They are just made up terms for those that can't think for themselves. Just the sheep that follow the herd.

Virtue signalling is a term meant to cast aspersions on anyone who holds values other than the speaker. Is it virtue signalling to state you are a vegetarian?, that you eat only what you grow? that you eat animals you have trapped or hunted yourself?
Is it virtue signalling to state you use public transport? a bicycle wherever you can? a car that you built yourself? only cars which are built by your fellow countrymen? In reality, it is a way of saying "everybody else is wrong and I am right. Woke up. ![]() Best Les

All are found on the standard PARF buzzword bingo card.

You guys are so hip. I have no idea what the hell virtue signalling is until not.
Woke is pretty easy. Get it? What's the hell is mansplaining (sp?) |

Virtue Signaling is a fine American tradition. It's akin to Patriotism. AND WHY THE HELL DIDN'T YOU POST THIS IN PARF? Is it that dead over there that you have to come to PPOT to get attention?

The "Woke" people are currently protesting something, while the virtue signalers are shaming you for not wearing a mask !

if enough woke people virtue signal near the Roswell waves in the mid-latitudes, the polar vortex will be affected

Another term I have never understood is "toxic masculinity". It does not even make sense.
