It's good to point out that the virtual singal comment is in fact itself a virtue signal. I am not sure why commenters and authors can get away with it's usage without any push back.
- smallgovt 7y agoEven if calling out 'virtual signalling' is itself virtue signalling, it doesn't make the original statement less valid. And, if the original statement is valid, I don't see why it requires push back. It's like saying: "You're stupid" "No, you're stupid!" Ok, you're both stupid!
- learc83 7y agoIn my case I believe that the original statement calling out "virtue signaling" was wrong. And on top of being wrong they were being hypocritical because they were doing the exact thing that they were, wrongly in my opinion, calling out others for doing.
