    If they were Leftists, they'd be trying to redistribute their wealth. The 1% is made up of Conservatives who support Republicans, and Centrists who support Democrats. Maybe some of them are true Leftists, but there clearly isn't enough of them to change the system.

    Your moronic post makes ZERO sense and doesn't address my comments. Run along. It's obvious you are uneducated and lack the historic knowledge to do anything but cry an flail.

    Are you an anti-vaxxer? The first thing they listed mentions toxins in "vaccines." This site has some strong woo vibes.

    In answer to your question...no. Which has zero to do with my agreeing on the issue I brought forth from the link.

    A Modest Proposal For Separating Blue States From Red

    Dear Red-State Trump Voter,
    Let’s face it, guys: We’re done.


    It is a tragedy that so much of the work that so many men and women toiled at for so long to make this a better country, and a better world, has been thrown away, leaving us all in such needless peril.

    This is why our separation in all but name is necessary.

    you should be. they want to kill us all. direct pathogen injection is a great "hidden in plain sight" type tactic.

    It also wiped out several diseases. The only reason a few others haven't been wiped out is because of people choosing not to vaccinate in certain areas.

    It may not have to do with your stance on things, but it does put the site's credibility in question.

    I'll say this much. Vaccination should be a voluntary thing, but it also should be a prerequisite for a student to use a public school as well, at least at the elementary level. Preschools should also make sure that vaccinations are up to date among their children.

    Herd immunity is a pretty important thing.

    Required for use of certain resources. Not vaccinating endangers the children who are unable to get vaccines themselves, since they have weakened immune systems. The same goes for adults.

    Anyone who believes that article is a great example of the dumbing-down.
