The whole national divorce thing is pretty stupid, and while most of the people arguing for it are right-wingers mad that most of us think it’s wrong to hate trans people, the fact that our electoral map is broken up by states, which are then colored either solid red or solid blue, tricks even some reasonable people into thinking it makes sense. When in reality, this is what the country looks like, making clear there are basically no red or blue states.
@arossp Good point. The so-called national divorce might end up like the partition of India and Pakistan in 1947, with forced migration and widespread bloodshed. The resultant red country would be poor, fascist, and armed with nuclear weapons. A wonderful neighbor!
