Keyboarding

A racist white-centering thing white people do instead of activism

Especially prevalent when a pandemic prevents white people from doing their other boarding like surfboarding and snowboarding, keyboarding is a white hobby of writing enormous diatribes about white feelings, such as outrage about black people being brutalized and killed by police officers.

Keyboarding is often used to sidestep actual activism, such as reposting people of color or engaging in the direct action asked of them such as making calls or writing letters to other white people.

Keyboarding was first made popular in the civil rights movement by white moderates and liberals, who Martin Luther King lamented were a "great stumbling block," and Malcolm X described as "the worst enemy to America."
"Did you see that post going viral? 'Black people, we're here for you!' It's so moving."
"Sounds like keyboarding."

"I finally got my aunt to stop keyboarding. She kept saying she was fighting white supremacy -- so embarrassing, right?!"
"Yikes! Hopefully you reminded her every white person spends an average of 22 hours a day enjoying and building white supremacy."

Typing on Mobile Keyboards

Even worse than typing on Xbox, PlayStation, and TV.
Person 1: I haye being alive
Person 2: Hate*
Person 1: Bruh, I will fucking slam this phone/ipad through a god damn stalagmite if I make one more fucking spelling error.
Person 2: Damn. Typing on mobile keyboards must suck.
