If NM joined I'd move there in a heartbeat.

They should probably just join back up with Old Mexico and take Colorado too so they are left out cold

[–] Itd4n@ani.social 0 points 2 months ago (4 children)

As much as I would love Colorado to depart the insanity, it will never happen. A ton of the nuclear ICBMs are here and it’s not like Washington will give that up.

When the US falls apart I strongly suspect the nation of Cascadia to form from these states

[–] Sunshine@piefed.ca 0 points 2 months ago

It’s a good way to keep out garbage ICE invasions from LA.

Frank Black dubbed it Calistan in 1994

[–] BigBenis@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago

Technically, only a small section of California is part of the Cascadian region. But so is most of Idaho... And I think just about everybody would be happier if we made that trade.

[–] lectricleopard@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Usually, when people talk about Cascadia as a country, they include British Columbia.

[–] rbos@lemmy.ca 0 points 2 months ago (2 children)

God we have trouble enough with Toronto thinking it's the centre of the world and ignoring BC. We'd have zero influence in Cascadia.

I think blue states should bring in all in-house solutions to cut the middleman White House out of it. States rights!

[–] mean_bean279@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

We did that with CARB and now the feds are trying to stop it after decades of other states signing on because it worked so well here in Cali.

At the very least they need to hire these doctors and scientists that RFK Jr. fired so their wisdom and knowledge don't go to waste!

Oooh, the second US civil war may still be on but not in the way we first thought.

You get more national guard!

Im sure there are parks where they can pick up trash in California, too. Don't worry.

Despite common belief, at least here I'm OR, we dems have A LOT of guns and ammo.

Consider joining Denmark too!

[–] HootinNHollerin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

California has 10x the GDP of Denmark btw

[–] Sunshine@piefed.ca 0 points 2 months ago (3 children)

However Denmark has higher standards ie metric and universal healthcare being in use. Wouldn’t it be better to have more access to the European market?

Shame Nevada turned more purple than blue last year else we could have joined them.

[–] Sunshine@piefed.ca 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Nevada looked at the Republican mess and decided they want shot to themselves in the foot too. Americans are not well.

[–] Blum0108@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago

Right wing Media is cancer

[–] kn0wmad1c@programming.dev 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Nevada joined the coalition back in 2020 during COVID when they had a Democrat governor. Now they have a republican governor who is mostly ineffectual at best and a Trump bootlicker at worst.

Now do this for every issue where the Feds are getting in the way.

With Florida ditching vaccine requirements it looks like the East Coast/West Coast feud is going to pick back up again.

I love how many of us are so down for Cascadia. How do we get this in a vote?

[–] fubarx@lemmy.world 0 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Be a shame if they didn't call it COW. Vaccinated so it doesn't get Mad.
