What I hate about virtue signaling is the fact that it’s easy to do and costs the speaker nothing, at least not at first, but payment is required. Those who foot the bill are usually those who put the virtue signaler in a position to act on the charade, but that’s the “at best” aspect. At worst, innocent people are often those who suffer the most.
Case in point, my colleague Rusty Weiss reported on the recent reaction from Australians to the ISIS-inspired shooting that happened in Sydney. Brace your jaw so it doesn’t smash into the floor after it cracks the sound barrier on the way down:

It’s hard to believe someone could be that stupid, suggesting the real motive is to deceive.
It’s more nefarious than that.
it’s not just simply being clueless or stupid.
This is outright, deliberate gaslighting.... aka lying.
Islam has only been at a constant state of war for 1400 years, demands the murder of Jews, and preaches non stop violence against infidels, but hey. Violent Islam has nothing to do with islam
Bkmk
Lefties do, as well as a majority of stupidcons. I have a close relative who gets all his news from the Los Angeles Times and Yahoo News. An otherwise intelligent man, he parrots the rat talking points. So now he hates Trump because "Trump deported a U.S. citizen."
