In Ed Kilgore\u2019s screed<\/a> he talks about the undeniable fact that the two Americas are permanently opposed to each other on almost every issue and that we basically despise each other.\u00a0 Of course, he describes it from the point of view of a Leftist and paints our people as the unenlightened, unintelligent and immoral side of the argument but at least he isn\u2019t claiming that we don\u2019t speak for half the country.\u00a0 And he doesn\u2019t pretend that we will come around to his way of thinking.\u00a0 They hate us and we\u2019re learning to hate them right back.<\/p>\n

From my point of view the Left saying out loud that we are \u201cnot of the body\u201d is a very good thing.\u00a0 And I hope they start talking about getting rid of us by dumping the flyover states and going it alone.\u00a0 That would be the single best thing that could possibly happen to us.\u00a0 I don\u2019t think it\u2019s likely.\u00a0 I think they know we would be phenomenally better off without them and they would be in a really bad place without us.\u00a0 But even if it\u2019s just talk, I think they should be encouraged to talk this way.\u00a0 If enough of the stupider people in their camp started repeating this idea enough maybe we could make them think it\u2019s their idea and stampeded the whole thing through before they have a chance to wise up the idiots.<\/p>\n

The way to assist in the process of convincing the Left that we should move apart is to resist every policy that benefits them and make the red states as uncomfortable as possible for their ilk.\u00a0 I think the red state governors should do everything possible to make their cities less appealing to Leftists.\u00a0 Whatever policies the cities have promulgated should be reviewed at the state level and vetoed if they tend to attract Leftists to the red states.\u00a0 The first thing I can think of is wean the population off welfare.\u00a0 Not just temporarily but permanently.\u00a0 The next thing I\u2019d go after is the public schools and colleges.\u00a0 Review their curricula and delete all the woke and LGBTQ stuff.\u00a0 Hungary just enacted a law banning the proselytizing of minors on the homosexual lifestyle.\u00a0 It was hilarious when the gay members of the EU governments started howling about this law.\u00a0 That\u2019s how I know it\u2019s an effective law.\u00a0 The public schools and state colleges are funded with our tax dollars.\u00a0 Pulling that money out of the hands of Leftists is the single largest impact we can have in the Culture War.\u00a0 Imagine if we could effectively end the programming of our children against us.\u00a0 That alone might win the war.<\/p>\n

And most importantly the states can nullify the anti-Constitutional federal laws and policies.\u00a0 Banning affirmative action and allowing individuals to sue corporations for curtailing free speech on the social media platforms would put the hurt on those companies who have jumped on the woke bandwagon.\u00a0 These things would be the best way to re-establish the constitutional basis for American freedom.\u00a0 Without freedom of speech and religion and association we are not really Americans, we\u2019re prisoners of war, we\u2019re strangers in our own land.<\/p>\n

So, yeah, I agree with Ed Kilgore, strange as that is to say.\u00a0 We are two nations and we should be separated and allowed to go our own ways.\u00a0 It\u2019s no different from Czechoslovakia becoming Slovakia and the Czech Republic.\u00a0 Who knows, after we part ways we might find we can be very good neighbors.\u00a0 They can buy our food products and minerals and we can buy their movies, at least after they\u2019ve been put through a wash cycle to remove the filth.\u00a0 We can even divide up the nuclear arsenal.\u00a0 Although with their strong aversion to all things masculine maybe they better just let us take care of those scary things.\u00a0 Wouldn\u2019t want to upset their troops during their drag queen war maneuvers.<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s agree to disagree and get on with the divorce.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
