I have not argued for war over secession. There are things, if I had kids, I would sacrifice for... America, the idea of America, freedom... things any good human would fight for. I can't speak as a parent, so I won't. Looks like my path won't be having kids... but I am not totally sure what you're asking me what, specifically, i would send my own kid into war for.

I'll quote Animal Mother from Full Metal Jacket,

Unless you’re willing to put your kid’s life on the line for such a cause, shut the frick up.
I have so much to learn.

Sorry, but nothing you’ve said indicates that anything more than an unhinged fringe of the left (antifa) hates freedom and wants to destroy capitalism.
Perhaps I am doing a poor job articulating how I see a communist agenda is pervading our country, and that the vehicle for that are those that are left of center. What I've said ounds clear to me.

My argument is secession almost always leads to war. This entirely relevant to what you are proposing. If Americans knew what the Nazis were actually up to, there’s no doubt almost all of them would say yes to the question I am proposing.

It’s because deep down you know this is all bullshite. This sacrificing lives for or leaving the Union. It’s ridiculous to even bring up.

There's no point. I gave several reasons why leftism is killing people and that we have reasons to want to call for secession earlier in the thread and the response was "Orange Man Bad!"

Laugh all you want. But todays liberal has become tomorrow's conservative for decades now. at least a couple decades. and while the left cant sprint faster towards a more aggressively liberal and progressive mentality, the right stays largely unchanged in their ideals... but mostly want to live anand let live.
There is no equivalent on the right to the actions of the left. I do truly believe in TDS.
Party of tolerance. Lol

Well yeah. And the reason for that violence would be leftists wanting to keep right-wingers in the Union.
But there isn't political, ethnic, or religious homogeneity across the US, which means that violence is likely along all those lines, as they have been during similar partitions, especially in areas where political alignments are diffuse. I'd wager that you'd see lots of displaced peoples and expelled populations that wouldn't have anything to do with anyone's political affiliation.
Decentralization is a more likely outcome than complete devolution.

It’s because you aren’t intelligent and don’t think things through. To anyone intelligent, the first thing they think about when it comes to secession is the body count. It needs to be exceptionally dire for that to be on the table.

Let's play a game. You post as many links of video evidence where the right is being intolerant and I will do the same and show when the left is intolerant. We will let the board judge which side wins?

Well, I don't know the logistics of how secession would work because it just doesn't seem like anything that's going to happen any time soon. It seems like it would have to start with a small group of like-minded people but what do I know?
However, that won't stop me from arguing that it's insane for right-wingers to think they can peacefully share a government with leftists.

So people bringing up highly possible body counts to you is irrelevant.
Congrats, Frito. You are a fricking moron who brags about his own ignorance.

You’re a simpleton. No use in engaging with a sub-90 IQ individual.

What do you know? You might need a small group, but there are a lot of other conditions and considerations. My view is that without a major financial, political, or military meltdown, no fringe group will have the necessary capital to succeed, despite how much they might hope for it.

It depends on how far the left and right are from one another. I don't think the left and right are all that far from one another in this country. There are segments that are, but overall, politics takes place within a very small window, almost all of which is within the center-right.

So I'm not supposed to take into account death and destruction caused by the left that has actually already happened and is happening when discussing secession. However, I'm supposed to bring up death and destruction that may happen as a result of secession? I'm just trying to get this straight.

Despite our long history of doing so? And countless other western countries?

You have nothing to justify secession and the war that would follow from what Democrats as a whole are doing. Just say you’d sacrifice your kid for it. I think you’d have a hard time justifying this, specifically because of what your ancestors did in actual dire circumstances.
