, politics and health would be independent of each other and it wouldn’t matter whether one lives in an area that voted for one party or another,” says corresponding author Haider Warraich, MD, of the Division of Cardiovascular Medicine at the Brigham, in a media release. “But that is no longer the case. From our data, we can see that the risk of premature death is higher for people living in a county that voted Republican.

"Looking at that phenomenon more closely, the team found a widening gap among white residents in key areas, including heart disease and cancer. In fact, the death rate among whites was four times higher in Republican counties than in Democratic counties during the study period."

"Results show that mortality rates in Democratic counties fell from 850 for every 100,000 people in 2001 to 664 in 2019 — a drop of 22 percent. In Republican counties however, the mortality rates went from 867 per 100,000 people to 771 — a decline of just 11 percent."

Just think, you'll be free to inject bleach and eat horse paste til the cows come home. We'll listen to scientists and we'll see who fares better.

Wait, are you still suggesting Ivermectin isn’t a viable human treatment? Hasn’t that been destroyed the last 12 months or so?

When in doubt go racism.

Racism is like the little boy that cried wolf. When we hear it, we know to ignore the person espousing it.

I think something like nullification is more likely. But, even that is not likely. We have made our beds and must lie in it. Both sides have voted for their own self interests whilst covering our eyes to the price tag. If the dollar loses world reserve currency status(also not likely) we'll have to wake up and smell the turd in the bowl.

Another thought. Also, not very likely. Texas, Tennessee, Utah, New Hampshire, Wyoming, Nevada??? and a couple of other states have allowed alternate forms of currency. Essentially you can pay your state taxes in gold, silver, or perhaps goldbacks (see goldback.com)I'm guessing Florida has done this..not sure.

Withholding funds from states that go "rogue" or the Russia treatment would devastate any state that "secedes" or nullifies. Texas and Tennessee have passed bill allowing for their own state's vault to store PMs. They have not built them.

With whats happening now I’d say probably the only chance those of us have who want to live in freedom is to seperate.
The Dems are giving illegal aliens the right to vote or trying to in several cities, and will without a doubt do so nationwide if they can.
They are simultaneously allowing millions of them in for the express purpose of keeping power forever by allowing them To vote after they give them billions in tax payers money as a reward for breaking our laws to be here.
They want totally unverified votes to count and no time limit on elections which they get in many battleground states already.
Not strangely the Dems always win these “close” elections and any challenges are thrown out without any examination of the merits/evidence.
The Dems also will pack the Supreme Court with Marxists to strike down any State law that doesn’t adhere to their Marxist principles.
They are very close to achieving irreversible control.
They are already expanding the IRS to go after the poor and middle class, scanning our checking accounts for deposits of more than $600 and have infiltrated Venmo to further harass and intimidate the public into fear and submission.
The moment they successfully expand the SCOTUS they will start confiscating all firearms and we will complete the transition to China level totalitarianism.
This is not a life I want to live and I’d rather die fighting for freedom honestly.
none of this is hyperbole, this is all out in the open for anyone who can see things honestly and not be blinded by fear of reality or brainwashed by propaganda.
Fox News literally admits to being a propaganda network, so which side would they’ve on? You think they’ll go liberal in this fantasy land?

Instead of blue states sending money for our poors, can we send our poors to blue states? They are voting for you guys anyways.
Sounds like a racist comment to me because you know the poor whites will go with Dumbfvckistan, but yes you can send all the others our way because we welcome people of all races, all minorities of all stripes. We believe in the original concept of America so we welcome multi-culturalism with open arms.

Those states also disproportionately pull federal subsidies to supplement their budgets. Some states and cities do a better job living within the financial constraints of their budgets. These are not those...I don't hate to tell you.

Do you think NATO will align with a break off republic that has more in common with Russia than the rest of the civilized world?

Do you think you'll benefit from tourism when the rest of the world will avoid you like the plague due to the highest concentration of guns on the planet and diseases that are widely spread because you don't believe in prevention or cures? When you spread the plague indiscriminately because you don't believe in science, how many doctors will want to live there?

Do you think other countries will want to engage with President Taylor-Greene and VP My Pillow?

Remember, there aren't as many of you as you think and the elections keep reminding us over and over that you are in the minority.

But we'll pray for you.
