It’s just a word. I don’t use buzzwords. They are performing, like trained seals, without any real understanding. Most will scatter when the semester ends.
More understanding would probably make them even more angry. Besides that a giant generalization.

By the way, nearly every protest stretching back as far as you want to go is "performative," because protesters are usually powerless to do anything besides protest and maybe write letters to the editor or congresspeople.
