My problem with land acknowledgements is that they don't come with any concrete action afterwards. The passive voice "land was taken from you" would almost be bearable of they followed it up with "here's a qr code to donate" or something.

To me it almost feels like bragging about the land you took. There's never any intention to do reparations or anything like that.
It does have a bit of the same energy as listing each privilege you enjoy in excruciating detail before you voice your opinion.
