Chelsea Green

The combox is filled with comments by nationalists who have an undying devotion to the unitary nation-state. To be expected at TAC - maybe those who are more sympathetic to the viewpoints presented by TAC don't bother to participate in the combox. Are they doing enough in their own lives, though?
