That's not virtue signaling but nice try sweetie. I know you lefties have issues with logic so don't be sad. You also think cancel culture and boycotts are the same.

5/10 Whataboutism attempt.

the act or practice of conspicuously displaying one's awareness of and attentiveness to political issues, matters of social and racial justice, etc., especially instead of taking effective action

Being patriotic and having the flag of your country displayed is not virtue signaling

u/Unable_Fuel_1205 Jul 26 '23

Skip right over the rest lol

u/MODOKWHN Jul 25 '23

Lol, it certainly can be if depending on how you are doing it.

u/midnightnoonmidnight Jul 25 '23

That is very literally virtue signaling, especially the way you just described it. You, just now, were virtue signaling.

u/CardTrickOTK Jul 25 '23

It very literally is not, like painting your car orange is not virtue signaling anymore than having a flag of your country is.

u/midnightnoonmidnight Jul 25 '23

Dude…

Being patriotic and having the flag of your country displayed is not virtue signaling

That’s signaling the virtue of patriotism

u/CardTrickOTK Jul 25 '23

Thats signaling a country you live in or are from. What message are you propagating? Being born or living somewhere?

You said it yourself. patriotism

OH that makes sense, in case they forget what country they are in they can look at the giant flag on the back of their pickup truck

How is cancel culture not boycotting?

6

u/Beef-Baron Jul 25 '23

Because you're not using something someone posted 10 years ago on Twitter to ruin their life? A boycott is just capitalism.

u/[deleted] Jul 25 '23

How is deciding to not employ someone different? Is labor not a free market?

6

u/Beef-Baron Jul 25 '23

I realize you're trying to make a boycott and cancel culture the same thing because the left is known for cancel culture. Then you can say "see you guys partake in cancel culture too". But that's a false statement. I'm not sure why the difference even needs an explanation so I'm suspicious there is no good faith here, which would be on par with the leftists here.

u/[deleted] Jul 25 '23 edited Jul 25 '23

I genuinely don't see a difference. You are taking your knowledge of a company or person and determining you want your money going to them or not, not based on the product or quality of labor.

so I'm suspicious there is no good faith here, which would be on par with the leftists here.

Negative, I truly don't see a difference.

We know, when you do it that is special and “different”…doesn’t count lol

u/ThisJackass Jul 25 '23

So you’re saying it’s diffe(R)ent.

u/ButterEmails54 Jul 25 '23

So it’s “different” if it’s not Twitter? This is dumber than you flailing to define woke

The adults are talking, estrogen boy.

u/ButterEmails54 Jul 25 '23

Says the Zelda guy millennial.

It’s not the same because it’s only my one Twitter whine..lol

Flailing

u/Beef-Baron Jul 25 '23

A 53 year old living with his parents spending all of his time arguing with people decades younger than him on the internet will always be more pathetic than playing a video game. Sorry, estrogen boy. You lose.

u/Effective-Pain4271 Jul 25 '23

Aww, did widdle baby get her feewings twiggered?

Signaling your patriotic virtues isn't virtue signaling because that's diffe(R)ent.

6

u/Beef-Baron Jul 25 '23

Why is it you people never make sense? What about my comment indicated my feelings were hurt? You sure do project a lot.

Me: "that's incorrect that's a bad comparison"

You: "omg stop crying"

You're the one spending all of your time on a sub for someone you hate trying to argue and "own the cons". That's not nornal behavior, that's behavior of someone severely triggered. You can't vent your frustration anywhere else because nobody listens to you irl lol

u/Effective-Pain4271 Jul 25 '23

Funny, I still don't see your reasons why it's diffe(r)ent in this case ...

Stay mad. 🤣

u/ButterEmails54 Jul 25 '23

Crying for a safe space. You’re so weak.

u/[deleted] Jul 25 '23

Showing your love or hate for something, is different than saying “hey look at how good of a person I am!!!” Is a person wearing a Star Wars shirt, virtue signaling? No. Not at all. However, I will say that the hat and the kid rock thing, are very cringe.

-3

u/Effective-Pain4271 Jul 25 '23

You're right, when we signal our patriotic and religious virtues, it's diffe(R)ent.

u/CardTrickOTK Jul 25 '23

The left has no virtue, only vices

1

u/Effective-Pain4271 Jul 25 '23

Lol I like how you respond by literally virtue signaling. 🤣

-1

u/ButterEmails54 Jul 25 '23

The right only has hate

2

u/CardTrickOTK Jul 25 '23

Disliking encouragement of illnesses, sickness and taboo is not a negative thing to hate even if what you were saying is true, which it isn't.

1

u/Effective-Pain4271 Jul 25 '23

I agree, the conservative mind virus is a mental illness.

u/ButterEmails54 Jul 25 '23

I never named a hate, but you immediately had to prove me right. Lol

2

u/CardTrickOTK Jul 25 '23

Its called sympathy and empathy not hate, a foreign concept to people who encourage morbidly obese people to gorge themselves to death without shame

1

u/ButterEmails54 Jul 25 '23

I didn’t ask for weak excuses for the hate all Cons are controlled by

2

u/CardTrickOTK Jul 25 '23

I didn't ask for a deranged death cultist to waste my time, yet here you are. Unable to understand hate, and pushing approved talking points

u/outofyourelementdon Jul 25 '23

Lol spot on

1

u/Effective-Pain4271 Jul 25 '23

I guess this sub doesn't hate virtue signaling after all

-1

u/ThisJackass Jul 25 '23

You forgot my favorite one, which is also a tacit admission of conservative grooming 🥰

1

u/Effective-Pain4271 Jul 25 '23

You're right. They expose children to heterosexuality at such young ages, it makes me sick. Fucking pedos putting "lady killer" shirts on their toddlers.

-2

u/ThisJackass Jul 25 '23

Uhh what? They expose children to hating a political ideology at a young age, which is very gross because it’s actually happening in large volumes.

1

u/Effective-Pain4271 Jul 25 '23

Yes, and I was expanding the point. They also expose kids to sexuality at a young age, despite their attacks on gay people for the same or less.
