      Nope. Right-wing ideology exists for one reason and one reason only - to protect power and privilege. We can’t leave reactionary politics behind because the people that benefit from it and are protected by it literally owns everything - including the violent goon squads.

        Just because you look at a black and white map… Or red and blue… it doesn’t tell the whole story. Even in the strongest blue states there is still a significant portion of red voters, and vice versa. If you divide the country up you are dooming countless people to living in a less democratic society. Historically this has happened before, typically due to religion, and as far as I can tell, has never helped. It had bread extremism and regional instability which drags down everyone around you.
