Between the opening line about divorce being preferable to cutting the brake lines on a spouse’s car and your comment on “raging trolls”, I’m inspired to click thru and read this one.
I have been saying exactly this for years now. We have two tribes in this country and we are simply incompatible. It is much better that we just go our separate ways peacefully.
The Northeast, Left Coast, Miami, Chicago, Occupied Northern Virginia and other parts of the upper Midwest to one side - the non Left Coast West, most of the Midwest, Alaska and Dixie to the other side. Everybody will be much happier. Some states like New York, California, Oregon, Washington, Illinois and Pennsylvania will need to be divided in addition to giving off those two parts from Florida and Virginia.
Divorce is regrettable but it’s better than a bad marriage that makes everybody miserable.
Cogent & well written.
“preferable to cutting the brake lines on a spouse’s car”
No he said it was ‘easier’ which is totally false.
Cutting the brake lines. Hmmm... is that recommended BEFORE or AFTER the divorce?
