In this essay, we comment on two highly visible, popular tweets in our datasets around the #hijab that were flagged as highly popular in October 2022. These two tweets are demonstrative of two types of commonly visible strategies on social media—one based on a strategy of intentional context collapse and the other performative activism that serves to extract value for the Twitter user through selective allyship. The essay is taken from a larger investigation around the hashtaggification of “hijab” in 2022 that looks at debates and discussions specifically around two contexts that collide through #hijab—one context is from India and another from Iran
