Inactivist 

A portmanteau of "internet" and "activist" to more efficiently and accurately label and understand self-described "activists" who "spread awareness," complain about stuff or make idle demands about how things ought to be or the way they should be done online in petitions, blogs, forums, comment sections and social media, but who have no real intention, plan or ability to do or participate in anything in real life; especially those who post under pseudonyms out of fearful pretense that they are of any consequence to the powers that be against whom they believe they so fervently struggle.

The politically-minded prototype for the "social media influencer," more accurately and concisely known as "floozies."

The inactivists are posting up a storm this week, we can probably expect some sternly-worded online petitions soon.

Political Inactivism 

The use of direct, often confrontational action meant to instigate social and political change, through Facebook and Twitter posts. Inactivists will often point to the root or cause of a social issue without directing the audience toward a course of action or even a coherent alternative viewpoint.

Inactivist 

An inactivist is any ideologue who claims merit for activism, while doing little more than complain to their circle of friends about what should be done to further their ideology.

An inactivist claims to fight for a cause, while only engaging in actions that further their own popularity.
While claiming to fight for equal rights, the internet inactivist rarely left his computer, or engaged in any offline protests.

Trumpvirus’s Infectivity 

The rate at which Donald J. Trump’s conspiracies and lies about fraudulent ballots brainwashes his oft-gullible hardcore supporters to donate to the post-election fund to "protect the results and keep fighting even after Election Day.”
Trumpvirus’s infectivity incited both Trumpists and QAnonists to contribute tens of millions of dollars, which could be used to settle part of the president’s bigly debt and to finance his own political rallies, especially if he’s running again in 2024 (assuming that he’s not behind bars by then).
