I love how conservatives are cheering on the destruction of the federal government while their states rely on it to exist.

Time for California to stop paying federal taxes since we're not being served by the federal government. Let conservatives suffer and die. It's what they're advocating for.

red states are the ultimate welfare queen, and many conservatives/liberterians working in blue states, depend on blue states for thier business while railing on said states for being woke,. red states dont have any economy outside of either farming/manufacturing, if they are lucky like florida tourism.

Ummm... Mississippi. Yeah yeah, it's Mississippi!

Does that mean we can go fascist hunting in the blue states?
