The blue states would prosper. The red states would not. The red states would beg for re unification within a few years.Remember that time a bunch of libertarians tried to take over a town and shortly after they were overrun with bears? It would be like that but on a much larger scale (10)

Really!? OMG. I'm still laughing! (-3)

Blue states have enough farms though. (-4)

I'm not sure that you understand that all that red is where nobody lives, except the uneducated, low class people who don't realize democratic policies actually benefit them.https://preview.redd.it/gakmou709uie1.jpeg?width=4624&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cfc966e5449783c81781bde6c91106b3fce412d5 (1)

Those "uneducated, low class people" grow all your food, numbnuts. Nobody lives there except miles and miles of crops. Have you never been outside of a major city?Without them, you'd get hunted for food.Seriously, ask yourself what some random farmer in the Midwest needs from you. You have nothing of value to them except money that they mostly reinvest to grow more food โ€” FOR YOU. (-3)

You have a child's way of viewing complex issues. Food shortages would never happen. Surprise, blue states grow shit too. They also buy, and pragmatic red states would be more than happy to sell locally rather than export.Nukes, this is a joke, right. This more sounds like $Trump bullshit. Go ahead, picture one single nuke on our continent. Just one, anywhere. There are too many analogies to dumb this down; ya don't shit where you get your food, dip ur pen in the company inkwell, etc. The result would be catastrophic both human and commercial. Those farmers you brag so much about, their corn immediately has no market. Drown in their own corn if you will.The truth is somewhere near this; the large blue and red states would be fine. The remaining dregs will need to figure out how to sell their worthiness or will simply be absorbed by the larger ones. (0)

For being so smug, you sure are dumb. The blue do grow crops, but they absolutely grow less than they consume. Feel free to look it up, but if you don't think you need to educate yourself before looking stupid again, just think about the population densityโ€ฆcrazy concept. And these pragmatic red states wouldn't be selling food to the opposing side during a war. That's actually the dumbest thing you said in your first paragraph. No one bragged about farmersโ€ฆit's a simple fact that is extremely relevant. One that you're proving needed to be said. As to the nukes though. Our nukes aren't for offense. As we all know, we made that mistake once, and we're still suffering from it and the testing of nukes. I mentioned them as they're a deterrent to other nuclear powers. Of which, there's two big ones across the pacific. Completely missing the point and responding in a condescending manner while being completely wrong is what sounds like Trump stupidity. Nearly every country of any notable si... (2)

Our country is very interconnected and unfortunately it would be an ugly war for us to split. (4)

I know a few guys that have actively called for civil war over the last 8 years. The way they say these words so casually terrifies me. I've listened to a lot of Dan carlins hardcore history and he speaks on what happens to civilians during war time and this terrifies me. Boys are conscripted or killed off so they won't cause problems in the future wife's and daughters turned into s*x slaves or r*ped and murder. I think we have a very idealized vision of what war is because the United States has not had a peer to peer battle in a long time. This would not end well. (4)

I don't think it's the same at allThe civil war was about slavery and federalism, mostly slaveryI think the current climate is very broad imo (1)

Regardless of the specifics of that era, the precursors of a society becoming polarized to the point of hating those who disagree with them is the same. This time, instead of slavery, it's the poor and disenfranchised that are suffering. And the level of greed in today's society is no less than it was then, in fact it's worse. And we just have to look at reproductive rights to see that federalism is being slowly choked to death. America is being wedged apart, with the divide getting wider every day. (1)

Does Canada go to the red country or the blue country though?
