@timhollo Thanks for sharing - I wasn't able to make the talk and there's lots in here I'd like to amplify. In particular, the importance of practising our politics in concert with others, and your positioning of a focus on practising direct degrowth actions as one aspect of a much broader shared struggle towards collective liberation.
One question I'm holding is: how do we navigate simultaneously holding our focus on practising those aspects of liberatory prefiguration within our spheres of influence while also acting in solidarity with those focusing their actions on other aspects of this broader shared struggle?

@teq crucial question, isn’t it? I feel like that, too, is a question of practice. We’ve been so inculcated in this approach of competitive campaigning that it’s hard work. I don’t know, but do we have to just try, and try to gently remind each other to make and keep the commitment? Call each other in about it?
