I've been spending months muting every single one of the subs where that shit is allowed. I'm an ally myself, but the virtue signaling is just bottom of the barrel.
Few years ago I remember all the memes of "X Character says trans rights" and anyone complaining the memes were lazy would get called Transphobes, rather than just wanting better memes
Literally just got that post, and it’s pathetic how narrow minded they are.
You can agree, and be an ally. And nowadays that’s still not enough, and that’s a shame. It’s a simple “all with us” or “all against us” mindset by locking out anyone who dares to even try to say anything of their own volition or thought, and it’s really regressive for having a proper conversation.
I left the Sailor Moon sub about 3 years ago now, because about 80% of the posts were just virtue signalling, and it was moderated like shit.
It's just the sheer self-importance of it all, this stupid idea that anybody who doesn't publicly announce the same opinion as you is an enemy, it's on the same level as going "I'm not bad at the game, the game's bad at me!"
It's a whole free for all mindset that operates on that stupid, self-congratulating approach to everything these people say and do. I think some of us tend to forget, many of these people would, upon wrecking their car into a family of four, conclude that it was the fault of the car.
They would be on X in a hospital bed thumping their chest about how Ford is an evil corporation for allowing them to drive an "unsafe car".
All SJWs want to do is virtue signal because they learned in their mid-teens that doing so is what makes their phone light up and make fun sounds. And when all you've done for 12 years is commit to echo chambers online, you'll trick yourself into thinking you're a Messiah on a subject. Or in general.
Political discussion is one thing, but the constant virtue signalling, the "this character holds this political opinion, everyone else sucks", this shit needed to be gone YESTERDAY.
Same energy as those people on twitter who scream “FREE PALESTINE” while not contributing to any charity created for Palestine. If you take this as me being political about the whole Palestine and Israel conflict, then you’re a lost cause.
Ironically, the artist isn't even American. He's Turkish.

Virtue signaling has become so insanely important on social media. On reddit you can even add flags to your pfp to show how enlightened you are.

virtual signaling fetish
Sonic wouldn't agree to have top scars and Spiderman wouldn't be saying "Punch Nazis" and it's just Trump
Good call
