It's really worth looking at Rojava here. Democratic Confederalism can exist within borders. So norther Syria has it's own military and acts independently, but is still technically part of Syria. That model could be a way to maintain autonomy and build a better future even within a collapsing US.
And cascadia as an idea is really not intended to be another colonizer project anyway. Official secession would just be further occupying indigenous lands. Democratic Confederalism could offer an alternative while also embracing Land Back. That's just my €0.02 anyway.
