Is faptivism a word?
Self-congratulatory fake activism that just makes the faptivist feel so good?
Faptivists buy lots of Toms and have KONY2012 posters up and maybe even donated some money to that elderly monitor lady who got harassed on the bus.
But they think it’s okay to say the n-word and dress up in war paint for “native american theme parties” and make sandwich jokes. Their faptivism acts like an activist carbon offset for all the oppressive things they do and support daily.
If an English Major agrees that it’s a word, it’s a word.
Is there an English Major in the house?
I’m a linguist? And anyway I reject the authority vested in English majors by Western higher education to determine what is and is not legit language.
It’s a word if it does the memey thing. It’s a word because you asked the question.
