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.

    Notably Öcalan has become increasingly anti-Marxist and anti-Communist, so he would not represent this synthesis. In fact, he’s the “thought leader” behind this ideology which has been compatible with US Occupation of Kurdish land in Syria.

      I don’t blame the last part on the guy whose spent 25 years in Turkish prison often in solitarity and cut off from lawyers and family. Even if yeah Rojava has been quite the disappointment.
