does she mean secession? i believe that is a crime, lady?!

[–] baronvonj@lemmy.world 10 points 1 week ago (3 children)

No she wants to kick out the blue states.

[–] prosecute_traitors@lemmy.zip 32 points 1 week ago (2 children)

the blue states are the ones paying the tab for the looser states though?

Nobody claimed they were smart.

Hey they know that Texas can carry all of them. Right?

[–] pennomi@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Except Texas, pretty much yeah

Texas, without the gerrymandering is close to, if not outright, a blue state.

Blue state here. Good. Kick us out. That way we can stop subsidizing all the moronic sibling-fucking mouth-breathing nazi wannabe amoeba in red states and my tax dollars can do good work here at home instead.

Some folks in Flyover, PA and upstate New York are gonna be real mad about that.

Whats she going to do? Split the Maga states in half so the Maga don't interfere with the Maga agenda?

[–] gointhefridge@lemmy.zip 16 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (2 children)

How will red states get funding for anything? Blue tax dollars support all the failing systems in red states to begin with.

That's why she's framing it as a divorce: she's expecting alimony.

[–] Not_mikey@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 week ago

By defunding the remaining threadbare social safety net for minorities of course.

Becsuse it worked out so well for their side the last time they tried.

[–] Zier@fedia.io 13 points 1 week ago

Divorce is fine by me. MTG can keep trump & his maga cult, we get to keep America. But they have to move to an island away from America. Where do I sign.

She's divorced. Couldn't make her own marriage work. lol.

Calling for the breakup of the United States is treason.

No, you can't secede. You tried this before, you traitorous confederate lizard raping bastards.

[–] TargaryenTKE@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Lizard raping?

[–] etherphon@midwest.social 8 points 1 week ago

I see we're still just totally ignoring the reality of the situation, pretty standard I guess.

[–] mycodesucks@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago

Where do I sign?

Keep you're stupid cunt prayers to your stupid cunt self bitch

[–] Chozo@fedia.io 4 points 1 week ago

Right, because she's had such great success with divorces so far...

[–] sheridan@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

Do we get two Christmases out of it?

Divorce is expensive because it’s worth it.

And it’s worth it to get her out of my country.

[–] Doomsider@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

More unity from the right... Stop the calls for violence already, no more dog whistles, no more veiled threats. We will no longer be terrorized by our politicians. This sickness has to end.

[–] Not_mikey@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 week ago

On one hand, I'm tired of these dipshits holding us back from any sort of progress and would love if we just didn't have to deal with them anymore.

On the other hand, i don't want to leave them be to oppress their minorities and destroy their environment
