@Azure @Elizafox @green I'm saying that the argument "if you leave, things will go so much worse for the people who don't" is a really dangerous line of thinking. Under that train of thought, anyone choosing to emigrate to get away from Trump is culpable for the harm perpetrated on those who don't, secession or not. It's shifting the blame from the bad actors to the people trying to get away from the bad actors.
