Care to elaborate?

'Diet limitations' is quite broad and can have a myriad of reasons.

For example, after injuries, people sometimes need very high-protein diets - this is not impossible with plant-based diets.

I know someone that has a nut allergy and also is vegan.

There are more severe cases, but I don't think it is a good idea to gloss over the fact of animal exploitation too, since people who are absolutely able to follow plant-based diets have some explanations to do when they call themselves anarchist.

The police/RWE was creeping on with their infrastructure for years, this operation began in early December. I don't know how deep trenches need to be to stop machinery that literally is building one giant trench.

Disruption, Infiltration

Greta T. can do what Greta T. wants, but the strength of dealing with arrest there was relative anonymity - Greta T. is everything but anonymous. Sure, they fill additional resources in GeSa, but in terms of ID procedure, they're done in no time.

I think I'm just mad about their comments about nuclear power.

Everyone chooses their fights sooner or later. Whether these fights are shared and their progresses are defendable shouldn't depend on the definition of merit: Anarchist spaces can become worthless without sufficient reproduction (e.g. food), but at the same time, tonnes of food won't stop any eviction by itself. I'd argue that merit is immeasurable - meritocracy thus creates a very diffuse archy with a seemingly powerful legitimation strategy.

Violence hurts and when you're presented with the dangers of intra-communal abuse right after, you really understand the importance of rejection of leftist unity and of mutual aid and friendship - it won't protect you though, but help in repair.

There was concrete, steel bars, spikes, bricks, stones, trees et cetera. I guess you're right, but the next step would've been 18th century European forts-style fortifications and this isn't possible with fluctuating population sizes of 75 to 1500 people, without electricity, in winter and constant tool problems, everlasting plenaries about violence definitions and a authority infrastructure creep.

Also, this place was never a fort, it grew somewhat into a settlement, village or city. It's culture wasn't only defined by pickaxes, shovels and crowbars, but also by books, murals, guitars, sleeping bags, radish, insects, climbing, straw and rats.

In the 1966 miniseries Treasure Island there's a scene where Jim snacks raisins and when I was younger it baffled me that one can just snack raisins. From now on I sometimes snacked them during class and a lot of the others were weirded out (also because of the smell: 'Why does it smell like raisins here?').
