    They want a whole separate nation. People are even actively relocating to rural areas to “get out of woke blue states”, just like people are fleeing red. It’s surreal to watch, and I can’t take my eyes off the train wreck that is American society.

      I can’t blame people for leaving states that use the apparatus of government to enforce bigotry.

      I know that’s why Republicans are so keen to enforce bigotry in the first place, but I can’t blame people for going places where they won’t be oppressed.

      Let texas push to separate and watch every Blue state leave and form the new coastal countries in the next heartbeat.

      That may be true but those “woke” blue states are the ones that add money to the US treasury and the red states are the ones that deplete it.
