Person who makes sure to watch every trending Netflix documentary about social issues in the world (ex. Blackfish, Ted Bundy, Tiger King, R. Kelly, etc), and makes sure to post a "novel" about it on social media, but never actually researches social issues or tries to change the world for the better.
"Did you see Breanna's huge Facebook post about R. Kelly?"
"Yep. Just being a Netflix Activist as usual."

When a group or organisation is infiltrated by those representing minority interests in such a way that they gain significant influence or control and then use this to push their desired agenda.
Activist capture is usually a deliberate process initiated by outsiders of the group or organisation. Tactics include: *Making demands for representation, often citing a lack thereof
*Calls for allyships
*Forming of a bloc that is used to drown out individual members and amplify their own voices
* Liberal use and accusations of "isms" and "phobias" designed to force compliance through fear
*Threats or intimidation if the above doesn't work
Activist capture is a strategy used when it is highly unlikely that a brand new group representing activist interests will gain anywhere near the power or influence of the existing one.

Someone who is active in sitting around, arguing about something they hate, and rise up in groups to complain and due nothing about something they have an opinion about. An opinion nobody cares about except them.
I am an “activist”, here’s my complaint(yells violently, throwing a temper tantrum) “Then sits around and does nothing about it”
