tagamo3 activism

It is a kind of extremely performative activism that is exclusive to Egypt's upper class. It is a kind of activism/politics that is mainly characterized by being:
-exclusively communicated in either English or franco when most Egyptians only speak Arabic,
-political ideals and demands that are completely disconnected from the cultural and political contexts of Egypt,
-political ideals and demands that are actually just straight up deranged,
-very shallow and ambiguous ideals and demands,
-happens to be almost always photocopied from Western twitter without even so much of an attempt to rediscover a more appropriate approach for the context they exist in,
-has no idea how to solve a problem, isn't even trying to solve a problem, just wants to be a "part of something bigger",
-desperate attempts to turn every single inconvenience into a social or political issue,
-usually practiced by very young people.
