I was thinking about how the idea of some form of secession of states is always discussed in some really silly right-wing fantasy contexts but has there been any discourse in leftist circles about this? Especially in terms of the completely broken political system.

Otherwise is this a completely stupid idea on its face? Either way I'm just interested to hear about people's thoughts.

    The USSR dissolved under the illusion that they were going to liberalize their highly industrialized economy and open up to the entire Western market.

    Both things happened actually, but both liberalisation and opening market didn't meant investment, it meant looting. What were they even thinking though, west did that every single time they "opened" some place up and even revisionist socialists should have this covered in fucking school.
