Re: Virtue-signalling tip
...and how was my Lord's sacrifice summed up by that? ...just cos i'm bored
Re: Virtue-signalling tip
fk social media - its a virus that has ruined and "closed down" many a good forum, which the net used to host (now replaced with facefk/twits). i point a finger to the cheapass web hosters to! (all comments sections of The Press wedsites - off sourced (so free for them) - to facefk/twits.
I rem the net before facefuk, when we had 100's/1000's for forums (like this one - when will this one close to be hosted on facefk? - like the many others i used to be members of years ago), now the net is a wasteland of social media hosts (Twit/insta and facefuc).........made up of ego centric social justice virtue signalling asshats.
yep ;-(
you may not agree with the guy's views/or hate socialism (I'm a liberal myself - not a socialist - but like Bernie because he is genuine - even if he have views i disagree with).
Same reason i like Ben Sasse (way more conservative than me - but honest and qenuine "believer" in his views).
I respect them both.
You should re-evaluate your views on Bernie Sir. (not about agreeing with him, about calling him out as a phony).
yep.
its known by a word: Hypocrisy.

true. sadly.Walker wrote: ↑Sat Dec 14, 2019 7:27 pm No need to give up your stuff to virtue signal. The important thing is to demonize others who say they will not give up their stuff. Call them unwoke deniers, and you need not even specify what they deny. In the meantime you can keep your stuff. This proven template already exists in many applications.
Walker wrote: ↑Sat Dec 14, 2019 7:27 pm For instance, climate virtue signalers need not actually do anything, need not actually give up their car-driving, plane-flying, energy-consuming lifestyles. To virtue signal they only need to use words to demonize those who say there is no need to give up these things.
yep ;-(
I know you are good character, so be nice to Bernie. He's older than the hills, and his political record has been then same since the 60's - a socialist. He is not a phony, nor a former Republican turned Socialist (and phony?) like Liz.

yep, i guess we can all call Christian TV Evangalist Ted Haggard as a Virtue Signaler, spitting hate towards gays for 20 yrs..............all the while buggering men!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Virtue-signalling is by its own label narcissistic!vegetariantaxidermy wrote: ↑Sun Dec 15, 2019 12:41 am'Virtue-signalling' is shallow and narcissistic by definition. If they had actually helped it wouldn't be virtue-signalling.surreptitious57 wrote: ↑Sat Dec 14, 2019 11:47 pm Sometimes people do actually help but virtue signalling just for the sake of it is both narcissistic and superfluous
I hope someone does eventually help that disabled man since he does not deserve to be let down like that at all
Interesting aside is that the man has nearly 200 Facebook 'friends'.
Virtue is fine - one of the 7? non-sins, akin to Humility.
So Virtue-Humility would be great (do some good to anyone that may need help - tell no one of your good deed and move on).

I rem as a kid watching Ghandi (the 80's movie) in the theater and as a 14 yr old being blown away at the scene where Ghandi is on hungerstrike and a thug Hindu sees him and tells him about the Muslim man and child he killed and asks Ghandi what he can do to make amends via "the Gods".
Ghandi tells him to find an orphan kid and raise him Muslim!
the Hindu guy's eyes bulge out! - "you ask too much" (but only if you assume too little for redemption! - i.e. only if you assume hypocrisy and "virtue signalling" is enough..........)
in otherwords the easy way out, "let me find some kid and raise him up in my Faith" and not as a Muslim who i hate and killed for being)
-------
that may have been apocriphal(knowing Ghandi was a Hindu) - and included for artistic license for the movie.
or maybe not?
Honestly speaking i do not know the story of Ghandi enough to know either way. maybe the movie was honest in this particualar story?
anyone here that knows Ghandi moreso than myself, please reply so i may learn.

no, there is Truth - Conservativism or Liberalism. each with objective political perspectives and platforms.
then there are hypocrites (are you now one of the converted - mind removed and replaced with a hypocritical "bot" ant mind?
tRump violated our United States Constitution via his self gain (Emolulments - Mara Largo (as a tax payer I do not like paying for his self gain here (fine for the usual security - but your Chump's taxpayer bill is order of magintude more than that (tRump make Grant look like a pennyless saint in comparison - and not happy that House of Rep did not include your King's abuse of our Emoluments clause in the MANY obuses of power your King has done (but understand - "keep it simple" so leave the emoluments out of it.
no virtue signaling needed when your King asked Ukraine to investigate his cheif 2020 political rival for pres (rather than asking our FBI to do so).

snipped the rest of your shit, i now know you are full bore Bot - cultist (give Jim Jones my regards Bubba).
Trump Democrat before Repulican.
prochoice before prolife............etc.
you are being played dipshit.
serve Hit.........er..............Stal.........er.......Milo..........er................Pol..............er............. Rump as a Bot while you destroy our US Constitution.
I wash my hand of you. i now know you choose Rump over our Constitution, and so view you as a threat to the Rule of Law and the America i love.

I forgot that Donald Trump is the be all and end all of human civilisation as we know it. He is everything to everyone. We cannot have a thought without 'the Donald' being the focus of it. Trump is everything.

Odd that you would want to exclude one of the most egregious virtue-signaling deceptions in existence, i.e., the baseless, consensus demonization of Donald J. Trump, POTUS, a sociological movement that eclipses the delusion of the Tulip craze. MeThinks your entreaty and insistence on a rubbish theme in place of a more wide-ranging, impactful application of the virtue-signaling principle is a high hope to prevent what befell A Christian Is … thread, and if this wee bit of truth spells the demise of glorious, then apologies.vegetariantaxidermy wrote: ↑Sat Dec 14, 2019 10:42 pm Walker: Kindly do not use my glorious thread to push your own political agenda.

or Cultists.
once you drink the koolaid, one is lost to thier own delusion/s.
Re: Virtue-signalling tip
if you know history, you know that Christianity was a cult.
though, to be fair, we have had 2000 yrs since that cult, and most Christian today are not cultists (though a few are sadly).
just sayin, "lets be fair" here.
...........
all religions started out as cults, including Islam and Judiasm when they started out.................
just sayin here.
and ya there are cultist Muslims and Jews today (thankully most are not - and are like most Christians - not cultists (though would welcome more non-cultist christian/jews/muslims/hindus/etc...........)

as an Athiest not a war with your God nor the Muslim/Judiac one, but a person that has read all three works to a degree and value some therein that was written.
clarify your point so we may discuss.

Re: Virtue-signalling tip
Ostensibly and then only if it's artful as opposed to childishly irrelevant, however it is still self-serving. In other words, you have your witless sarcastics, you have one dimensional sarcastics, and then you have your masters of wit who are artful and who rarely if ever combine it with characteristic thuggary. Similarly, a child's crude crayon drawing is not art, although claiming a climate change theme would protect it as virtue signaling art.
