@RollingStone This is what systemic accommodation and general inaction on fascism by the DOJ leads to, (with exception to the barbwire suit by the Feds).
@RollingStone I think Texas should be immediately expelled from the Union. Whatever value they bring to the nation is overshadowed by the consequences of their continuing statehood. Let's see how they fare without the benefit of federal dollars, and without the benefit of membership in the United States of America.
@slcw@RollingStone
You're not entirely wrong in principle just in your facts.
TX would really do very well without federal funding, in fact, the question is how would some states do without TX's contribution to the federal gov't.
@MaryAliciaZiff@RollingStone Are you considering the total impact of the complete withdrawal of federal funding and infrastructure, as well as the relocation of all federal employees and facilities?
Texas lawmakers need to go through some things… like having all federal funding paused. Want to act like a secessionist? You should find out what that really means.
@RollingStone Getting harder and harder not to recognize we are already in the middle of a second Civil War.
Well, that's not accurate. The first one never ended the Confederacy merely retrenched and bided its time. Eventually, the #DemocraticParty played into their hands with adoption of #Neoliberalism that is a close cousin of the #NeoConfederate belief system. Now the billionaires created are bankrolling the movement and its huge Ministry of Disinformation.
@GhostOnTheHalfShell@RollingStone Yes, but IMO they were kept somewhat in check until the #DemocraticParty collaborated by full throated adoption of #Neoliberlism (rapacious laissez faire capitalism) that allowed capture of MSM, creation of 24/7 propaganda networks, and increasing shift of wealth to the top.
