reactivist 

A person who immediately supports either physically, vocally, or interactively a cause or movement on the merit of how they feel about an issue or incident before all the facts surrounding the galvanizing issue or incident are completely known.
He was enraged at the apparent lack of concern for the feelings of those offended and immediately joined other reactivists on social media posting to get the offending party censured.

Reactivist 

A portmanteau of "Reactive Activist," refers to a person that expresses a knee-jerk reaction to a perceived issue that they know of solely because it was brought to their attention; either by pop culture osmosis or explicitly brought to them. The issues they bring up are usually missing context that the Reactivist is either unaware of or refuses to research out of fear of being wrong. This is sometimes to get attention, but usually is because it's easier to give a hot take on social media than make an informed opinion.
Anime girl: *Is an adult, but short*
Reactivists: Clearly this is an underage girl, how dare anime.

Reactionist 

A self-proclaimed artist who has nothing original to offer and only reacts, negatively or hyper-negatively, to other forms of art, events in society and politics. A critic ashamed of admitting his/her true job description. A resentful twat who marks every new thing as either "been-there-done-that" or something of the form "kids-these-days...". A reactionary, but only limited to political context.
Abby: Have you seen Dave's comments on Rachel's troll-faced concert pics!! Burn!!

Reactionist 

A dumb term used by these guys. Reactionist are not to be confused with reactors for they are original. Reactionist are not original. In fact they're terrible.

Why are they terrible? Well here's what they do: they watch a video and they react to it. You may be saying to yourself "Well that doesn't sound too bad." Well here's the thing: they aren't even creative about it. No editing, no jokes, nothing. They play the video and its entirety and give the occasional "oh shit" or "dayum" while rambling on at the end.

You may be saying, "Well ok, that sounds bad, but it's not like their hurting anybody right?" Well here's the thing: THEY ARE.

Let's say a YouTuber made an animation and he/she uploaded it to YouTube. He/she worked really hard on it and they could really use the views for money. A reactionist uploads a reaction to it. Now an average viewer could stumble across the video but instead of watching the animator's version, the viewer watches the reactionist's video. The viewer doesn't watch the animator's version because he/she already watched the reactionist's version. The reactionist gets the money when it should be going to the animator's.

Again, there's a difference between a reactor and a reactionist. A reactor doesn't show the whole video.

Also don't believe it's helping a channel who wants advice. It's called a review.

In the end, reactionists are terrible people whose channels should be taken down. They're shitty videos for twats.
I uploaded a video but a reactionist got all the money.

Sucks.

relativistic 

moving at an extremely high velocity.

From the Special Theory of Relativity published in 1905 by Albert Einstein and his expression e=mc^2.

Although this term is strictly a hyperbole, since only very small particles in lab accelerators can approach the speed of light, it's use can be an appropriate exaggeration in certain cases.
I just got passed by an R1, he was relativistic!

moral relativist 

A moral relativist is one with a snarky attitude and bloated sense of self-importance. They can be found loitering about college campus' for years on end in multiple graduate school programs. If you are unfortunate to have one in your freshman philosophy class they will ask "questions" that are not so carefully disguised claims of superiority over the professor and all other students. Often known to despise organized religion and wear anti-religious bigotry on his/her sleeve, while displaying outrage at all other forms of bigotry. They become loud and angry if you point out that such outrage ironically hinges on moral absolutism.
- There is no right and wrong, there is only perception of right and wrong.
- Is that so? Well you won't mind if I do this.
::smacks moral relativist in the mouth::
- OW! Why did you do that?
- I perceived it as the right thing to do during this conversation.

Back when I lived in upstate new york 

A meaningless, unimpressive, self-serving introduction. An indicator that the story about to be shared will be pointless and dumb.
Back when I lived in upstate new york, I also had to park on the street - on two occasions, we got enough snow, mixed with just the right plowing, that my car was lifted off the ground from so much snow being jammed underneath it.
