Performative Liberalism

When someone tries so hard to look liberal that it starts feeling like a performance art piece. Usually involves flexing their “wokeness” at every opportunity, treating social justice like a competition, and making sure everyone knows they’re the most progressive person in the room.

They’ll post endless photos with marginalized groups (but only for the optics), brag about their “diverse friend group,” and side-eye anyone who doesn’t speak in the latest approved vocabulary. It’s less about genuine empathy and more about getting liberal points.

Did you see Amy call me a radical republican? All I said was I don’t want to call Emily a cat. She even posted about it in her story. She is definition performative liberalism!

A performative man is a man who seeks to distance himself from the rest of his gender by acting in ways that are traditionally feminine, e.g drinking matcha, reading, painting their nails and being a #feminist. Common behaviours of these types of men are saying (in reference to another man's behaviour) "that's so bad, i would never do that, " claiming to be emotionally intelligent or 'one of the girls' and being bisexual.

"Is that a labubu keychain on your jorts? Are you going to a performative man competition?"
