We don't need to breakup the United States, we just need to divide the states we already have. I wouldn't object to our megacities being turned into their own states and freeing the red areas surrounding them from their tyranny. These cities already control their statewide elections for their governor's mansions and senators so it would free those up, often their mayors have more power than the state governors anyway, and it wouldn't affect the house seats of these areas as it would still be districted relatively the same way.

If all truth were revealed, I would bet good money that very few people vote in big cities ... they just don't give a fuck.

Big cities are solidly blue because that's where Evil learned it could steal votes and stuff the ballot boxes the easiest in this modern era.

I would half agree with this. A lot of people vote in big cities but a lot of people that don't vote also vote in big cities without a doubt. The white, upper-middle-class woke crowd; the 20-35-year-old professional useless people that exist to meaninglessly hump each other without ever starting life or a family; the over 40 single cat ladies living in a $2200 a month studio apartment... these people vote and they vote for all of the low-income black and Hispanic communities that surround them, too. Blue cities are incubators for mental illness, hedonism, and nihilism. They need to be isolated--quarantined, some may say--from the healthy parts of America. Their ballot-stuffing wouldn't matter at all if it was just the city whose electoral votes they controlled. That they swing the other 99% of the counties in their state is why it is effective.

My point was that the "votes" cast in big cities, if truth were known, were probably fraudulently cast ... i.e. real turn-out is so damned low, that the machine can just dump whatever fake votes they need into the cities and no one notices.

See how easily/quickly they were able to produces shit-loads for GA and PA? With minimal effort? Shows that they've not only been practicing, but are a well-greased machine...

This is an excellent idea and I think should happen right after Washington DC gets statehood.
