Here is the latest map addendum for 5 more representative, decentralized regions of the US, with 2 greenish ones: more socialist, 2 purplish ones: more centrist/independent, and 1 yellow one: more corporatist. This is the first map to incorporate native micro-regions in silver!

@ET_Californian Thank you!

[Decent Federalism Project @decentgovproj]

@ET_Californian Would you mind doing a zoom-in of SoCal, Houston, and Southern NY/Northern NJ? I’m a novice at drawing districts myself, so I’d love to see more detail if you don’t mind.

At long last, I've attempted to apply the Decent Federalism model to democratizing borders of the 50 states. Like the 5 regions, this is a framework which will ultimately be shaped by the people, a groundwork for democracy to work through. Below is the methodology I applied. 1/x

New episode up! Terence shares some tidbits he's learned on the state of gun laws, how they applied in the #KyleRittenhouse case, and how it all relates to protests and police brutality. Video: https://t.co/KxFe25EYsp & Audio-only: https://t.co/7nmjV1jKOJ

Shout-out to @joefirestonephd & @50linesonly in our latest podcast episode where we talk about economic & workplace democracy & how that applies to government decentralization. They challenged me in good faith on this subject, so this was me following up! https://t.co/zduDE2dGLG

In Episode 18 of the Decent Ideas Podcast, Terence dives deep into 1 of his favorite policy avenues, economic democracy, and attempts to unravel it from other narratives about what's possible for the US economy. Video: https://t.co/zduDE2dGLG & Audio-only: https://t.co/zKNmTcxU0D

Shout-out to @ryangrim, @kimiversenshow, @dakekang, and @vanguard_pod on our latest podcast episode discussing what has transpired in Xinjiang. We tried to unpack a lot of the ongoing discussion within the US left on the issue. https://t.co/wuVHcAv9QM

[Decent Federalism Project @decentgovproj]

New episode! Terence reviews the Western stance towards China on Xinjiang, and whether we might be bumbling into a world war due to unwieldy terminology. Maybe we can call out abuses without beating war drums? Video: https://t.co/wuVHcAv9QM & Audio-only: https://t.co/sE6ThGGmpx

@AlexaMystic56 Haha, true. Also, “people would join our ideology if we changed our ideology to more closely reflect theirs” is a *real* hot take. 🙄

[Decent Federalism Project @decentgovproj]

@AlexaMystic56 Yeah, it’s really interesting going through the replies!

[Decent Federalism Project @decentgovproj]

This is becoming *the* question. I would probably suggest a 4th option: the region of your part of the country (that might be bigger than or not conform to the boundaries of your state).

[Alexandra Bordeaux @AlexaMystic56]

Question for everybody. Do you feel more attached to your state or the country as a whole or the region of the state you live in?

[Decent Federalism Project @decentgovproj]

@_fat_ugly_rat_ Thank ye kindly!

[Decent Federalism Project @decentgovproj]

@AveryTheComrade Better to set some reasonable parameters, and let US citizens choose the boundaries of their states. #DemocratizeStateBorders

1. In 2020, Trump TRIED to steal the election but his only help came from Rudy Giuliani, a minority in Congress, and a rag tag group of conspiracy theorists.

Appearing in Iowa over the weekend, Trump made clear that his 2024 strategy would be different

@notkavi What about splitting between liberal-progressives (greenish), moderates (purplish), and conservatives (golden-yellow)?

@EclecticRadical Or I suppose ethnoreligious group, to be more precise.

[Decent Federalism Project @decentgovproj]

@EclecticRadical We should be careful about drawing an equivalence between an Islamist extremist group (TIM, formerly ETIM) and an entire ethnic group though.
