how am I defining problematic people? well threatening me with a machete for little reason is pretty obvious. and he was paranoid cause he was a drug dealer and I didn't care about that at all but it nonetheless, was why.

more generally, it would be people who behave in very selfish and destructive ways that dramatically effect other people's use of the space and the devil is always in the details with this stuff. everybody needs to be interested in trying to deal with conflict because the alternatives are denial and/or replication of the same old power dynamics from outside the space.

but this is always what happens with squats and blockades and autonomous zones of almost every kind ... have you never experienced what you're talking about here?
