I also love how anti-authoritarians have renamed 'enforcement' to 'awareness'.

I mean, I don't, and wish people had the boldness to own what is really required to self-organize.

What is this about?

this point is about a trend I've been seeing in Germany and a bit in the UK.

An example I found today: https://tribu-x.org/awareness-concept/

I think awareness is awesome, and personal development is super important. Just arguing for a separation, and ownership, of concerns.

OK. I managed to read that today, and I'll be honest: I've come to see such texts as red lights, as in my experience all these boilerplate pronouncements from liberals (regardless that they conceive of themselves as "radicals") have been more so cover your ass statements no different than the worst legalese coming from an attorney hired by a board of directors in hot water, following their having done something extremely fucked up.

Also, about 'recommended donations'

If it's not OK to give less than the recommendation, it is a *price* - call it that!
