As the country becomes more and more divided, we are going down a slippery slope which cannot be stopped. The grand American Experience has been remarkable but it is no longer attainable. We have become too diverse and we lack the moral values that once made America the only country not built on a shared ethnicity. From the Ottoman Empire to the Austro-Hungarians, the ethnic divide is too deep to repair.
The only two outcomes I see being sustainable is a break up of the nation based on regional division or an absolute Civil War that we saw in Spain and the result of a Franco style government. There is no outcome on a long term basis where America last another 50 years.

There is another option, but it requires being outspoken and taking personal responsibility.

This is a false narrative.

In 1900, whites were 97% of the population of the 10 largest cities.

We were built on a shared European Christian ethnicity.

Why would it have to be based on regions? Look at the county map of presidential elections. With a small number of exceptions, the blue counties are coastal California and the big cities. Give them half of California and let them move there.

I agree that it wouldnt have to be based on regions, but regional unions would help cultivate a shared unity. If there were to be a disunion, I could envision a cultural union based on the preservation of the nations in defense against a common enemy...

Here in heavily armed civilian land... things are peaceful and normal. Covid 19 has gotten the middle finger, bidness is booming again, and there are no buildings on fire or looted.

As you can see.. it pains me greatly to live in an area some snobs would turn their nose up at just a week ago.
