It’s going to take a revolution and probably the break up of the US into individual countries

It would be really funny in a heartless way to see all the red states collapse. Big "I fucking told you so" opportunity.

Unfortunately, it would take a long time and a lot of innocent people would die. Also they'd probably start wars

Blue states just need to stop giving money to the federal government and the red states will very quickly get back in line.

How do you suppose that would work? Functionally?

[-] Drusas@fedia.io 5 points 2 days ago

I agree with the first part, but you are wrong that they just fall in line.

[-] 13igTyme@piefed.social 3 points 2 days ago

Cut off all the money and red states will buckle.

Someone is writing upthe horror movie script as we speak

[-] Z745812939054@lemmy.zip 10 points 2 days ago

i'd be impressed if any fictional horror story ever even came close to how horrifying real life is

So, the thing the tech oligarchs said they are intentionally destroying the country to do?

We could round up conservatives and put them in camps instead, if that's more palatable for you.
