No state is a monolith.

That's exactly the point. It makes no sense to say maybe if New York went off and was its own country it'll finally not be so divided.

		I mean it'd be less divided insofar as the minority would be more thoroughly subjugated by the state. No pesky federal government getting in the way. Though that's probably not a good thing.
