Should we have a national divorce?

[Raze]

Recently Marjorie Taylor Greene tweeted she supports a national divorce

Polling data finds that 50 percent of Trump voters and 40 percent of Biden voters supported a national divorce

ReasonTV has hosted a debate on the topic:

TITLE: National Divorce? A Soho Forum Debate

Americans agree on almost everything, this makes no sense.

That’s exactly what Russia and China would want.  Nice try, Marge.  They don’t call it the United States of America for nothing.  It’s the political clowns like MGT, Ted Cruz, etc etc who fuck everything up.

[aurum]

This will never work. She is olympic level stupid.

It sounds like a good idea in theory, but the reality is that it would be way too complicated to do because of the fact that no state is completely blue or completely red. Each and every state in the country has a mix of blue areas and red areas. For example, the cities in California are blue while its rural towns are red. Some of the suburbs in the state are red and some of the other suburbs in the state are blue.

In fact, every city in every state is blue even in southern solid red states such as Jackson, Mississippi. Most rural towns throughout the whole country are red even in northern solid blue states like some of the rural towns in upstate New York. Some suburbs in a red state are blue and others are red within that same state.

Similarly, some suburbs in a blue state are red and other blue within that same state. Furthermore, not everybody living in a blue city is a Democrat, not everyone living in a red city is a Republican, not everybody living in a blue rural town is a Democrat, not everyone living in a red rural town is a Republican, not everybody living in a blue suburb is a Democrat, not everyone living in a red suburb is a Republican.

Plus, how about the fact that Independent voters makeup the largest percentage of voters in this country? According to a gallup poll from "December 17, 2020, 31% of Americans identified as Democrats, 25% identified as Republican, and 41% as Independent. Additionally, polling showed that 50% are either 'Democrats or Democratic leaners' and 39% are either 'Republicans or Republican leaners' when Independents are asked 'do you lean more to the Democratic Party or the Republican Party?'"

Simple, don’t split up by state, split up by county or congressional district.

As for the republicans who remain in blue areas, democrats who remain in red areas, and independents, I don’t see how thst would become anymore of an issue than it already is.

[Hardkill]

You mean have each county or congressional district be its own country?

If every area in the country has a mix of Democrats, Republicans, and Independents then how are you going to be able to evenly split up regions or areas of the country?

   Not to mention that there willalso be changes to how the democratic system would be run if the left, middle and right divorced by nation.

   They should just take a chill pill, slow down, maybe watch some Actualized.org videos, maybe read articles by Daniel Schmachtenberger at www.concilienceproject.com, who has a great article on good faith communication and information warfare BTW.

   Maybe read some erotica and relax too. Too much political bipartisanship and polarisation, too serious. Both siees need to fap once in a while.

Imagine if everyone in America watched porn a lot more, read more erotica, masturbated a lot more, and had a lot more sex and and all of that became the key to bringing the country back together.
