 If only this could make its way onto the cover of the New York Times… https://image.nostr.build/e48b66d5e262357f031826737bd1ddaaeb5e04c8086805c429bf61816db4b8cb.jpg  
 We need NYT readers to warm up to the idea of secession. Having them focussed inwards is the only thing that might save the rest of the world from their stupidity. 
 They’ll only consider it if they lose. But if they win and the other side tries it, they’ll start a hot civil war lol 
 Sadly very true. A Trump win with California seceding first would be best. Not sure how they’d go hot if it’s Texit though because they wouldn’t win that and it would still be better for the rest of the world, albeit messy stateside. 
 California will just fall into the ocean eventually. 
 Not from climate change 🤣

We haven’t seen a massive earthquake in the US for a long while though. Splitting them off into an island would be a good result for humanity. 
 God forbid those who CAN actually seceed suggest actually DOING it 
 Bitcoin and Nostr 
 Yes we can individually seceed 
 Texit was up for a referendum vote in November last I checked. 
 You could have put “I’m in danger” in both and it would have worked too
