Obviously a lot of dumb here, but I'm most curious about the dividing of some of the existing states.

Like, I assume LN is Lincoln? But I thought the Lincoln movement was something on the East Cost, along Tennessee or something?

Texas being divided up with AU (Austin?) Being the biggest chunk is interesting. Not sure what's up with the chopping up on Oklahoma and Sequoia (?) though.

What's with that AB business in Wyoming?

Also interesting that California would encompass all of the Baja Peninsula. I would have figured that would have broken off as its own state (BJ for Baja probably would have been too awkward for the conservative that drafted this, but maybe BC for Baja California?)

I'd love to hear more about these if anyone can point me to references.

They're also breaking up the provinces weirdly too. What the heck is AE or AT? Northern Alberta has like none people, so making the province into two "states" is just dumb as heck.

Glad they didn't divide ontario between the crazy side and southern ontario

That's just so they don't ever have to think about Northern Ontario. As is tradition.

This was a map posted on a map subreddit a while ago, as a kind of alternative history/future. I can't remember the details but I remember seeing it.

Trump's voting base don't have the skill to make work like this, nor apparently the imagination. What this is indicative of is that a portion Trump's voting base is dreaming of war and conquest, and in lieu of recent comments by Trump, Trump too.

Don't question the map, I'm sure someone with some time can find the original poster but it would have been made for some fun.

At least now it'll be funny, since a Colonizer is taking the land of another Colonizer

The thumbnail on the account says "I support the former things"

Surely this is satire, even for them that's too stupid a quote

As a bo us, guess who benefits from normalizing this kind of rethoric...

I wasn't aware American fascists wanted to share a country with Sinaloans. They keep saying the opposite in fact
