When a nation gets too large it tends to implode on itself. Too many competing factions, ideologies, interests. No hegemony. We have huge pockets of this country that are so completely different from each other it is becoming almost impossible to find any sort of compromise.
The south is a solid block with their own traditions and beliefs and priorities. The northeast is entirely different. Also a solid block with their own traditions and beliefs and priorities.
Wouldn’t it be better if they were all allowed to pursue them how they saw fit?
No hegemony? Hegemony is a good thing? You want there to be hegemony?
Are you wanting a leftist hegemony and is it that you want this to promote leftist hegemony in the northeast?
I mean.... I am completely in favor of a conservative hegemony (however, my idea of conservativism is a lot different than the Republican Party.... I'm not for Zionism, for example). So I myself am in favor of conservative hegemony. So you can admit you want leftist hegemony without being much different. I assume you want leftist hegemony just like I want conservative but- you can speak for yourself on the matter, of course. I don't know you better than yourself.
I mean I don't believe in this first sentence of yours.
When a nation gets too large, it tends to implode- I don't believe that.
I don't think you've made a case for that claim. Do you have examples to illustrate that claim?
I think conservatives are perfectly happy to co-exist with liberals but I think it's leftists who don't want to co-exist.
If your nation getting too large leads to implosion theory is correct- why would the US just now implode? And I don't think it's imploding. I think there's been political differences for a long time and I'm perfectly fine with that.
I don't see why you would be bothered by conservatives or them being part of the same country.
The universities, the media and the institutions are all on the side of the left and we conservatives are on the "wrong side of history". I mean you're on the winning team so I don't think it makes sense for you to want the country to be split up.
The left has already won and the conservatives have already lost. I don't think your explanation makes sense and maybe you'll better explain it to me but for the moment, my theory is that you are for dividing the US because leftists want to be in leftist bubbles and are threatened by other views.
The left is really big on censorship and trying to shut down conservative voices. I think this is because the left needs to have hegemony. It needs to have people in leftist bubbles. If control of the media, universities and institutions were split 50-50 between liberals and conservatives, I think conservatives would win. Leftists have almost a complete monopoly over the media, universities and institutions yet they have so much trouble creating a leftist hegemony. The leftist "utopia" needs terrorism, social engineering and censorship in order to be implemented. People naturally are not interested in following whatever some leftist elites came up with last Tuesday.
The real issue is really just belief in God. Progressivism basically flows from atheism and conservativism basically flows from belief in God.
