"Portlandia" episode showing stupidity of West Coast secessionists.

The link has some clips of the show "Portlandia" where the mayor proposes secession because of outsiders taking up tables at the restaurants the mayor frequents.

Though the article implies that the episode is a satire of anti-immigration politics and Trump, I also think it ridicules secessionists and by implication California secessionists.

It also shows that secession is essentially reactionary xenophobia.


UPDATE:

Another article about the episode on secession.
