Lol. Animalistic. I’m one of the most empathetic to both sides of the political opinions on this site. I’m the kumbaya jelly. @Jeruba mentioned being fearful of civil war on another Q and no one blinked an eye. I guess maybe she worded it better, she does have a fantastic way with words.
It’s just a question about which state do you think would be a good fit for you. It’s not about getting people to #riseup! I criticize those encourage such things like the alt-right groups.
I have a friend who lives here in The Villages who thinks about moving because all of her neighbors are Trumpers. I think that’s nuts. My neighbor on my right is a Trumper, and we love him and his wife and would do anything for them.
I’m completely against the extreme division, anger and hate I am seeing.
Now, to answer my own question, I have told my husband for years to renew his is Mexican passport. Just in case we ever needed to flee, although that would not necessarily be my first choice I like it as a plan C. I think I’m more of a flight than fight person. If violence actually started breaking out I might seriously consider moving to a state that was calm or to another country.
I don’t think we will have a civil war, but people need to WAKEUP and stop being so manipulated by propaganda and be nicer to each other.
If you message me I’ll give you a link to a short lecture I attended recently about the media and politics. You might see something in it that surprises you about what your side does.
I think if states seriously wanted to secede, most likely this time the central government would say good riddance.
