What my bioregionalism group is about, ultimately
Secession.

I understand how unrealistic that sounds.
I realize that the idea figures to resonate with very few people.
It’s so terribly marginal to broach it.
But, hey, somebody needs to go right to the truth. As unrealistic, marginal, radically alternative as it is.
It’s the truth.
The country won’t change very much.
We’ve been trying and we’ll keep trying . . . working very hard . . . and sometimes accomplishing some (rather meager) reforms. But the insane inequality mostly will continue, the insane militarism (resources devoted to the military) mostly will continue, the racism, the consumerism, the pollution, the depletion. Ways we Greens don’t want to live. Will continue.
So leave it.
That’s kind of: Duh . . . and yet, so off-the-table.
You would think among the millions and millions of Greens and greens and progressives and leftists, some small number would just broach the simple idea: Leave it.
Reforming it is one righteous Thing To Do. Transforming it is another. Leaving it is another! Too few are talking about, working toward the latter.
