Muhammad Ali was more famous than Conor, he used to walk around without bodyguards. That’s why so many people have an “I met Muhammad Ali” story.
Media Conor Mcgregor personally visiting homeless encampments to feed them (no bodyguards, a man of the people)

If the option is between being virtue signalling and being vulgar but good, I would choose the latter all day. But that is not the option I was weighing. I am a realist, so I am looking at the options we have.
The choice we are generally presented with is between virtue signalling and being vulgar and unabashed in one's baseness.
In this specific case we compare sober virtue signalling Conor helping at least a couple of homeless people versus brash, shirt open, drunken, Conor celebrating some debauchery. I prefer the former.
I prefer the bad character (whether a so called libtard, or reborn Conor, or a principled conservative) that still knows what good is enough to signal/fake it over the bad character that does not even recognize the good enough to fake it/ want to fake it. The reason is that the former can more easily be oriented toward the good, even if only for show, whereas the latter first has to be made aware that it's bearings are off before it can even be reoriented.
This is an important topic these days (most days for all of history, but with some urgency in times like this), and so I am happy to engage this in more depth if you remain unconvinced.
The truth of the matter is that we are awash in ignorance and baseness, and most people do not even have the sense to know what they are arguing over or what they are saying.
They (you in this case) throw around terms like "virtue signalling", or some (others) will say "right wing", or "conservative", or "liberal snow flake", without knowing what they even mean.
Most people cannot describe/define liberalism or conservatism to save their life, to say less of fascism or virtue, which is problematic since that is the language they are using to argue their points.
So yeah, is Conor psychologically manipulating me to question my perception of reality (gaslighting)? I say no. He is trying to convince me he is a good person by signalling the behaviour of a good person. Is he a slightly better person for doing so than if he was not even trying? I say yes. Dance for me baby.

Fake news.
More like when Mcgregor wanted details that Poirier’s charity was an actual charity, he didn’t get them.
He ended up donating the 500k to a better charity in Louisiana, and Poirier even apologize to him over the matter.
McGregor gives $500K to charity, but not Poirier's
After a back-and-forth on social media, Conor McGregor has opted not to give $500,000 to Dustin Poirier's foundation, with the money instead being donates to the Boys & Girls Club in Louisiana.

Dustin Poirier's charity,
The Good Fight Foundation, is a legitimate registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that actively conducts charitable work. However, it has faced criticism for a lack of transparency in its financial reporting.
Legitimacy and Activities
- Registered Nonprofit: The foundation is a fully registered international nonprofit founded by Dustin Poirier and his wife Jolie to give back to their hometown in Louisiana.

Yep they are registered as a 501c4 and?
Do you know how many registered non profits are shady? They aren’t transparent with how they use their money.
Why would Mcgregor give 500k if you won’t say what it is for? He gave to a charity that would say what it’s for.
He asked Dustin what he was going to do with the 500k and Dustin wouldn’t say, that’s why Dustin ended up publicly apologizing

i've had similar experiences. my gf tried to help a dude out one time and offered to buy him food and he turned his nose up at it unless he could go in and order for himself. my gf is a sucker for this kind of thing and she was actually taking this guy's order while he's looking at us like we're the help.

It's Conor who was trying to reneg on the charity offer so he found a way to weasal out and then threatened to kill Dustin and his wife after he got finished two times straight.
The Good Fight Foundation is a registered 501(c)(3) public charity, not a 501(c)(4). This means they are subject to strict IRS regulations regarding transparency and must file Form 990s, which publicly disclose their financial activities. You can literally track their projects—like building water wells in Uganda or donating car seats to hospitals—on their social media and website."
Poirier's foudation is 100%.

You really trying to argue because someone is a registered 501c3 they can’t commit fraud because they have to file with the IRS?
lol. You can form a 501c3 in hours.
Dustin didn’t give details, Mcgregor still donated to another charity. Mcgregor win.

Your assertion that Poirier runs some kind of scam charity to get Conor off the hook for lying when he promised the money is questionable.
He's a rapist cheatubg low life drug addict who punches old men and grinds with midgets buddeh.

I mean really depends on the intent of the celebrity. Sometimes it might start off as PR stunt but then they really wanna help out after getting involved. Other times, i think the poor are better left off alone -like MAdonna's adopted African son she took as a toddler

I don’t know, he was adopted so he was unwanted or an orphan.
Life is pretty short and brutal when you are a unwanted orphan in a insanely poor third world country.

Why do you think Conor is losing popularity and Khabib is going to pass him on instragram soon?
It's because people aren't falling for his nice guy gestures anymore.

You think Mcgregor has fans because he has a “nice” guy character? What are you smoking?
He has fans because he’ll trash talk religion, family, and cause he’s a gangster.
He just so happens to also do nice things.
His nickname is notorious, it isn’t Mr. Nice.
