The secession of few blue states would relieve the political pressure everywhere, both blue and red.
The leftists want us to be their tax slaves.
Yup. When you get Utopia up and running and you find work, send us a postcard. LOL!
Uh, no.
Most of the land in the world is spoken for, and the countries owning this or that acreage are not going to let anyone set up a new country on it. Hell, hippies couldn’t even set up a country on the Thames Estuary forts (Sealandia).

It would be NICE if there were some place we could exile violent malcontents and allow them to build in a nation of their own, though.
Like my Grampappy used to say “ if you don’t like it here there’s a boat leaving every day.” I miss him.
He's not using it anymore.
The protest is also fueled by trained and paid agitators who aren't desirous of correcting the country's ills. They want to destroy America. They are paid by hostile foreign governments and hostile domestic fat, diseased, ugly billionaires.
"Change" was never a part of the equation.
I would donate to this. I would love for the socialists to leave! I would wish them all the best, as long as they are now able to stop trying to force everyone else to their long failed failure.
But they would never accept this. At least not those at the top of their pyramid who machinate how to bring marxism to everywhere. The morons at the bottom would probably happily go.
The reason they would never accept just leaving is because their ideas cannot succeed without sucking in the unwilling. Socialism in particular cannot exist next to capitalism and societies with liberty and private property rights. They can’t compete. Their people have no motivation to excel, or even be productive. They know damned well that if their people had some border to cross to get too, they’d have to build a wall to stop the exodus. And the same goes for authoritarian/totalitarian social control (justice?). It sounds good, but once implemented and isolated, it corrodes into full fascism.
I've seen this story before - it doesn't end well.
Yeah, like anyone in one of those other countries wants a bunch of our losers moving in.
