I don’t live in the south anymore, but I grew up there and there’s a lot of it I miss and love. I’d love to save the south, from these backward thinking bigoted motherfuckers who don’t know whether to wind their ass or wipe their watch, who aim to turn it into a christofacist white supremacist hell hole.
If the south includes Texas and Florida, I say let them.
No Civil War necessary.
You stay there, we stay here, we trade until your hellscape is a place we can't trade in, then the northern states adopt the policies Texas just adopted with Mexico.
Should take about 3 years to get there.
Wasn't the last time also about saving some southerners from other southerners?

I can't help but wonder if those Confederate statues were put there as a reminder to all those folk. I mean, it's been just a few months since we started taking them down, and all of a sudden they think civil war is a good idea again.
People deny history even when there are museums about it so I don't think they were really doing anything
When I was a kid, I loved dinosaurs. I rushed through the natural history museum to get to the dino bones because the other shit was boring. Then I had a roommate who was a young-earth creationist (believed the bible was literal history, earth was 5000 years old).
I went through the museum the next year and stopped to read everything.
This comment neither supports nor dispels your comment. It's just something that I thought about when reading your comment. The shocking thing was that the guy was extremely intelligent. Shows what indoctrination does (we were both 18-19yo).
But those colors don’t run and back the blue and has no one even thought of THE PLEDGE?!?!?! And what will we even do at football games?!?! :(
Imagine if you will, that the civil war began the same way it did irl, but then within an hour the federal government drone strikes every Confederate governor and their president leaving them in complete shambles.
Do these idiots think they'll keep the military already existent in their states at the moment? Youd be instantly public enemy #1 and killed so fucking fast
Southern states literally relies on federal dollars to survive.
A house divided against itself, cannot stand. I believe this country cannot endure permanently half liberal and half conservative. I do not expect the Union to be dissolved – I do not expect the house to fall – but I do expect it will cease to be divided. It will become all one thing or all the other.
There are plenty more possibilities than all "liberal" or "conservative". Always have been.
There are, but in the US the only two ideologies with any establishment or infrastructure are (neo) liberalism and the modern conception of conservativism. There is no third ideology that is in a position to compete for supremacy with the other two. For right now, at least, it is a strict, zero sum, winner-take-all competition between liberalism and conservatism.
