That’s the idea. A significant percentage of American right wing wants a dysfunctional government that leads to its inevitable collapse and disbandment into absolute local control.

A warlord-style Protestant Christian autocracy is their idea of “freedom.”

When we’re taught about the Pilgrims in school, we’re shown them as victims of the Stuarts making Anglicanism the state church. Although James I and Charles I deserve their criticism, the Pilgrims were religious radicals who weren’t looking for true religious freedom. They wanted a state where they could be the dominant denomination and oppress others.
