I guess if the SJW's weren't making their own assumptions regarding intent when they try to brand people as racist, homophobe, etc., nobody would be peering into their psyche. What goes around comes around.
Virtue-signaling seldom involves any argument. Just shaming based on a knee-jerk PC reaction.
This post kind of reinforces what I mean though. Why is "virtue signaling" reserved for virtues being signaled by left wingers? Is it not virtue signaling when right wing virtues are being signaled? It is the same exact thing.
I think there is a silly hypocrisy in the term. Somehow, it only applies to left wingers that are deemed phony by right wingers. Meanwhile, the same right wingers who accuse leftists of virtue signaling spend most of their time signaling their own side's virtues.
Does this not seem silly to anyone else? I feel like our country is entirely dumbed down to spouting off catch phrases and buzz words instead of really putting any thought into what others say, and what they say.
