    @snippet@fe.disroot.org @Talia@mstdn.social Jeez that's extreme. I guess it's not surprising activism is being recuperated by capital, just like sustainability and so many other terms. Curiously, where I'm based in Copenhagen, it's almost the opposite: "activism" is a taboo word in Danish academia. There is also something to be said for a critique of "activism" in the Freirean sense (as in, acting without strategic thinking), which could apply to that museum institution for example, though perhaps the strategy here is just to co-opt the word and void it of all meaning.
