Are there any secessionist movements you support?

[rosebull]

Well, the south states of the US i guess. Not because i share any of their values but because of the obvious difference in values between them and the northern states. Why force two people who think nothing alike to share borders? They obviously, still to this day dont agree on a single issue and their politics are extremely polarized as a product of that.

You're severely misinformed on what southern states think, but it's a pretty common ignorance

Ah yes, the try to Tofino/Uke to live in the woods is a rite of passage here.

What high school did your girlfriend go to? If she was trve kvlt it must have been Vic High, I don't think anywhere other schools have the requisite satanic goth spawning pits in their basements.

For reference I went to Oak Bay, she can tell you what that means :3

Probably Vic High, she was a military brat and I think that's the closest to where she grew up.

I know all about Oak Bay - I was over there for regattas - I went to Brentwood

A Canadian gothic satanist? How does that work out?

You summon demons to join you for high tea (at the Empress hotel)

Do you even apologize the demons for all their troubles?!

[Baine]

Because the French are a bitter and vindictive people.

I just don't want the federal government to meddle in provincial affairs. It could be done within the current system but it seems English Canadians like too much the federal government.

I'm waiting for the US to secede from Russia but we have to wait for the investigation to conclude. /S

Does anyone else find it really weird that Scotland is being lumped in with the Kurds, Palestine and Tibet?

Isn't eating British food a type of torture?

That Canadian map probably includes like 1/3 of the US population, in other words 3x Canada's population. Also lol@ the southern states having wildly different values. The biggest disconnect I've seen like that here in America is large urban centers vs the rest of the state. I don't think there is that much difference in experience living in Sacramento vs Charlotte etc... but Take either of those and compare them to Truckee or rural and Wyoming and yes.

Non troll talk though, I don't know how I feel about more economically prosperous areas wanting to break off like Catalonia, there should be some sort of super majority vote in these cases so that the status quo isn't thrown out the window willy nilly... I support Taiwan and a potential Kurdistan, and conflicted on Palestine. I used to support Tibet, but apparently it was a pretty harsh feudal theocracy pre-china so not so much anymore.

Edit: But I guess in the case of Catalonia it would be pretty harmless when I think of Czechoslovakia. Slovakia was definitely going to be a drag for a little bit so Czech leadership wanted to cut them lose, and corrupt Slovak politicians wanted more power so they split it up. Today its not a big deal, and the 2 countries are neck and neck economically (again going back to the urban center though a lot of this is propped up by Bratislava which has/is becoming incredibly prosperous.

I thought that Czechoslovakia splitting up was pretty stupid but whatever.

If British food in general is torture then Scottish food in particular is a death sentence.

Also, obligatory reminder that Scotland would be part of Britain (the island) regardless of its relationship with the UK (the nation.)

Yes, I support Scotland, the movements in Ukraine and the Flamish movement.

Not Frisians?

I support the secession of Karelia, Murmansk and Siberia from Russia.

[Techno-Druid]

I support the secession of Karelia, Murmansk and Siberia from Russia.

I think Karelia should succeed from Russia and join Finland as an autonomous region. Karelian and Finnish are already closely related languages.

[Stelio Kontos]

Taiwan
Eastern Ukraine
Kurdistan (stretching across parts of SE Turkey, N Syria, N Iraq, and NW Iran)
Republika Srpska
Tibet
I'd like to see Mongolia and Inner Mongolia reunited, but that will never happen.
Republic of Artsakh
South Ossetia

Why do people think that Canadians would even want the shitty Rust Belt states and New England in the first place? Y'all suck. They're crime ridden, gun infested shitholes with third world infrastructure, and a population that's going to think 'New Canada' should revolve around them.

I personally think Canada should become the 51st state.

[Heladys]

I support all of america that has the strength of will to secede from the trumpian idiocracy.

[Independent voter]

Chechnya. Half of Chechnya is fighting for ISIS.

[oplawlz]

I support the San Andrean movement.

[Techno-Druid]

I personally think North Montana should become the 51st state.

Blue States Form 3 separate unions and Red States do the same and or form with other like states and make a new union.

The (partially tongue-in-cheek) movement to make Galicia independent from Spain and formally apply to being a Portuguese region.

I support the San Andrean movement.

Such a catastrophic movement would leave the US fractured.
