Did you miss the part where I said there would be turmoil and a power vacuum? Of course there will be issues with tribalism but not not all states are socialist dungholes, some of us will be just fine.
I get it. Families used to stick together , but educational institutions have encouraged these families to branch out and be more individualistic.
The topic under discussion could reverse those teachings, causing folks to put more emphasis in getting to know your family members and your neighbors for security, and the common good.
My home state of Texas is being bombarded by liberals who want to divide us through our vote leanings, and even our culture.
Luckily, Greg Abbott is fighting back with lots of support.
The cultural shift over the last 30 years has definitely changed the way families and neighbors viewed each other. There were a lot of houses on my street growing up and I pretty much knew everyone in my neighborhood, their names, kid's names, pet's names, etc. It's not like that anymore in most areas so I hear you, we would have to band together by neighborhood in order to survive a failure of the US.
Unfortunately Texas is going through what all good conservative states are dealing with, liberals fleeing the states they ruined. Liberalism is a mental disorder so these people can't use basic logic and figure out that voting for Democrats caused the situation they're in in the first place. New Hampshire has been fighting that fight for years now as well. We were once a solid red state in a sea of mostly blue New England states, now we're a purple state thanks to liberals moving in from the turd states they created nearby. The only thing that has saved us to this point is we have the largest legislature in the US even though we're a tiny state. Because of that all the rural areas are well represented.
Hopefully your governor can make a lot of positive changes while in office, the key is to make laws aimed at protecting everyone from these liberals while he's there. One thing New Hampshire is doing right now while we have a Republican governor, house and senate is there's a house bill that if it becomes law will actually punish cities and towns if they violate preemption laws and create their own gun control ordinances. For example, college towns like Durham where UNH is is run by liberals so they passed their own gun control at the town level which is against the law because of state preemption laws but they do it anyway because there are no consequences. This bill will financially penalize cities or towns or towns and also any law enforcement who try to enforce these unconstitutional laws.
