PRilanthropy 

Self-serving, self-aggrandizing, highly selective and 'media managed' Corporate-Political Elitist 'Charity' aka Philanthropy, often if not always coincidentally tax deductible.

A "pretty nice" way to avoid Social Responsibilities like 'Ultimate Cost' and conceal modern-day Wage Slavery.
The Corporatorium* utilized maximum PRilanthropy in their strategic media mix of 'programming' people to accept Globalized 'Acquisitons & Mergers', which no sane species would otherwise allow.

facebook philanthropist 

someone who feels guilty about their affluent lifestyle and their being too busy to really do anything about the plight of the world, so they join all the groups on Facebook like "if 1 million people join this group, I will FedEx a sandwich to a kid in Africa" or "April 23rd, 3:58pm, international minute of silence in solidarity with all the people who couldnt talk for a minute because of fucked up situations". Dont get me wrong, I am all about working for change in the world and giving help to those who need it the most, but come on people, do you really think your Facebook group is going to make that much of a difference?!
Jack was too lazy to attend the food drive so instead he joined 10 more Facebook groups. What a Facebook Philanthropist.

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.

Me: Woah! TLDU!
