Trump and Hitler - a comparison

Jimmy Higgins said:

Secession = reactionary even if you think you are right.

And that ignores the minor problem of it isn't particularly feasible. What is the plan, the Non-Contiguous Blue States of America?

You are allowed to post whatever reactionary, but non-violence stuff you want here. The others are free to tell you it isn't constructive, viable, or intelligent.

You did not address my point. Was it reactionary for Czechoslovakia to peacefully divide into two countries? Was it reactionary for Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Ukraine and others to secede from the Soviet Union? Was it reactionary for the colonies to declare independence from Britain? Even if you don’t favor secession, you have no basis for calling the idea “reactionary” unless you adopt a completely non-standard meaning of the word. Also, I advocate peaceful separation, not violence, as even Lincoln said was admissible if all states agreed to it.

As to others here, they are free to think as they like, without you telling them or me what to think or write.

We have to stay and fight. This is not the end of America or its Democratic dream. Our country has faced threats before. It has proven resilient. I post two maps to demonstrate this:

And I add the surest way to change these maps is to ensure he fails. His policies are insane.

Do you know how many different borders there have been in Europe before World War One? I wouldn't use European borders as an argument for dissolving the United States which has been a tad bit more consistent in borders (other than expansion) for 240 years*.

Good luck with that. Peaceful separation kind of like well governed anarchy.

I believe they were called ordinances of secession by the original secessionists.

Interesting, thanks. I thought those (ordinances) would be “town rules” or the like, rather than a declaration by a bunch of States.

Sorry. That’s not possible. Cheato can destroy the entire Country and his idiots will applaud. He can kill everyone in it until there is nobody left but two trumpsuckers, and they’ll thank him.
The only thing Trump can do that will make his suckers unhappy is DIE.
And that’s what he needs to do - soon, before he tries to cancel the ‘28 elections.

It's very likely that in 40 years time people are going to compare vile, incompetent leaders to Trump as opposed to Hitler.
