Pastel Posting

(Verb) The Act of posting one-sided & unreliably sourced social media photos or tweets preaching about a complex political issue in an attempt to feel good about oneself for doing next to nothing. The name originates from the common “Pastel” colored font & graphics displayed on many Instagram posts.

Most commonly (but not always) associated with young socially-leftist & “woke” college aged kids.
I unfollowed her on Instagram after her feed devolved into repeated pastel posting about The Israeli Palestine conflict.

Millions of pastel posts from American children did absolutely nothing to sway Xi Jinping’s mind on the issue.
