Precisely. We should not try things which, blatantly obviously, do not work, because it distracts and takes precious resources from things that actually do work

Precisely. We should not try things which, blatantly obviously, do not work, because it distracts and takes precious resources from things that actually do work. That applies to BLM in the same way as it applied to covid, as well as climate change and million other things. Virtue-signalling theater is distracting at best and harmful at worst.
- qsdf38100 5y agoI think virtue signalling should actually be happening more, not in the sense "I pretend to care", but in the sense "Those are the values I stand for". I see a lot of ambiguous statements these days, from too many people. People not wanting to "take sides", but in reality not yet willing to say they only stand for their personal interests, if not for a return to the law of the fittest. What do you stand for?
