For the Americans: is it really being considered in mainstream discussions or just another fringe idea? Personally I think a pacific separation of people with different ideals would be the perfect scenario for America, although quite unrealistic.
I think it's mostly "vent".

I don't see the American States as so different to separate. Contrariwise, it is a more national population than many others. The countries from Western Europe tend to get free and different, so the national term is in decline for them. The US will remain the same, and some pandemic situations like the actual one change daily activity significantly. I know all these details due to https://studyhippo.com/essay-examples/immigration/ since it is a source with reliable data and essay examples about Obama's presidency, ethnic groups' discrimination, or simple immigration. Therefore, I have followed the graphic of the US population and the statistical data so well that I could predict the possible repetition of the immigration process from 1870 to 1910.
