Google "Cal-exit"
Proposal may not be specifically advertised as "Apartheid", but when Tucker Carlson repeatedly described it as such with a key (the key??) proponent on his show last week, there was nary a denial uttered that apartheid was in fact the goal/result of the movement.
Hard to describe an essentially "brown" (not my term) and entirely poor Californian majority (middle class (everyone middle class regardless of race, BTW)having been "exported" to the remainder of the US for being 'apparently' racist, and therefore 'welcome' there) and a moneyed elite consisting of Silicon Valley billionaires and movie/TV celebrities ruling over them.
Since they know what's best. (again, not disputed)
Hard to describe as anything but apartheid, however I note, if such a change were proposed for Alabama or Mississippi I imagine we would be seeing public crucifixion/immolations of all proponents, real and merely accused.
As a social experiment (done on a computer) it would be 'interesting', but I imagine in RL it might be rather awful, although if all the poor 'brown' people (not my term) were on board with it and didn't mind, who am I to complain ??

The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
