Does activist have a pejorative meaning?

Answer:

An activist may be a super patriot unbeknown to the general public. Political Activism is a course undertaken by usually a handfull of very knowledgeable citizens who are concerned regarding an issue that the public refuses to address in its importance.
I have been involved in anti nuclear activism in regard to the siting of the largest nuclear waste dump in the U.S. near my former home, Trumansburg, in the Finger Lakes Region of N.Y.
Our efforts in 1979 prevented the poisoning of the water supply of the Region and saved the lives of several millions of residents and their land values, crops, herds and children's health . Of course my wife and I suffered immensely for our efforts of exposing the Cayuga Indian Land Settlement as a U.S. Government Dept. of Energy Fraud to obtain Connecticut Hill, N.Y. State Land for a Dump site
So, Activism does has only a heroic Context in this regard.
The industries attempting to get their waste buried would consider us better jailed than pejorative.
