Americans are being massively culled for people who are capable of having grandchildren versus people who are not. The Americans who emerge from the pending age of chaos will have to be like the Amish, with guns.

That wiki definition doesn't even mention genetics which is by far the largest contributor to ethnic identity. The word ethnos traced back to this concept of kinship. Genetic kinship. Not ideology.

That's a common set of ancestry.

Brilliant observation about the Confederates and Orthodox being neighbors. Perhaps they will merge. A great piece and intriguingly hopeful. My one quibble is that I don’t see the polity called the USA remaining for 100 years but that’s wishful thinking maybe. I’d like it to be honest next week.

The split of the USA will not be gradual, because businesses need to know which governments to send their taxes to. (They need to know who will prosecute failure to pay taxes). Americans like order and a lack of crime.

The solution is a federation of red states. Such a loose federation would allow states' rights. Join the Texas Nationalist movement or Free Louisiana to help TX or LA unilaterally lead the red states out of the Union.

The problem of this kind of articles is that they still live in the Aughts: America is no more a Shiny City on a Hill and only a strong government can make it a Moat capable of surviving a roaming enemy. I.e. what if a russian hypersonic boat roams in front of the Free Texas gas terminal or Tren de Augua Autonomous Republic attacks the Mennonites' opium fields in Pennsylavia upon a Chinese bounty? States are borne in necessity and a dangerous world necessitate of States.
