I feel sorry for the people living in the blue states. No telling how much time they have left until they're stuck there.
Am I saying some sort of split or, God forbid, a civil war is right around the corner? No, but the way these things start is they happen slowly...and then suddenly everything kicks off all at once. Something could happen tomorrow, or it could happen 5, 10, or more years from now, we don't know. Get out of the blue areas while you can.
If a civil war happens it's not going to be the neat, relatively organized fare of the US Civil War. They usually don't happen like that. If you want to see how they usually go look at Spain. If things go hot you don't want to be a non-leftist in a blue area.
In the past 3 years I've had an neighbor from Bosnia retire, sell his place, and move back to the old country and another friend who survived Kosovo doing something similar and moving to south America as his wife is from Chile. Both told me they are seeing the same signs here they saw back in Yugoslavia in the late 80's.
It's more than obvious that the worst case scenario to me is depopulation of the cities by emigration, and "The Troubles" style irregular warfare at best. Frankly, I don't think that's likely given the state of the Biden regime's hard power.
It's amazing how eager the reactionary right are to swallow all the available black pills in the vicinity.

If you ask me, its because a lot of them are ethno-nats or other "right wing authoritarian" types who want their own state of control, and are upset because what they are finding happening is not people losing faith and going to their ideology. Instead, they are going back to their roots and wanting back freedom, liberty, and the American Way. And they hate that because they thought that people would come into their arms running away from the Commies on the Left.
Also, I do wonder if there is some jealousy. Because while they are complaining about the "unstoppable march of the Left" and how we are all doomed unless we go start shooting Leftist in the street like we are all in the Freikorp. While no one was looking Trump Populist types have been taking over local and state level political positions. Which I think is part of the reason you are seeing so much more fight and general "refuse to die" attitude at the State level that isnt there at the Federal level. But based on how the nation works, it will (eventually) work its way up the ladder.

edit: Boy, this sounds alarmist.
Yeah we have been gone. I hope it all kicks off earlier than later so that my kids can have some semblence of a real life not a commie one.

Can you elaborate on those signs, and maybe potentially ways how we can brainstrom to stop them?
