Read this f**king carefully..
Imagine Texas secedes from the United states, but the Northeastern portion of Texas wishes greatly to remain with the United States, and never fully commits to the transition. Texas, a democracy, then democratically elects a government that is pro United States, and anti-Russia. Well the pro Russian Texans (mostly youth who want something 'different') are so mad, that they over-throw the pro-United States government.
The pro United States government fights back a little, and shoots some of the rebels that are attempting to overthrow the elected President, but then backs off, not wanting to kill too many citizens. Then Russia sends a gumpy, dopey Secretary of State to come lay a wreath in honor of the insurgence who died overthrowing the democratically elected President, because Russia wants to have more influence in Texas. (How far would Americans eyes roll in their head)
The Northwestern Texans are looking at all this and thinking, we have wanted to get back with the United States from the beginning, we don't like this, and never did, and now you aren't even allowed to be pro-United States in this country? They are thinking now is a good time to rejoin America like they always wanted.
So Texas is thrown into turmoil. The United States trades heavily with Texas, but Texas now wants to trade more with Russia half a world away, because the kids think it's cooler. About half of Texans still consider themselves American, and are completely loyal to the USA and disagree with ruining relations with the people you share a border, history, and common culture with.
If the Northeastern Texas province, Texea, after all this turmoil, were to DEMOCRATICALLY vote to succeed from Texas, and rejoin the United States like it always wanted to, WTF would Russia really have to say about that? Because that's the United States in the REAL WORLD. We are telling Crimea it can't do what they want because of our interests in trade half a world away. Americans, in the reverse scenario I laid out, would be like "What the hell does Russia have to do with that vote for Northwestern Texas rejoining America like it always wanted?"
Also, if The United States were to get involved on behalf of the half of Texans that still consider themselves American, who just had their President illegally kicked out, what would Russia really have to do with THAT? Well that's us. Half a world away pretending we have some f*cking business over there.
Do you see how stupid and weak our freakin position is over there? To hate Russia for this situation is the ultimate in not taking an objective look at a situation.
