Performative Activism Is Peak Liberal Bullsh*t That Changes Nothing
from We Saw the Devil: Crime & Political Analysis · host We Saw the Devil
t’s almost June, which means every brand is about to slap a rainbow on their logo and send emails saying "we see you." Meanwhile, they’re quietly funding politicians who back Don't Say Gay bills. But yeah, thanks for the rainbow debit card. Super brave of you.This week I'm honestly just going off on all the performative activist bs that’s been clogging our feeds for a decade. I'm talking about the black squares that literally buried actual BLM resources, the whole corporate Pride grift, and those pink pussy hats (yeah, sorrynotsorry). I'm also dragging those Notes app apologies written by publicists and the little award show pins that basically became a perpetual red carpet accessory.Basically, if your activism doesn't actually scare the people in charge, it's just marketing, and you're the product.
