"National Divorce" - is it time to split up?

[Occam's Banana]

A QUARTER of all Americans say it's time for the U.S. to split into different nations

According to a new poll, 25% of Americans say the country needs to be split into two separate nations. [Actually, the poll question only specifies "separate countries", not necessarily "two" of them - although "two" might be inferred from the wording. Disunion would probably involve more than two, if only for reasons of geography and demographics. - OB]

This is insane. [No, it isn't. What's insane is wanting to be or remain in political union with people who hate and despise you. - OB]

It's also not surprising.

Here was the question that the poll (from Just The News and Scott Rasmussen) posed:

"Some have suggested that the Red and Blue States (Republican-leaning states and Democratic-leaning states) should split into separate countries," said the poll. "Would you favor or oppose splitting the Red and Blue States into separate countries?"​

Of those who supported this national divorce, 11% were strongly in favor. While 52% were strongly opposed (with another 10% slightly opposed), having 1-in-10 people thinking the Union isn't worth saving is a big deal.

Here's some other interesting demographic data [PDF]:

• Men were more likely to support separation (16%) compared to women (7%).
• Given the media's narrative on MAGA boomers and their whiteness, you'd expect that older white guys would be the first in line for this civil divide. The reverse is actually true. Those over 55 were less likely to support national separation compared to younger whippersnappers.
• White individuals were less likely to support separation (23%) compared to blacks (28%), Hispanics (34%), and other ethnic minorities (27%)
• Interestingly enough, there wasn't an insane difference between registered Republicans and Democrats – 32% to 22% respectively.

Where it got interesting was in the area of ideology and faith. People who were either "very conservative" or "very liberal" were WAY more likely to favor a split, at 43% and 33% respectively. Only 3% of those who consider themselves to be "somewhat liberal" supported the idea.

The Empire, directly responsible for the NWO, has nation-built all around the globe. There is no stopping it. What makes them think a few states will be allowed to "split up"?

Oh.

Well.

Never mind, then.

You may as well spill it, now that you have my curiosity piqued - it won't be long before AI prevents any such thoughts!

Whatever, dude.

I seceded like 50 times last week. Lots of others have been seceding too.

Stop watching the lame-stream media and start getting out there and seceding.

Should read "of Cuomo the huomo".

That would be too quick a transition from "Make America Great Again" to "Make America Break" ...

Would also reinforce Never-Trumper's narratives like this on top of other implications wrt our standing as no.1 defender of freedoms around the globe:

This is not like the Schisms we have seen in the past.

This is a TECHNOCRACY.

It wont matter what country you live in, or if you live in an area that was formerly a State of the Republic. The State formerly known as Texas, or Rhode Island, or where ever, it does not matter.

Everyone will still use the same Tech. Google. Apple. Microsoft. Those are your REAL OWNERS. So long as the people choose FACEBOOK over FREEDOM, their ignorance will enslave everyone because they empower the SLAVE OWNERS.

This is NEW SLAVERY.

If you want a meaningful separation from ANYTHING, then get rid of Google and Facebook, and pretty much everyone in Congress and the Supreme Court.

If my state or counties chose to leave I would support that .

I've got to secede my garden this year. Anyone know of some good secede for yards with hot climates and high water tables?


Oh, secede. Only 25%? Looks like we have some ways to go! Let's start having secession parties. I'm not kidding.

You're not wrong here, and this is perhaps the biggest "gotcha" they have on everyone.
Still, I want secession.

The entire concept of government needs reworking. Local voluntary communities, spread out over the land with no overall State is the only way humanity can govern and still protect individualism. Any other way and eventually humanity finds itself right where we are now. It's happened before, it'll happen again as long as humanity finds reasons to divide itself from each other.

Doesn't work. Like minded people are not necessarily in geographic proximity. You would have to Balkanize America, which isn't happening. All talk.

Dont have to have perfectly aligned minded people, just have to agree that the point is to live as a free being and to allow others to do the same. Unfortunately it seems historically that humanity only remembers this when in the early years after major calamity.

This is possible for a good start. As an Agorist, I do it every day ;-)
