what do you think praxis means here?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Praxis_(process)
Yeah... I'm using the word very intentionally
Praxis is academic. It scares people. We must hide the fact our arguments are driven by ideology and focus on the material conditions and how they can be immediately improved
That's just a specific kind of praxis though. Praxis is about doing things to change the current state of things. It doesn't proscribe only teaching theory. You can be doing praxis without saying anything academic.
It's perception. Like I said, hide the praxis. It must not be perceivable
Hell, discard it even. It's more important to focus on immediate material issues than loudly dream about a better world
Praxis is not useful in this day and age, it's a liability. If it's your driving force, learn to pretend it's not
You are fantastically obtuse in your perception of a word that means doing direct action to create material change.
And you don't understand what being effective means.
You're why we're fucked.
You're both very wrong and very strange
