Idk, just feels wrong to brag about it or constantly bring it up so this is the first time I’ve ever mentioned it on lemmy

On the other hand, there's nothing wrong with encouraging and normalizing productive behaviors, like actions and reading theory. I've seen some communities normalize the whole "you're just an armchair posting online!" as a counterargument, or take digs at how they think most of the community don't read any theory. And I've seen a touch of the second on Hexbear, esp. when some bears visited Lemmygrad during the domain registration issue.

I don't brag about my antifascism and org work on Lemmy, but I really should start, to be honest. It's the little things behind the scenes that people don't realize gets done. Just make sure you're careful with what information you share, because fash could be looking.
