“When you break it down below the State level, there’s a lot of purple. States turned Red or Blue based on small percentages, for the most part.”
Break it down to voting precinct, and there’s a sharp division at the edge of urban areas. “Secession”/”CWII” would be urban vs rural. There can’t be secession, precisely because it’s an archipelago of Leftist islands amid a sea of conservatism (which makes sense: people living like sardines need pervasive rules to survive/function, dispersed individuals just want to be left alone).
If the Left would just get it thru their heads that rural types don’t need/want pervasive laws, and function on a different set of needs/supplies, we’d all get along much better. Just quit bossing the “red areas” around.
I doubt that will ever happen.
Some people just like to tell others how to live.
On the small-scale end of the spectrum, you’ve got the petty tyrants on the Board of the Homeowners Association.
On the other end, you’ve got the great mass-murderers of history.
