      Trickalicious - I don't think it is fair that the division rivals get to play the Lions twice. The Lions NEVER get to play the Lions, let alone twice.

        So, what does that mean in the context of the question? Do your "ideals of the USA!" allow peaceful secession, or advocate violence against any who would wish to secede? 'Cause I've heard arguments for both under the banner of the "ideals of the USA."
        The only thing missing from that Marvin Jones touchdown reversal is that it wasn't a first round playoff game.

        • You literally can’t secede. It’s like impossible. Literally impossible.

            I advocate States seceding from the SuperState.

            I then advocate counties seceding from the states.

            I then advocate townships seceding from the county.

            I further advocate individuals seceding from the township.

            A peaceful transition from centralization to decentralization.
            Hmm. Good luck with that. Does your view or whatever it is that you are advocating exist in the world today? Would love to understand how it could possibly work. Doesn't seem at all feasible to me.

                    Do you mean it's against the "law?" Or do you mean it's an invite to be slaughtered? I don't know what to derive from that statement.

                      You don't need to wish me luck. Many are talking about the danger of a "revolution" or a "civil" war on the horizon. I don't know if it'll happen, but we've both acknowledged that these are, let's say, tense times. There are active secession movements going on... really, there always has been. They just go nowhere. But if things get worse, you're going to see more secession talk. And at a certain point, someone's gonna be serious about it.

                      If it came down to war or secession, I've made it clear what I advocate. Our best hope would for peace would be secession. I have only asked if the people here would support peaceful secession, or if they'd support the use of violence by the SuperState to prevent it.

                      So far, the silence (especially among the most vocal of you here...) is a bit of an indicator...

                      • Secession sounds great in theory, until people realize that nobody in what was your former "nation" wants anything to do with you anymore - even more than you don't want to have anything to do with them. People underestimate how much infrastructure is involved in running your own independent sovereign state.

                        • That doesn't answer the question.

                          • It wasn't meant to answer a question. Just to make people think long and hard about throwing around the word Secession.

                            • I asked questions as I don't think it's feasible. I would like to know more and study a real life example. Is there one?

                              • Let’s be honest, it’s a load of pie in the sky bullshit.

                                Let’s stick to the real things that are happening in the here and the now.

                                There’s enough of them.
