It only happens when states start refusing orders from Washington.

Yes. But then the easier route is to elect different politicians and work within the system. While secessionist ideas might not be alien for a libertarian, to any other American they sound quite removed from reality.

I’m not a secessionist. In my view, there is room to move back to a “10th Amendment” country, where the states assert their constitutional prerogatives.

In line with that I noted in post #51 what is happening in Montana and possibly to be followed by other states:

This is not secession. This is merely the states beginning to assume their normal constitutional role which has been allowed to atrophy a bit over the years.
