Alertism
The common practise of identifying a problem without even attempting to suggest a solution.
This can range from tangible problems (e.g. a broken cupboard door that is simply flagged to housemates via WhatsApp) to more intangible problems (e.g. a therapist merely pointing out toxic behaviours without offering suggestions for how to change those behaviours and/or what aspirational healthy behaviours could look like).
Those that practice this often feel that through identifying a problem they have done their bit or done enough. In reality, without the follow-through, the problem remains but we just see it more clearly.

The difference between The Great Hack and The Social Dilemma is that the latter actually offered a solution - the former was just one great big exercise in alertism.

When one comes across people acting in a manner that is the epitome of the college lifestyle, one may alert others of the occurance.
