RvW Has Been Overturned. What Now? Do We Continue To Fracture As A Nation?

Everyone knows that Red State Americans and Blue State Americans perceive the world from wholly different and wholly incompatible perspectives.
Rather than see our society further degrade into violent anarchy, wouldn’t it be more sensible to agree to disagree and go our separate ways?
From Tom Woods’ e-letter….
Roe v. Wade: Is A National Divorce In Our Future?
With Roe v. Wade overturned, protests have broken out across the United States.
Andrew Yang declared that the Court had become political. Andrew, you're only off by decades, possibly even centuries.
I've already written about Roe before. Even its supporters generally admitted that the so-called legal reasoning behind it was a joke.
The Court is now saying: the federal government was never given any authority over abortion. Therefore, it is not the job of the Court to be a superlegislature, deciding contentious issues for every state in the Union. We have states for a reason. We are returning this issue to them to decide.
That seems sensible enough to people who believe in local self-government. At the same time, there are millions of people who consider this decision outrageous.
So they want to increase the number of people sitting in our superlegislature, so they can get the outcome they want. Same goes for any number of other issues on which we are hopelessly divided.
How about, instead of vainly hoping that we can persuade 80 million other people to think like us, or that we can just keep fiddling with the Court in perpetuity, we consider going our separate ways in peace? The very fact that this is the one option the establishment won't even let us entertain is a pretty good indication that it must be the right one.

In 2 weeks 95% of the country will go back to worrying about shite that matters more to them
People have feelings about abortion but its a fringe issue for most voters

Next step according to the hysterics is we get to enslave all the women and force them to breed.

Won’t be two weeks. The media will tell the idiots that they should be more upset about the EPA decision tomorrow morning.

I doubt that the “protesters” have jobs, so your premise doesn’t quite apply to them.

We have been and will remain irrevocably fractured from the Left. This is the first time since 2016, the ball hasn’t bounced their way, so hopefully they feel what we’ve been feeling. A divorce is needed before it all goes down.

Why compromise? Personally I wish we would drive the left into the ocean…

The left doesn't want us to go in our separate ways. If the right were to leave and do their own thing, that is not good enough for them. They want us to be every bit as miserable and angry as they are. They will simply infiltrate to where conservatives are and cause trouble.

Correct like an incessant nagging bitch, they want to crush you. I had 2 friends married to those types. One just simply walked out the back door during her bitch session and lit a .38 in his mouth, the other sucked the hose in the garage. That’s what the Left is like.

Yep.
While my state went for Trump by a wide margin in 2020 (guess the cheaters decided they didn't need us), the suburb in which we live is pretty much evenly divided red / blue. SO far we've lived side by side. But what now? Must of us just can't pick up and move.

Just ignore them. They’ll wear themselves out, like with small children.

For most Americans, I would tend to agree. Yet progs don’t think like that — it is their way or the highway.
We already have seen the disastrous results of their rigged elections. Wait until they start packing the courts.

Here is the thing: some form of political separation is the ultimate form of gloating — at least as far as the reigning bipartisan regime in Washington D.C. goes.

What compromise? Standing for First Principles is in no way a compromise. These words are just as relevant today as the day they were written:
“….whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.”
