Virtue Signal

Virtue signalling is when somebody superficiality advertises their support for a cause and goes out of their way to publicly condemn others in order to seek validation. Drawing attention to their self righteousness to appear morally superior.

Karen: “You’re a jerk because you wear Nike, don’t you know they exploit people overseas”.

Andre: “You’re Chanel bag was made overseas too, virtue signalling doesn’t make you any better than anybody else!”.

Virtue Signalling

One of the many nauseating buzzwords used by conservatives as an alternative to constructing a coherent argument.

Don’t worry, it doesn’t mean anything - and actually doubles as a good way to spot cretins in the wild.

“This guy just said virtue signalling unironically, let’s get away from this asshat”

virtue signalling

A phenomena where someone campaigns for or otherwise shows their support for an often popular position without actually doing anything meaningful to further the cause that they claim to champion. This is one of the main signs of late democracy and otherwise shows the prevalence of cult figures in a society: political or otherwise.
Also takes form with "thoughts and prayers", and other meaningless statements.

-Damn, all of these people are virtue signalling about the Freedom Convoy.
-The easiest way to become respected on twitter is to virtue signal in support of trans rights.
