A text based forum is a bad fit for some. Whether through stupidity or carelessness, the result is the same. BTW, a typo is when you know the right word, but it comes out sideways through a mechanical error. That’s not what you did. Try to pay attention.

What’s the alternative, a pictograph-based forum?

No way to do it as long as the voting process is still corrupt.

Admin. Please remove this post. The important message is not making it through the typo for many.

Sorry for the confusion.

Thank you.

Are they more or less useless than the idiots that can't properly spell or punctuate in the first place? What's the use of someone who can't communicate well, or even worse, miscommunicates because he constantly uses the wrong words?

At this point it seems to me that secession has already happened.
It is a lot like the married couple that is no longer living together, but they haven’t gotten divorced yet… Even after many years of living apart.

Never concede an inch of soil.

With a secession you end up with two independent countries. It's a creative process, like cell division.

By declaring sanctuary and abrogating federal laws, California has already seceded and is in fact, not America any more

“It’s a creative process, like cell division.”

Agree in general, but seems that the genes left behind are undesirable (e.g., apolitical, amoral, un-Constitutional, anti-religious, etc.). Let’s just say the bad genes are not what our Founding Fathers wanted to continue on.

“At this point it seems to me that secession has already happened.”

Excellent point! Notice the speaker talks about other examples of secession without a blood cost. Think Brexit and Czechoslovakia. Immediately after that discussion, he addresses our civil war in 1861. He has some interesting and probably correct thoughts about that war. You can jump to about the 8 mn mark on the timeline for that discussion.

“And what does the title of this thread mean, anyway?”

If you don’t get it, then move on to the next thread. You wouldn’t understand if you have to ask that question!

Wrong.

I choose not to answer it. I get to make that choice.
