Harkle Humanitarianism 

Share definition Flag
When you work for a social cause solely because of something you want to change to benefit yourself. Otherwise you wouldn’t do anything to help. You use other people as props for a social “problem” you want changed to stop people from criticizing you or to get credit for something you never actually do, or both.
Meghan Markle: Harry, I’m the most trolled person in the world! Let’s start a foundation and never give money of our own. We just need to attach ourselves to small established charities and then take over their activities and put our name first. That way we give very little to nothing and yet we get all the credit! And for the mental health day, let’s call it a “summit” and get People magazine to say Archewell is hosting it and don’t mention all the real charities that organized this day and worked with the real victims. Act like we are the big donors. And then we can take credit for it, sit on stage with microphones, next to the US Surgeon General & Carson Daly, and pontificate about the topic! We’ll be the best humanitarians in the world & go after all the issues we don’t like. Like people who criticize us on social media or in the press. I mean the 1st Amendment IS bonkers, right?! That’s our brand! Harkle Humanitarianism!”

The striver lets his grades pay his education by applying to ten scholarships a year.

The striver is a future Soros/Fullbright/Rhodes/Gates/Marshall/etc. fellow. The striver lives to study.
