This is also a silly argument because praxis has meant the same thing it means now since before English existed as a language, so it’s not even like, a recent invention.
Yes but nobody in my outreach group uses it and we even had an hour long discussion into why the word was useless. It’s a buzz word co-opted by leftists radicalized on the web that use it frequently to have some weird pissing contest over “how much praxis” they’ve done.
It stands for the practical application of ideological principles, it’s just a shortened version of that. It should just be “helping peoole” ffs.

These are literally two different concepts. “Praxis” is the application of theory (as you say). “Helping people” is meaninglessly vague. I’m seriously confused by the argument that “praxis” is useless but “helping people” is somehow a specific, useful term.

All words are shortened versions of longer explanations, that’s why dictionaries exist.

I have news for you about how words are made.
