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.

and can never happen in America as long as the dollar is king.

Thankfully, this is going quickly down the drain. And the worries of the economy will only matter so long as the American economy meaningfully exists... inshallah that said, probably the best-case scenario is a civil war sometime down the road for whatever reason, I wouldn't expect the US to (relatively) peacefully dissolve like the Soviets nor let go of their 250-year reich without some blood shed (and better internal infighting amongst state elements than it trying to take the world or rebelling populations down with it)

Full and infinite support for the balkanization of the devil settler-state IMO.
