    You seem to have this idea of “what America is” like all 350 million of us are born with the natural free spirit and sense of rebellion to just want to separate for the sake of separation.

    The US was founded because the monarchy oppressed the colonies and taxed us without representation. That’s literally the only time the US ever “left” anything, and that was to get away from a monarchy. The only other time it happened we waged the bloodiest war on our soil in our history to make sure it didn’t.

    There’s no monarchy here, brother. Why do you have this idea that we all just want to get away?

    What the US is actually about is celebrating diversity. We are the melting pot of the world. By definition there’s no unified “what we are about” mindset.
