We'll see how far left the left goes. I'm sure we'll continue to live with the pointless overseas wars, countless abortions, wealth stolen by government, silencing of free speech, and call it "peace" for a while longer but that might change in the future. Who knows?

I'm supposed to justify secession from the left to a leftist? I tried doing that earlier in the thread and got "Orange Man Bad!"

ETA: I'm out. This is going in circles.

This is why you’re dumb. You’re justifying your insanity to a Centrist. If I were just to outline Richard Nixon’s policies to you, you would call him a Leftist pussy.

To be fair to whoever said that, maybe that is the most complex sentence you are capable of understanding.

Secession would be hilarious. You have any idea how poor the south is? Country of welfare.

It's a great idea. Divorce is allowed in the case of irreconcilable differences and what divides us politically is certainly irreconcilable.

Unfortunately the Democrat pharaohs won't let our people go.

I just want away from democrats in my life

They’re insane and many, unbeknownst to them, are enabling communism

I don’t want them in my daily life, I don’t want them in government, don’t want them running schools and don’t want them in my country

I don’t care how they go, they’re cancer and need “treatment!”

It's impractical. The Global Democratic Authoritarian Socialist Republic of California would bring China in to finance their crashing economy...and what...the adjoining *Republic*/Constitutional America builds a Wall?

Does California get their fair share of the nukes? Military armaments? Treasury Assets?

There are so many fatalistic, and problematic aspects of Secession that it is essentially a non-starter. There will be civil war before that.

Its a possibility, certainly with an influx of low IQ socialist government leeches every day. It could manifest in several ways, as a clean break, or as a band of states who decide to exercise more of their own authority and defy federal laws(probably a truce with the federal government that results in less or no federal funds).

Leftists have seen scenarios like this coming, which is why they are desperately attempting to turn states like Texas purple.

On a side note, can you imagine the improvement of the state it was somehow able to completely stop entitlement payments, federal subsidies etc and devote that money towards maintenance/building of infrastructure. One youd have millions of the worst of your population leave the state and youd have many more than that of productive people moving in.

Hes one of these leftists that truly believe hes significantly smarter than this board. He considers those who are staunchly conservative(especially those who are so on social issues) to be dumb. Probably one of these cats who goes to reddit and/or DU and talks about how this board is full of inbreds and retards.
