Avoiding doing homework (yeah, I know...) and thought I'd pose this:

Groups tend to morph over time, depending on who's in them and who's running them and the surrounding circumstances. And this being the case, there will always be some faction within just about every group that disagrees with the group's leadership and/or with the stated purposes of the group at the time. Sometimes these dissenters work toward regime/policy change, sometimes they simply cut and run and go form their own group.

Efforts to change the regime are laudable in most cases, but what if the intended changes involve a significant re-imagining of the group's purposes, and those purposes have been set in stone for a long time? Wouldn't it be better, in that case, to simply go off and join another group that's more to one's purposes, or start a new one?
