I always thought the most realistic portrayal of how a current day american Civil War might start was Euel Arden’s novel, Down Here in the Warmth. Great book. Militia on the streets of NYC. Great New York novel.
Northern Ireland and Colombia during the 1980s is what a second American Civil War would look like. Basically, it would look like the Troubles or the Colombian Conflict cranked up to 11.
I thought that as well at first. But they never said the states teamed up- only that they wanted to separate. California because they're too woke and want their own nation, and Texas because they are far right and don't want the govt. Controlling them. That option makes sense to me.
It's possible. There's lots of progressives and conservatives in both states. And people from different political sides can team up if they are given a common goal to fight for.
I think it was more of a coalition of power against a common enemy since California and Texas would be the largest and strongest of the states that seceded, they know without each other they both probably wouldn’t stand a chance against the rest of the country or maybe even each other
It's not TDS if Trump supporters are literally saying they're going to start a civil war if Trump loses the election. And they literally are saying that.
The reason is understandable. If I'm correct, The Western Forces is made of all the military personnel in those two states, who broke apart from the US military and banded together. It's more about numbers than local politics
That's the point. It's a satirical take on a modern day American civil war. If it was any realistic split then the movie would become polarising because there is an actual real like democrat/republican split. By making one of the most blue and one of the most red states join forces it makes the civil war in the movie not alienate any real life political group and makes a political movie somewhat apolitical.
Some of the graffiti around the city, and the fact that journalists are freely allowed to walk around indicates that the Western Forces are in control of New York. The Bomber has a regular American flag, meaning she’s probably part of some loyalist insurgency or a lone wolf.

Well the that fight scene was poorly filmed unrealistic , and as if the cops was just standing there pushing they would have well opened fire on a crowd no messing
To take out the water the police were "protecting" while it was being rationed. Basically a terrorist that was taking out something of "high value". Because clean water scarcity was one of the "trigger issues" in this movie. It would be one of the (few) reasons Texas and California would ever enter an alliance - both are huge agriculture states with large populations, water access is everything to both states.
