Lazy ass movie with a lazy ass title. Americans are horny for civil war but there’s not any real tension. The politicians who are nominally for secession are unserious because they benefit greatly as of now, and most don’t give a shit about Trump but need to pretend they do because their party is full of insane people. But both sides ultimately think voting for the right politicians will defeat the other side. No one even cares when governors pull some bullshit against federal laws and mandates

The most tense issue politically right now is either Palestine or abortion, neither of which I could see instigating secession or war. There's longstanding complaints about healthcare, poverty, and debt but none of that is politically mobilized enough to do anything.

Further totalitarian crackdowns on protesters rubber stamped by both libs and conservatives get passed due to Palestinian support. Proceed to use said crackdowns and privacy violation laws to charge women and men assisting with abortions, either through shipping over the counter drugs, driving or donating for trips out of state, and worse.

This is a slow process, but it’s only a matter of time until they have an abortion police division. Texas has already passed a snitching law.
