If you have to justify the separation with a moral cause, then you don’t have a right to self governance. If I have a right to something, then I don’t need to justify exercising the right.

Complete and utter nonsense.

"When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation."

-- Opening lines of The Declaration of Independence

[Boogieman]

Here’s the key:

“a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation”

The only thing that requires a declaration is “the decent respect to the opinions of mankind”. That is not an actual requirement that must be satisfied in order to exercise the right, they are just saying it is polite to make such a declaration.
