This, and soon you may need to extend it to Jews

80% of us didn't

I'll never forgive my fellow Americans for electing this utter piece of shit. They enabled an entire government full of the worst human beings imaginable and most Americans are too ignorant to even understand what they've done.

Not just them. The swing voterd

Problem is Vance and Miller

And another segment of the country that were stupid

Canada doesn't have that

Well, one of many flaws but the biggest one

It ended up creating a tyranny of the minority.

It's the US system that is the problem, rurals have disproportionate power to urban areas.

It's by far the biggest flaw in the US Constitution.

Just these states will need it if they leave the US to join a new common market to replace what was lost.

Which is the big problem.

Hell, they themselves have strong gun laws in CA.

You can:t legally buy an AR there, you need permits too

The issue is and always has been the NRA and healthcare lobby.

And yes California has tried, but the SCOTUS has blocked it

I mean Washington state IS culturally linked, as are New England and New York.

200 years of it, there are families there on both sides and cultural ties. California probably not as much so.

Fair point, but they are also minorities in those states. Like there is a reason WA, OR, and CA are so blue

Because let's be real here, there's no reason for them to stick around when they can do everything the feds can do.

21.09.2025 00:42 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

Because an independent California, Oregon, and Washington again makes too much geographic sense not to integrate when they leave

Thing is most blue states WANT universal healthcare and gun control, the problem are the Republicans

This is after they leave the Union

More so a full EU style arrangement with you and Mexico. Basically NAFTA but with less hostile neighbors

And let's be pragmatic here, an independent California + West Coast would create a massive land bridge that would facilitate a lot of trade between CAN and MX

1968 also didn't have a malignant narcissist trying to dismantle the federal government

Which pretty much means they'll be able to go their own way.

I see a North American Union happening if so

Though it might be pyrrhic seeing all the damage the Russo Ukrainian war did to Russia

And then soon, they will have no need for the feds period

I suspect the US will break up itself, and the result will be an NAU, with the successor states

Thing is even those are being gutted

If I have to guess, we see a North American Union emerge

Well they have started with public health
