The feeling of intense exhaustion you get after posting a black square on your instagram and calling it a day. Also applies to a picture of a rainbow in June.
Person 1: Hey you able to go to the protest tonight?
Person 2: Nah I'm exhausted after a hard day of activism, my black square got 200k likes!
Person 1: Curse you, allyship fatigue!

When someone supports a minority community, not out of a desire for equality or understanding, but because the stereotypes and “quirkiness” of the community are entertaining to them. Circus-Monkey Allies may uplift and express support for said minorities, but only the parts that they find amusing or can understand, like how one would treat an exotic animal in a zoo.
“I love gay guys and go to pride each year, but I’d never want my friend to be a lesbian. What if she hits on me?”
“That kinda feels like circus-monkey allyship, Emily”
