YAWKEY— For more than two years, Helen Swire Comer put her own life on hold.The Lincoln County resident quit her job managing a bank to care for her aging parents, who wanted to spend their final years at home instead of in a nursing facility.Her nights were often interrupted by emergency room visit...
And yet, to many in those states this will be the fault of the Democrats.
ETA: How predictable.
Because they are chudservatives, that’s why
This is what happens when Fox is basically the default news channel in your town. All you hear is Trump blaming Biden.
You rarely hear the truth. 1) The Iran war raised the price of oil and fertilizer. 2) Tariffs are paid by you, not them. 3) Undocumented migrants are the low-paid labor for the ag industry, and Trump is deporting them.
No sane person would do this shit if they wanted to make groceries cheap.

I had to do a double take at the date on that link. Unreal, yet totally believable unfortunately.
I will never understand how vindictive and disgusting Conservatives are.
Biden went out of his way to help red states because he didn’t want people to suffer. And those people blame him for the current president fucking them over.
Let’s just fucken split already and let them have their backwater country. Its not even worth it anymore. You cannot help these people. There is no cognitive function left to save.
Too Mutch inbreed !
Individual US states cant leave peacefully, or the US west coast would have long ago. Our federal laws wont allow it-- its basically declaring war. Except for texas, they made a deal when they joined that they can leave when they want to.
If Canada/Britain or Mexico would agree to take the defecting states on they’d stand a snowballs chance, but otherwise not so much.
Its all good, kinda feels like collapse is coming anyway. Can’t leave what doesn’t exist anymore.
Honestly a civil war would be much more plausible if it was geographically based. However majority of the skew is urban vs rural which makes it a lot messier and less likely.
So a post-apocalyptic fantasy rural frontier/urban civilization center split is fully within the realm of.possibility.
With US cities and states beibg pretty autonomous most things considered (for now at leas), it could easily happen without the US splitting as far as the world map goes.
In reality it’s gonna look like random mass shootings.
They’re a threat together and a greater threat apart.
How so?
Wouldn’t red states economies collapse if they were no longer subsidized/financed by the federal government and blue states?
They’ll always be good for cheap labor and no regulations. Think how we spent the last half century outsourcing everything to China or India, it’ll be even better outsourcing to a third world hellhole close to home
Yes, and they’d presumably lash out against the “blue haired woke liberals” in neighboring states. They’d be a raid-based society by the end of year one.
They would become violent almost immediately
And then, what? They sit there and quietly starve to death?
They would naturally come to terms with the practical limitations of their ideology and change accordingly. Or scapegoat their neighbors and go on a murderous rampage.
Ok
Keep your friends close and your enemies closer.
