The use of direct, often confrontational action meant to instigate social and political change, through Facebook and Twitter posts. Inactivists will often point to the root or cause of a social issue without directing the audience toward a course of action or even a coherent alternative viewpoint.
Steven got caught up in Political Inactivism today when he protested Obamacare on Facebook for 4 hours straight and then ate a ham sandwich and forgot.

Get the Political Inactivismmug. One who apologizes profusely for something that they really are not sorry for but to give the illusion of feeling remorse.
Guy 1 says: "I'm so sorry for stepping on your cat."
Guy 2 says: " No, you're not you're just being 'penny polite'!"

Get the penny politemug. Politically radioactive people create irreparable damage and loss of credibility through simple association. Usually because they have no credibility and make crazy statements that lack basic truth.

Get the politically radioactivemug. Political theatre is an illusion of choice presented by the political elite to the voter, that their vote has an impact on the future of the nation. It in fact does not, you are simply an observer while Republicans and Democrats are two sides of the same coin, America is technically a one party corporatist state.
Person 1: Why has nothing changed in America, why do we still suffer even though we vote for people who are supposed to represent us
Person 2: Political Theatre my friend, it's all a facade.

Get the Political Theatremug. A seduction into power. A candidate promises all kinds of bullshit to increase their appeal and convince the blissfully ignorant to vote for them. Once in power they have everything they need and therefore don't have to give a damn about the masses anymore. as well as this all the bullshit they promised beforehand is revealed to be: bullshit, much to the dismay of voters. Strangely the majority doesn't seem to catch on about this, and this method has been utilised to the same effect ever since.
Political elections are bullshit. Next time you see the successor to the throne preaching about how much better your lives are going to be once they're in the power palace, get out there and hunt these traitors down, hang them for deceiving the public and take back the money they were taking off you to fund the austerity brigade, arms dealers, media circus, conformity agents and the domination state.
