Global warming religion is definitely too kooky... Didn't a group in UK protest half-naked about global warming? That is science? Seems more like religion...
Make your communities stronger. The cities are far too toxic and unequal for them to ever have a firm grasp on power. The liberals keep pricing out the people they need to do all the work in the cities, conservatives aren't supposed to be the bunch that holds prejudices on how other Americans look. That's the American and Christian way of treating your fellow human beings like they're your fellow neighbors, the Liberals abandoned those ideals in favor of controlling the cities.
It will happen eventually anyhow. The younger generation is a lot less religious, and a lot more secular. The older religious crowd will die off and a new secular crowd will take over. Things change.
The problem isn't with religion itself. The problem is that a certain segment has misused religion as a political weapon which, ironically, ends up being doing a disservice to both religion and politics.

It's sad we can't divide so we could each have things our way and not have to fight about it anymore.
So how would this look? People could only live in place based on their political beliefs so that one state would be 100% liberal and one would be 100% conservative? I'm just trying to understand what this proposal would look like.

An even better solution is a voluntaryist society where groups of like-minded people form communities based on shared values.
A white liberal is going to have totally different politics than a minority liberal. Doesn't matter if they both vote for the same politicians. St. Louis is evidence of that fact.

Not making a proposal. I'm saying it's unrealistic and will never happen.
That said, moving based on political beliefs isn't that outlandish. One of the reasons I came back to California was I wanted to live in a blue state.
But not everyone has the ability to up and move like I do.
