This is how Texas and other red states will secede from the Union. They're just going to ignore federal laws.

True. They've tried that before. At this moment we're just fighting to make sure the red states will be seceding from the Union rather than being in control of it. Alas it's better to face an insurrection than a regime.

We already live under a regime, capitalism. Who you vote for doesn't matter because the politicians don't work for us. They work for the ruling class. All governments are authoritarian. Democracy doesn't exist under capitalism. I mean, did you vote for Bill Clinton to repeal the Glass-Stegall Act which led to the housing market crash? Did you vote for him to sign NAFTA? That decimated blue collar areas nationwide. Did you vote for Biden to illegally close the border like Trump did? How about Biden building Trump's wall? Did you vote for Biden to mishandle Covid? Just like Trump did. Biden declared the pandemic was over, it's not. In fact, currently 1 in 37 people in the US have Covid and Biden has had it 3 times. Oh, how about genocide? Do you approve of the US funding and facilitating the slaughter of the Palestinians?
