From the article: “Like South Carolina residents in 1861, Calexit advocates seem to assume that federal law should apply everywhere else except in California.”
There, I’ve correct it: “Calexit advocates seem to assume that California law should apply everywhere else.”
Middle income Californian’s fled in droves back in the early 80’s. Living in Colorado, hoards of moving vans pulled in daily as middle class Californian migrated east and north. Having done so, the arriving “immigrants” brought many of their problems, flaky ideas, drugs and troubled kids with them, only to expect their new adopted home state(s) to accept their ideas. Thus, it was the beginning of what many western states now do not “enjoy”. Although several years ago, I too migrated, BACK to whence I came. So far California has not reached the north woods of Wisconsin.
We need a counterpoint to Calexit, where we passively allow California to take the few marbles they haven’t lost and leave.
Something we could call “Caleject” where we actively throw their sorry butts out.
And slam the door after them!

South Carolina and the rest of the secession states wanted to break away from what was..and still is..a suprasized “California” type government, eg the federal government.
