    It’s good! but ‘revolutionary praxis’ is not gonna be compatible. A big change over the last 100 years or so has been a general turning away from the concept of revolution for many anarchists, including communist ones, though that doesn’t mean everyone has excluded the concept fully.

    while large scale movements and collective projects etc are all fine and good, it’s also good to not get caught up in identifying with them. “I’d give it all for The Collective” etc. Things should serve us as far as we can get use from them, and be easily discarded when they no long work for us. This means any collective undertaking should be easily dissolved when it becomes more a burden than a help to those who operate it. We can organize ourselves to fight our bosses, to strike our rent against landlords, to feed and protect ourselves, but those organizations aren’t “Real” things without the people to operate them.
