Praxis and direct actions are words anarchists use to make them seel special or like secret agents. So you can kinda just say whatever. This goes for mutual aid too.

Tho theory wise I think praxis is putting theory into practice and direct action is doing an action outside of politicians. I.e. an example if liberal praxis is to donate to Bernie Sanders. I think this is confusing bc anarchist praxis is often direct action. An example of direct action is helping a houseless person squatt a building. Which would also be anarchist praxis. But it would not be Conservative praxis.

Tho some anarchist praxis isnt direct action. For example praxis for Anarcho-debatebrowhitesaviors would be canvassing for white supremacists.
