That's much better.
Needs Colorado on there somewhere too. That place is a blue oasis surrounded by a sea of red bullshit states on all sides.
They elected Hoedirt Boebert... no entry.
You say "they" as if states don't have different districts. Boebert came from a right-leaning district, but was so toxic she couldn't get re-elected there. So she had to move to an even more right district in order to win.
Add to that she's actually a transplant from Florida, and it starts to make sense.
Yeah. Her saying "don't you know who I am!?" and flipping off the workers after getting kicked out for refusing to stop vaping indoors and near pregnant women and performing public sexual acts at a musical where kids were in attendance... That's pure Florida.
Not to the south, NM is just as blue if not more so.
If I recall new Mexico is the only state that had a full Democrat victory this last election with not one republican winning a single seat so pretty blue
I propose we get CO and they can have WI, MI and PA
Hey take some cities as enclaves too. Blue cities in red states don't deserve that kind of punishment.
What about the liberals in conservative areas? We all gonna hold off because they're gonna get eaten by the dogs, too? What about liberal kids of conservative parents?
Just like now where they can all move to Massachusetts, under this plan, they can move to Canada
Archipelago?
I think the red area should get alberta, maybe saskatchewan too. And I would personally like to see the Alaska pan handle transferred to B.C.
Realistically this wouldn't be possible, at least in the way most people assume. It's hard for people to just uproot their whole lives and move to another state (though it's easier these days), a partition like this would mean leaving behind a lot of liberal minded people, who are too poor or too rooted in a place.
Eggs and omelettes.
So would the genocide be the eggs or the omelets?
Neither, but I suspect you know your argument is in bad faith.
It's better to protect some people than none, and if that means balkanizing the US then that sucks for the blue islands in the Bible Belt but we are in crisis and that means triage.
Sounds like you are in a nice situation.
It'd be a lot nicer if Alabama wasn't dragging it down.
Illinois can stay.
What? No!
Okay, maybe everything more than 60 miles outside of Chicago can stay. Deal?
Nope sorry. Janesville has to stay too but we’ll take Madison and Milwaukee.
Fip off fips
Alaska would join Canada at this point I bet.
Considering them petitioning to leave Oregon, I feel like eastern Oregon would be very upset about this
I'm sure the sane people in those new Canadian provinces would want universal healthcare, but would they be willing to give up their guns? I think most of Canada is appalled at the gun violence in the US and would make giving up guns an unconditional requirement of joining Canada.
