Cascadia, the one envisioned as a racist white ethnostate?
What the fuck is wrong with you?
- No, the geographic region you fucking mouth breather.
- I was born and raised in Cascadia and I have never once heard of it being some white racist ethnostate it's more of a bioregion/cool people thing...I googled it and it looks like some folk in the 1840s wanted to do that but comparing us with them is ridiculous on your part to tell ya the truth.

  I was raised all over the country - but got an education in history. I've known the chud's plan for Cascadia since I was a kid. Why don't you read history? Don't you think you should know what you're endorsing before you start suggesting people support a plan for a white racist ethnostate?
  Now that you know it's history are you in any way reconsidering?
  It's not just a historical motivation, the scumfucks are still pushing for it.

  wake up
  
  @Entropywins I feel ya, and I agree with you, but here's a friendly tip: Any argument made in text will be more persuasive if you write it like a thoughtful, educated grown-up instead of like a drunk high school drop-out.
  It's one thing to be 'casual' in discourse. It's another to come across as incompetent, inconsiderate, or lazy.
  Online, all anyone sees are the words you type. That's a huge part of how others will perceive you -- and everything you say -- and you should mindful about that.
