I have a fantasy where DeSantis and his supporters cause Florida to secede, then all the most die-hard evangelicals, fascists and chuds, the worst the republicans have to offer, all flock there to protect their glorious revolution. Then the rest of us can just wall it off and have healthcare, sane governance, green energy, adult discourse, and all the stuff we're prevented from having because republicans refuse to support anything unless it allows them to be cruel to someone.

    You can't have a fantasy of Florida leaving without also having Texas leave as well.

    You could literally solve pretty much all of America's problems in one fell swoop by eliminating those 2 states.

    With the rising heat in Texas, we can just wait until it becomes hell on Earth, right?!

    Yeah but I think enough people from Texas might move to Florida to make it redeemable

    Can't take that chance. Kick them out, then seal up the border so none of whatever shit they are drinking, eating or smoking that is making them crazy, gets into the New United States

    🤔 So why don't we push for blue states to secede instead of waiting for DeSantis and his cult to do it?

    Washington, Oregon, and California are increasingly working together on various topics in a way that makes the region more cohesive. We also largely have very similar cultures, Southern California excluded. I wouldn't much mind us three being our own country.

    Because a large group of Northerners (most blue states) tend to associate any secession with the specific secession over slavery in the 1860s, because Texas v. White’s the law of the land, and because the Dems care about rules: They have been bringing policy papers to gunfights since before I was born.
