Slacktivist

A person that does simple things like change their avatar colour or post a status update about a cause instead of actively supporting the cause.

Slacktivists twitter/facebook:

slacktivism

The self-deluded idea that by liking, sharing, or retweeting something you are helping out.

John:"Did you see Facebook last night?"
Steve:"Yeah it was just a bunch of slacktivism with that Kony 2012 video"

slacktivism

The act of participating in obviously pointless activities as an expedient alternative to actually expending effort to fix a problem.

Signing an email petition to stop rampant crime is slacktivism. Want to really make your community safer? Get off your ass and start a neighborhood watch!

slacktivity 

the activity you do, or participate in to put off doing something that is not as fun, but more important.

My favorite slacktivity to do instead of writing my 5 page paper that is due tomorrow is to look up random words on Urbandictionary.com.

slacktivism

One of those feel-good internet campaigns that doesn't actually help anybody or has political impact. It's your way of pretending to care while sitting on your butt in front of a computer playing WoW.

Also used for people who want to get a million people on their page by before bettering themselves or the world instead of just doing it.

Girl: Let's show our support by changing our Facebook statuses to promote what color our bras are!

Boy: Why does your status say "nothing"?

Girl: I'm supporting breast cancer awareness via Facebook!

Boy: One of the best examples of slacktivism I've ever heard of...
