The United States as we knew it is officially fucked. The Constitution is defunct, the courts don't do their job or actively destroy it, the government is made up of people selected by algorithms or at best just tolerated to be voted in, and the military is cucked beyond repair. Anyone hoping for a comeback whereby we reverse all of that is out of their mind. That ship has sailed. Trump was the last best hope and he barely made a dent. Now that will make it so that someone like him can never even get close to power ever again. They are running this country into the ground and nothing will stop them.

Except Texas. That's the last hope for freedom. That's the only state with enough of a secession movement to bother with, where there's enough conservative control to actually make it happen. So we need to be pushing like hell for that, so there's at least one place left on Earth where we can hope to live in freedom. We also need to push for certain stipulations if it does indeed happen. Namely the whole notion of tolerating the left. Can't happen again. Can't repeat the mistakes of the Founding Fathers. All democrats, socialists, communists, whatever should be banned from a new Texas government. Hopefully that will encourage them to leave the state flat out. And voting or taking part in government should be something earned through hard work and sacrifice, not simply a right anyone gets simply for breathing. These two actions would serve to protect against corruption and propaganda better than anything else.

Best case scenario, Texas leaves and takes some neighboring states with it. Eventually enough sign on to the new system so as to rival or surpass the remaining US states. Eventually, the US collapses under its own corruption and Texas absorbs them all and reforms USA 2.0, all without firing a shot. This isn't a far fetched idea if you know anything about history. Crazier things have happened.

Why do I have to keep saying this. Secession, per the Supreme Court, is not constitutional.

What does that mean? You need an amendment to the constitution that makes it legal to secede.

How do we do that? The best way is to have a constitutional convention of the states. 34 states to have it, 38 states to adopt it. But, if you have a constitutional convention that can adopt a secession amendment, then you have a constitutional convention that can fix the shit that makes the people want to secede and preserve the union and the constitution.

Why do people insist on seceding now instead? They want to be forever branded traitors, if they survive the carpet bombing, executions, and being turned in or murdered by their neighbors for being a traitor.

Secession without it being constitutional is only worth the sacrifice, struggle, hardships, and risks, if at least half the states want to secede after a failed attempt to make it constitutional first. Then, it would be the last resort, and most necessary.
