"i'm an emotionally unstable person who is suddenly passionate about an event or situation that's never mattered to me. Time to get my rusty pitchfork out of my shed and display some pitchfork activism."

Get the pitchfork activism mug.This is a form of activism that started with the millennial generation and became main stream due to Gen Z and the “fairy comment” subculture.
The influence of the movie Mean Girls and other cliche holidaywood coming of age films centered around teenage drama made “mean girl behavior” more acceptable for a period of time. As millennials grew up and became socially aware, these former mean girls abandoned their tactics of criticizing other women.
With these dormant mean girl skills, many millennial mean girls created mean girl activism. Mean girl activism took all the typical high school mean girl behavior and changed the target to elected officials or other sources of influence in order to rally support for a specific cause.
Girls who are bullies and use "girl agression" (nasty comments, trickery, deceit, excluding people from events, spreading rumors, stealing boyfriends,etc.) to manipulate others are now using these skills to help push for policy reform and legislative change . They will use text messaging, email, three-way-calling, social media blasting, and any other weapon at their disposal to acheieve these goals.
These girls are often popular because everyone is either afraid of them or wants to be like them. They tend to have armies of followers comprising their clique. Mean girl activists use this popularity to their advantage to influence their clique to sign petitions, make donations, attend protests, vote, and cyber bully elected officials.

“I used to be such a mean girl in high school until I grew up and matured into a mean girl activist. Now when I feel that urge come along, I call the major and list out every physical imperfection I can find on his face as well as what cosmetic procedures he needs to fix them. After that I demand he defunds the police”
