Forget higher prices after Brexit, the Texans asking if they'd still get their social security checks after seceding has the same energy as the old British people who voted for Brexit while living in Spain (and calling themselves expats, because migrants is the brown people word) and were surprise Pikachu facing all over the news when the Spanish government told them they weren't allowed to live there anymore because of Brexit. Not very relevant to the video, but as a Spaniard it's a moment I want to relive as often as possible.

To be honest, we don't really want them back here either as we have enough crazies here as it is!
A little reminder to the secessionists of Texas, and I speak of this as someone who was born in, raised in, educated in, had worked in, and had lived for the first 30 years of my life: Texas is a giant plot of land where the most prolific growing biome is desert, and according to all of the footage you put out, it is full of brown-skinned people who do not speak English, and these people just so happen to sit on a sh^t-ton of oil. If you secede, not only will that mean that you have to give up all of the subsidies you get from the US, with the biggest pertaining to the military bases, oil wells and refineries, and cattle, but the entire US military, under the orders of ExxonMobil, BP, Haliburton, and all of the others, will invade, occupy, and extract all of the oil from you, and this will all happen before you can hit refresh in order to see the offical tweet of secession - and this is all under the assumption that your independent energy grid does not collapse for good (it will still collapse multiple times each year, just like it does now, but it could always be for good at any moment now) before that tweet is finished being typed.

Quebec can legally separate from Canada. It requires “a clear majority” of the population of the province to vote on leaving. Almost happened in the 90s. It would not trigger a war. If Quebec left Canada, we would likely remain incredibly economically and politically close
3:34 Haven't checked in a while, iirc that's why people aren't deported to Mexico anymore. Also why we had a similar controversy during the Trump admin I think around 2019. Once Republicans insisted that they were going to deport a bunch of the Invaders or whatever. The Republican base were convinced the Republicans made it a big success. When in reality all their legislation did would convince other countries such as Mexico to hold people waiting to be let in for asylum instead of waiting in Texas. --The people were deported to countries even further south. (Like Venezuela) That's also how occasionally you see someone that was a US citizen or from like Jamaica get deported down there and die. Such as several years ago.
Something extra funny about all this that I learned about dual citizenship: even if somehow Texas actually seceded peacefully without any fighting (cause if there was fighting they would lose), everyone living in Texas would still be considered a citizen of the United states. And therefore, they would still have to pay US taxes even though the newly formed Texas government is now financially independent of the US, because all US citizens have to do this even if they live on the other side of the world, get no benefits and are not represented in congress. I'm pretty sure this was like the one thing people wanted from brexit and it's not even on the table for Texas lmao
Vaush Please I am from Texas 😭 I live in Houston, one of the 5 blue bubbles. Please, 😭 Despite the media a lot of people on these places are not happy and want abbot gone. That’s not of the state population wise!
As someone who was born and raised in TX for 33 years, and who's about move to CO for a better life, I'm sorry for all the red shit our boomer parents barfed on us, and what the younger generation will have to deal with. I do trust that the youth have a voice, and will use it against the increasingly aging racist and -phobes, for good.
Don't punish all of us for our state govt being fucked and making it so only 40% of the state can vote, making it impossible to vote in anyone that isn't a Republican... Texas may as well be a one-party state now.
Ha, Texas is the 8th largest economy in the world and produces the most renewable energy of ANY state, 45% of the United States crude oil, and 25% of the United States natural gas. Plus it's home to the most fortune 500 companies in the US as well as the second largest video game development HUB, next to Seattle. I'm SURE you'll all be fine if we seceded tomorrow.
I find it unlikely that all those fortune 500 companies would stay in Texas after being cut off from the infrastructure, subsidies, and cheap trade afforded by the United States.
@@wrv341 A lot more well off than a state now not receiving any subsidies or protections from a much larger country and surrounded on all sides by countries it now has to negotiate with in order to do trade. Do you honestly think Texas comes out ahead in that scenario? Nevermind the federal government will not just *give up* federal land to a seceding power. Do you think Texas would just get to keep all the US military installations and supplies? Those places headquartered in your state would suddenly be headquartered in a foreign country which has legal implications and tax implications for them back in the country where all the labor is being done and the largest and richest consumer market resides. Like most Texans, have you not actually thought this little charade through? It's not a positive in either direction.
I don't get the comparisons with Brexit. The E.U isn't a State whereas the USA is a State. The comparison would be with Scotland, Quebec, the Basque Country, Catalonia etc
IT is an urban legend that Texas has the right to succeed. They do not have any right to do so. Texas does have the right to subdivide itself into smaller states, but no right to leave the Republic.
It’s very funny when Vaush assumes the Canadian government operates the exact same as the American one. Any province has the legal right to leave if certain conditions are made. Quebec leaving would not trigger a war
I don't want government just the benefits of government. Taxes are evil. I just want everything taxes pay for. Rights are a good thing for me but why does anyone else deserve them?
This might be horrible to say, but i do honestly believe within our lifetimes we will see a fracturing of the united states. You guys are just too big, and the rules and compromises that the good states have to contend with from the bad states. And the checks and balances against abuse that the bad states constantly chafe against and try to work around.... really wouldnt yous all be happier if yous just kinda dissolved. Like most of your states have the economic power and size of countries anyway. I know theres massive issues with this, but i do kinda see it as inevitable.
I forget who said it in an academic capacity, some years ago, but not always stuck with me... American Balkanization. Once that fan gets spinning and once the shit hits it, it is going to get everywhere. Then I remember live interviews in Damascus during the Syrain civil war where most people were trying to go about their daily lives, but in the distance... gun fire and explosions... That could be everyday American life very easily. I say bring it on, which is interesting, the conservatives always see themselves as against the state, unless it's their guy in office. Where as if a Trump or similar dirt flavor dictatorship tried something, it wouldn't so easily be characterized as a war.
I don't. The US isn't as divided into conservatives and liberals as much as American and foreign media likes to imply. There are enough people of all political ideologies in every state to prevent the crazies from abandoning being part of the US. Most Americans save for the fringe weirdos, like the life they have now, and that being a part of the US provides. Most of this kind of stuff goes nowhere and is rightly ignored and/or mocked when people hear about it. Views of secession are not mainstream in the US, and it would take a lot to make them so.
Texas should secede so that we can then bring democracy to another oil rich nation.

As someone who was born and raised in TX for 33 years, and who's about move to CO for a better life, I'm sorry for all the red shit our boomer parents barfed on us, and what the younger generation will have to deal with. I do trust that the youth have a voice, and will use it against the increasingly aging racist and -phobes, for good.
my sister came with an excellent retort to Texans wanting to secede: "what will you do for legal tender?"
Texass fr
this would make the Us smaller than Brazil. DO IT
Hey, youtube has stopped notifying me of when you upload videos, even though I have notifications on. This sucks, and I watch everything you put out
Can we say that plants from Texas are dumb? Can we say that shoes from Texas are dumb?
My question isn't can Texas secede, it's can the other 49 states MAKE Texas secede?
Texit now
Don't punish all of us for our state govt being fucked and making it so only 40% of the state can vote, making it impossible to vote in anyone that isn't a Republican... Texas may as well be a one-party state now.
Ha, Texas is the 8th largest economy in the world and produces the most renewable energy of ANY state, 45% of the United States crude oil, and 25% of the United States natural gas. Plus it's home to the most fortune 500 companies in the US as well as the second largest video game development HUB, next to Seattle. I'm SURE you'll all be fine if we seceded tomorrow.
I find it unlikely that all those fortune 500 companies would stay in Texas after being cut off from the infrastructure, subsidies, and cheap trade afforded by the United States.
@@wrv341 A lot more well off than a state now not receiving any subsidies or protections from a much larger country and surrounded on all sides by countries it now has to negotiate with in order to do trade. Do you honestly think Texas comes out ahead in that scenario? Nevermind the federal government will not just *give up* federal land to a seceding power. Do you think Texas would just get to keep all the US military installations and supplies? Those places headquartered in your state would suddenly be headquartered in a foreign country which has legal implications and tax implications for them back in the country where all the labor is being done and the largest and richest consumer market resides. Like most Texans, have you not actually thought this little charade through? It's not a positive in either direction.
the people’s republic of texas
I agree with vaush that nobody wants Quebec not even us Canadians want it lol
wanna make it REALLY fun? Uphold / allow SB4 and extend the powers to ordinary Texans (citizens’ arrest). sit back and enjoy the show.
Texass is just North Mexico.
I promise we aren't all idiots.
home-bray
Texas stop and frisk😂😂😂
I don't get the comparisons with Brexit. The E.U isn't a State whereas the USA is a State. The comparison would be with Scotland, Quebec, the Basque Country, Catalonia etc
1:32 That's a chain for shackles I think
IT is an urban legend that Texas has the right to succeed. They do not have any right to do so. Texas does have the right to subdivide itself into smaller states, but no right to leave the Republic.
2:27 NGL That's kind of how they treat it. LMFAO!
Not historically been federal power. It’s explicitly the law of the land.
So is this supreme court ruling basically give Texas a blank check in how they handle deportation? If yes, then i find that scary
Let texas succeed. Pull all federal resources and let them try to make it on their own.
Texas vs Alabama
We’re aware. 😐
Vaush is entirely wrong on Quebec
It’s very funny when Vaush assumes the Canadian government operates the exact same as the American one. Any province has the legal right to leave if certain conditions are made. Quebec leaving would not trigger a war
I don't want government just the benefits of government. Taxes are evil. I just want everything taxes pay for. Rights are a good thing for me but why does anyone else deserve them?
Vaush always starting a pit.
lets get the lawsuits from legal mexicans being arrested
I wish they would…. Tired of being associated with Texas
Time to nationalize the states.
If they didn't the first time; they'll definitely remember the Alamo the next time around.
And it comes down to mexico to save America from its stupid "Supreme" court rulings LOL.
Pull all federal support from Texas and border. Then buy endless ads blaming the republicans
Sorry, but the US government does pay Social Security to ex-Americans living in other countries.
U.S. citizens live in other countries. Moving to another country doesn’t eliminate their citizenship. Not the same as secession
No views in 1 minute? Vaush has fallen off...
Also got a Texas ad at the beginning of this video lol
Hope you not a mexican. Or you will be arrested regardless . Lol
Texit
Texas immigrant secede blah blah blah.
Texas should be forced out of the union.
I feel we should separate the state and let the Democrat states fend for the selves
The economic powerhouse blue states will do just fine
This might be horrible to say, but i do honestly believe within our lifetimes we will see a fracturing of the united states.
You guys are just too big, and the rules and compromises that the good states have to contend with from the bad states. And the checks and balances against abuse that the bad states constantly chafe against and try to work around.... really wouldnt yous all be happier if yous just kinda dissolved. Like most of your states have the economic power and size of countries anyway.
I know theres massive issues with this, but i do kinda see it as inevitable.
I forget who said it in an academic capacity, some years ago, but not always stuck with me... American Balkanization. Once that fan gets spinning and once the shit hits it, it is going to get everywhere.
Then I remember live interviews in Damascus during the Syrain civil war where most people were trying to go about their daily lives, but in the distance... gun fire and explosions... That could be everyday American life very easily. I say bring it on, which is interesting, the conservatives always see themselves as against the state, unless it's their guy in office. Where as if a Trump or similar dirt flavor dictatorship tried something, it wouldn't so easily be characterized as a war.
I don't. The US isn't as divided into conservatives and liberals as much as American and foreign media likes to imply. There are enough people of all political ideologies in every state to prevent the crazies from abandoning being part of the US.
Most Americans save for the fringe weirdos, like the life they have now, and that being a part of the US provides. Most of this kind of stuff goes nowhere and is rightly ignored and/or mocked when people hear about it. Views of secession are not mainstream in the US, and it would take a lot to make them so.
