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."

Keyboard comedian

A person who happens to be very funny online, on forums or private conversations, but ends up being pretty boring, awkward or hard to talk to in the real world.
-I really thought we were going to have a better yesterday with Matt, he seemed like he was so clever and funny on Facebook. Turns out he was just weird and awkward in person.
-Yeah, he's a keyboard comedian.

Keyboard Diarrhea

The act of pressing multiple keys in a random order to symbolise excitement, shock, and other explosive emotions. Often reminds one of diarrhea due to the stringent rule of making sure that it sounds fluid.
Can also refer to keyboard warriors typing complete, and absolute, bullshit.
A Legend On Mangadex: You're so "the type" that even with that keyboard diarrhea you'd somehow managed to address nothing. Fuck off, I've had it with you insecure mensa rejects. Blocked.
