    There was an interesting write up about this subject on Patriot Post, I believe.

    The big problem with this initiative, according to the author, is that it will likely add more liberal Democrat senators and representatives to Congress, due to the way the state would be split up.

    I don't follow politics all that closely, but it sounds like a very bad idea to me...

    Considering that runners/bikers use an app to track where people are pooping on the sidewalks to beware... And the near destroyed state of the economy there (all liberal ideals), and finally, the fact that the roosters are coming home to roost... NOW is NOT the time to split them up. I would literally HIDE the Dystopian Liberal Destruction... While I would love a split for various reasons...

    I think letting them fester a bit longer, is working. Notice how expensive it is getting to Move AWAY from SF??? Versus renting a U-Haul into SF... It's because people are leaving in droves. And these are the middle class that pay the taxes without consuming all of the resources...

    My friends who live there, and are clearly more liberal, are even starting to shake their heads. They are liberal, but not communists... Watching the communism take root is starting to be concerning for them... they have actually started at least looking at real-estate elsewhere...

      Don't your friends know that communism is the goal of liberalism (in the USA)? I've known that since McGovern in 1972.

        Well, the Leftists have been EXCELLENT with their marketing. I have older liberal friends who NEVER KNEW that people are being asked to use Preferred Pronouns... That Michigan State RAs introduce themselves on video, indicating their preferred pronouns.

        They were shocked. These are liberal democrats. The gift of "Yes we can" is that it means different thing to different people.
        Now, these liberals are looters, and believe in taking from others to redistribute to the needed. Don't get me wrong.

        But they are NOT TARGETED nor are they receiving the TRANSGENDER advertising message. The left has ALL the marketing geniuses working for them. these people have heard of the "Bathroom" issue. But not the deeper stuff...

        The ENTIRE thing on Code Words and Dog Whistles is BECAUSE the LEFT wraps things like this, so that ONCE an older LIberal hears the coded wording... They stop listening to the details, and just agree with the position. It would imposition someone who had a sex change to use the wrong bathroom. EVEN WHEN THAT is not the story.

        They play to the LIE that they CARE THE MOST for others.
        ==

        For me, now I realize the difference, and what causes Dave Rubin and others to wake up. When they start seeing ALL of the messages, and digging into the details, they realize it is a mosaic of lies/deceit... Same people believe the 97% of women make less money for the exact same work... (that message fits their beliefs)...

        I now reduce my attempts to convert them to just equalizing the message. Like:
        - Would it be fair to ask a Muslim Bakery to write Mohammed was Pedophile on a cake?
        - Or to ask them to put a picture of Mohammed on the cake?
        - AND SUE THEM for saying no?
        - How is that more caring to demand, not service, but a CUSTOM CAKE.

        See, many of these people believe that the Baker refused to sell them a CAKE off the shelf.
        They did NOT read the details that this was about creating an artistic expression.

        And the LEFT goes a long way to make sure they never hear those words.

        Let that sink in... And pay attention to it. It will amaze you how the programming works.

        Also, Watch someone like Obama, Bill Clinton, or Trump when they speak... But turn off the volume.
        No Subtitles. Watch them as people. You will instantly notice who is PRACTICED and ACTING vs who is REAL.

      I wish there could be a "conservatism" test people would have to pass before they were allowed to move out of CA. And for gawd's sake: BUILD A DAMN WALL for the rest of them.

      I'm only half-kidding.

    Thomas Jefferson wanted even neighborhoods to experiment with different rules. I wish the fed and state gov'ts would leave people alone so they could form enclaves with their own rules. They can't interfere with commerce or ingress/egress, but they could totally have weird rules. I feel like that in some places, esp Kentucky. Last year I filled up in Eastern KY at a gas station with the old mechanical qty and price display-- the moving slot-machine-like wheels. It surprised me. I said, "I guess you have to pay inside," and a local thought I meant pre-pay. "Yeah, unfortunately that's what the world's coming to these days."

    The road to Kingdom Come State Park was closed according to a sign, and I got the idea they meant business -- you might drive off the mountain if you ignored the sign.

    I like leaving people alone to run things their own weird ways. If you don't bother people passing through, it doesn't hurt anyone.

    Do these people sit around and dream up this foolishness? Why do they want to split the state into three states? I have to admit something here. I was born in Los Angeles, but mother and dad got me back to Texas asap. nb

      There's a three-word addition I unfailingly place on the end of the word "Texas" when I use it in a sentence. It goes...."where I belong." "Texas-where-I-belong" is simply one word, to me.

      We are looking with anticipation at heading back there, too...as soon as we can manage it. In the meantime, we cross the border as often as possible, so we can breathe again...until the next time.

    Never happen. If passed by the voters this will go the way of famous Prop 187 of 20+ years ago. Courts will shut it down within 10 seconds.

      What would the court have to do with it.
      The state is unmanagable...

      The Big Plus would be California (west coast line...LA etc) would have most of the illegals and homeless...North and South has a potential to harbor more Value creators and producers. It also would ease up on the liberal progressive marxism infecting our national elections.

      This interesting split leaves LA and surrounding areas, to fall 10 leagues under the sea when the big one hits...hopefully SF will go with it.

        The progressive, leftist establishment relies heavily on there being one big California. Therefore, it won't be allowed to be split up. And, in California the courts run the show. In many, many cases they are teamed with special interests (never conservative) and propositions get shut down right after they get passed. This is one of the main reasons I don't vote. It's a fraud.

    My proposal is to split California into 50 different states and have them all start electioneering on the first day after election. That way you'll have the spectacle of watching politicians fight with each other in a vast variety of ways. There could be a California channel broadcasting the most interesting, most vituperative, bloody fights that devolve into actual physical fights. Only firearms would be banned. Other weapons allowed, knives, bats, spikes, whips, bludgeons, and poison if you can get it down their throats. Fun? Yes!!!

    I can see the need to put SF in Northern as it is a big Republican area. About the only places that were liberal progressive were the coastal cities from SF down to LA. I'm not a religious man, but I pray it passes!

    Is this vote regionally split up into the wannabe states? Don't think so.
    Me dino does think that the daft lib majority who elected Moonbeam will oppressively delight in denying any uppity minority the self-rule of a split state.

    First step would be to leave the US, then do what ever they want to do. Also hope the proposal that Crook County and ChiRaq to leave Ill-noise. Another Wall would be be great for both California and Illinois

    SF and north has is arguably the best wine country in California. The product of Napa and Sonoma should give more than enough income for the liberal loons to steal and survive.

    Wait. What. there's a Dem opposing the split? That means it might actually be a good plan. But I'd need to do more research. It might be a false-flag heckling type of opposition.

    Interesting! If it happens, it reminds me of an episode of Star Trek The Next Generation, where they come across a derelict spaceship from Earth with an American flag on the side, and Data notes that there are 52 stars, "positively identifying it as coming from the old United States of America, circa 2033-2079 " (or words to that effect). Prophetic? I don't think the script writers had in mind that one of the 50 states would split into 3, but probably that Puerto Rico and one other might be added by then, but I guess we'll see...
