    Lol, it’s not virtue signaling if you’re actually doing something about the issue you claim to care about, and advocate for the purposes of inspiring others to do the same. That’s literally the opposite of virtue signaling, it’s aligning one’s actions with their values, putting their money where their mouth is, and extolling the virtues of doing so to other people if worthwhile.

      Virtue signaling is the act of expressing opinions or stances that align with popular moral values, often through social media, to demonstrate one’s good character.
