interactivism

Activism for humanitarian or political causes taking part interactively on the internet. When physical involvement is not a possibility, interactivism usually is. The internet is a fantastic tool for communication, and as with all forms of communication before it, it can be used to influence other people through the sharing of ideas and opinions.

Amnesty International launched a trend on Twitter and a petition on Facebook; encouraging people to take part in interactivism!

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.
