Conservatives would disagree. They will proudly produce their own doctors who are as skeptical of science and education as they are.
Also, despite being enemies, they will gladly sell their crops and other exports to the normal people. As long as we don’t have to live side by side, we can all get along just fine.
I think the only option that avoids impending long-term bloodshed would be separating into Cascadia (the west coast), New England (NY, NJ, CT, ME, RI, etc), and the U.S. (the rest). Colorado would be stuck in the U.S., and that would be a loss for the normal people, but this separation could result in many years of peace for everyone before the conservatives try to invade a normal nation. By that time, the normal nations will have adequate means to repel and crush the invading roaches.
