Report: Progressives advocate for southern secession

A bunch of progressive elites would reportedly love to dump the southern states.

According to the Washington Free Beacon:

In an email thread on Gamechanger Salon—a closed Google group of progressive organizers, reporters, and campaign apparatchiks—Guy Saperstein, a major Democratic donor and part owner of the Oakland Athletics baseball team, said he would support the South seceding. 

“For more than 100 years, the South has been dumbing down national politics, tilting the country in a conservative direction, supporting militarism, all while demanding huge financial subsidies from blue states,” Guy Saperstein wrote in the emails. “It would be 100% fine with me if the South was a separate nation, pursuing its own priorities and destiny.” 

As progressive agendas and policies continue to fail, progressives will grasp deeper and wider for their scapegoats.
