I keep on reading these complaints about virtue signalling, yet I rarely come across it myself, at least on the internet. Perhaps things are different in America, where people are much more talkative. In Prague people don't talk about themselves to nearly the degree that people do in America. However, you're speaking in an international environment, and you're really "throwing the dirt around" (to use a Czech phrase) at those who try to be ethical. I know, you're probably jumping at the edge of your seat wanting to protest that there is nothing unethical about watching TV. But those who don't own a TV often have ethical reasons, such as not wanting to be entrenched in consumerism promoting advertisements and product placement, or not wanting to have their political views overly influenced by sensationalist mainstream-ism.
