Disgraceful that Indiana isn’t in the Midwest.

From the desk of Benjamin Harrison:

"Amen to that!"

[New Kvenland]

I am a supporter of the peaceful and amicable breakup of the States and anyone advising you to the contrary is a deceitful Arizonan.

[Durius]

The EU focuses on achieving an ever closer union and paving the way for federalization.

Some genius in the US: the US should become a regional organization like the EU.

[Chernobyl and Pripyat]

Would it not be better for each individual state to have complete self determination, NS?

This would never happen. If America breaks up, most states would want to join up with like-minded neighbors, as the case was during the Civil War.

You could start by giving back some native lands. Just a couple acres/square meters. You won't even notice it's missing.

We can't agree to cede ideological ground to each other, you think we're going to cede actual ground?

[Portzania]

What happens to people who are half native? Do they get free land? Are they allowed on the lands? How autonomous should native reservation be in the US? I don't know how very autonomous native lands are in the US so I'd like to get some insight from an american.

From what I learned at school, at the moment native reservations can generally make their own rules which is why so many profit from casinos. Not exactly the same autonomy you see in states, but more so than local governments usually would have.

Yes...there's a tribal casino in my area which allows indoor smoking, which is otherwise explicitly forbidden.

Oh ok. Obama started the hate and the US is better off as 50 countries which will magically start working together.

Why is it NSG has a thing for Civil War 2.0?

actually, i was radicalized by biden.

Trump radicalized me.

[San Lumen]

No and this idea is just as dumb as every other time its been proposed.

[Port Caverton]

Same but he turned me into a neocon

Biden turned me into a hyper super bi-fascist with chinese characteristics.

[El Lazaro]

Same but he turned me into a neocon

Biden turned me into a hyper super bi-fascist with chinese characteristics.

Biden made me forget my political views and start ad-libbing everything

[Querria]

I love it when a foreign committee gets to draw some completely ahistorical and arbitrary straight-line borders.

Completely ignored the areas belonging to native American groups.

[Big moist]

Biden turned me into a hyper super bi-fascist with chinese characteristics.

Biden made me forget my political views and start ad-libbing everything

Biden turned me into an radical who drinks the marrow of children and use the skulls of my enemies to pour a cup of blood to the blood god.

Ever since the Obama administration the United States has become increasingly more polarised between the Democrat and Republican party to the point very few politicians, even its own populace, have an overlap in beliefs.

Talks of civil war, or the 'Boogaloo' are almost regular conversation among certain groups.

Needless to say, people do not like the federal government unless a politician of their liking is in power. The Trump and Biden administrations have only proven this further. Laws signed by both presidents have been hugely unpopular in red and blue states. Trump's travel bans, transgender military exclusions and Bidens Respect for Marriage Act are two examples of this.

It is safe to say that at any given time at least 50% of the country does not like the federal government.

So why have a federal government? To an outsider looking in, all i can see is a politically stagnant nation held back by a deeply divided congress that relies on a party majority to accomplish anything. Any so called 'Bipartisan' bills are normally very lopsided when it comes to votes. I used to be against the idea of a national divorce, now i'm thinking that batshit crazy Marjorie Taylor Greene might have a point as much as that hurts to say.

Would it not be better for each individual state to have complete self determination, NS?

yes

Why would the US balkanize? some states are dependent on the Federal goverment. plus; do you think we will just amalgamate into some EU like polity?

[Bahrimontagn]

And remove the American hedgemon from the world?

Our greatest strength is diversity ((as much as I hate to admit)). Nowhere else in the world will you find a Chinese person serving side by side with a person of color and a white man. Nowhere.
We are home to every ethnic group in the world, and there is no reason to Balkanize a state in which we have not instability since the 30’s and of course the entire first half of our history.))

America is an evil.

There cannot be survival without unity

United we fall, divided we fall

[Querria]

Anybody looking for evidence that NS has become flooded with pro-russian/pro-chinese tankie nonsense, look no further than threads like this.

[Floofybit]

There cannot be survival without unity

United we fall, divided we fall

So then what do you expect happen?
