Chronic Armchair-Activism Performance
Ostentatio activismi minima
Clinical description

Patient has, in the last 14 days, reposted 47 infographics about 14 different crises. Has donated to none of them. Has not attended a meeting, made a phone call, written a letter, or shown up anywhere physical. The reposting makes patient feel, briefly, that something has been done. Something has, technically, been done — to the patient's feed. The crisis is, structurally, unchanged.

Prognosis

Chronic. The repost rate scales with the number of active crises.

Recommended treatment

None. One phone call would, apparently, exceed one month of feed activity.

What is this?

Chronic Armchair-Activism Performance is a chronic behavioral condition cataloged by the Institute. It is not recognized by the DSM-5, the ICD-11, or any existing diagnostic framework — and will not be, because it is not a real condition.

In the Institute's formal nomenclature, this condition is catalogued under the Latin binomial Ostentatio activismi minima — a name not recognized by any medical authority but observed repeatedly in the catalog.
