Do you have concrete suggestions for what I personally could do? I often read these things online, but it feels like buzzwords and technical terms thrown around in the expectation that they should mean something to the audience, but I’m not sure they do.

I’ve had the anarchist FAQ tab open in my browser since forever, but I find it hard to read and work (by design) often leaves me too tired to meaningfully engage with it.
This circles back into the issue of not knowing what to do: dedicated articles tend to be heavy on quotes, arguments why it’s important and general principles. I don’t need convincing, I need direction.

Hopefully where you live there is already a group of people doing these things and they can help you get more into it.
