It’s not virtue signaling. It’s status signaling.

Relative virtue unlocks projective folds. Hence it’s usually a question of reading the play. ⚾️

Not a good point. People know what virtue is, they simply disagree about it. Still insisting on pushing your narrative as if it’s self-evident. Now imagine what happens when everyone does that and it differs from each other. No narrative wins, but an amalgam of them.

Virtue doesn’t exist in a world of subjective morality. What they are really signaling is conformity.

Agree. “Virtue” should be used in quotes when talking about the wokesters.

“If your good at something you’ll tell people, if your great they’ll tell you” Possibly the best sports related quote I’ve ever heard. Many applications

They mistake the little dopamine burst in their brain as “virtue.”

When you do your good deeds, do not sound a trumpet as do the hypocrites.
