  1. The elections are rigged. It's clear at this point we are not going to be able to use the democratic process to influence the government. This effectively makes it a system of authoritarians instead of a system of representatives.

  2. Even if the process was not rigged. Trump has proven beyond a reasonable doubt that the deep state is too entrenched, too bloated, and too corrupt to be changed. If somebody as proficient and charismatic as Trump couldn't dislodge them, nobody can.

  3. The blue states have been orders of magnitude more fiscally reckless than the red states, and are going bankrupt. Meanwhile, the left has singled loudly that they intend to bail them out. That means the red states are going to be paying crushing taxes, either in the form income taxes, or the inflation tax, or both to bail out the bad decisions of the blue states. If we stay in the union, we will effectively be their slaves.

  4. The blue states have singled loudly that they hate us, and we have made it clear that we hate them. They have called us racist, and fascists. What you do to racists and fascists? They have made it clear that they are already at war with us, because they consider us "white patriarchal oppressors", who deserve to be attacked and oppressed. If we stay in, we have basically guaranteed ourselves to be the eternal victim in an abusive relationship. Their intent is clear, they they have singled that they intend to attack our churches, our small businesses, turn our schools into indoctrination camps, take our gun rights, force our jobs to China, and tax and regulate us to death.

In sum, the choice is ours, but to stay in would be suicide.

Secession? That's a funny way to spell revolution.

"Revolution" and "secession" are two different things.

Revolutions are for communists. They involve replacing the government in a specific country. Examples include the two Russian revolutions of 1917 (the worst thing that happened in human history, ever), the French revolution, European revolutions of 1848, etc.

Secession is (re)establishing more voluntary local rule through independence from a larger more tyrannical government. The US "revolution" wasn't actually a revolution! It was a secession!

George Washington's secession from the British Empire wasn't one iota different from what the South attempted in the 1860s, and what we WILL accomplish in the 2020s!
