I Won't Be a Half Activist

You eat Mcdonalds while joining anti-war protests
And protest sweatshops while wearing Gap clothes
You drink commercial beer while talking about food security
And wear Nike shoes while talking about ecology

You have an indentured female servant at home while being a feminist activist
You practice religious tradition while talking about empowerment
You use aluminium while resisting nuclear power plants
And bathe in Facebook while being against American government policies

Has it become a fashion these days to be an activist?
What happens in thirty years when the bourgeois activists get old?

I won't just sit and talk
Exploitation hides in our daily lives
The mainstream will not flood me away
I won't be a half-assed activist
