Activistic Cronyism

The use of social, political, or environmental activism as a cover to reward allies, friends, or insiders, rather than to achieve genuine reform.
“Their diversity initiative was just activistic cronyism — top jobs went to the same insiders with a fresh PR spin.”

“That senator’s climate task force is activistic cronyism at its finest; it’s packed with donors and lobbyists who profit from the policies.”

“The charity claimed to fight inequality, but their funding choices screamed activistic cronyism — friends of the board got all the grants.”

Infographic activist

An “activist” who’s only form of activism and gathering of information are through infographics that just often pop up in their feed or are shared by their friends. A performative activist, if you will.
