Virtue Signaling

“Virtue signaling is a term used to describe the act of expressing opinions or sentiments in a way that is intended to demonstrate one’s good character or moral correctness on social or political issues. Virtue signaling typically involves making statements or taking actions that are visible to others, often to gain social approval or to align oneself with a particular group. It can be seen as a way for individuals to showcase their values and beliefs, often implying a sense of moral superiority over those who do not share the same views. Critics argue that virtue signaling can be superficial, as it may prioritize appearance over genuine commitment to a cause. Some believe it can lead to performative activism, where the focus is more on gaining social capital than effecting real change.” (GPT-4o)

The Dem political activists are indoctrinated by virtue signaling, today’s acceptable and preferred form of hypocrisy. However, it has long been evidenced in others. Jesus of Nazareth best identified its practice around 30 AD. His detractors and oppressors were fraudulent teachers and leaders who sought public approval and moral superiority, but were inwardly corrupt and refused to practice what they preached.  Jesus said, “Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You give a tenth of your spices—mint, dill and cumin. But you have neglected the more important matters of the law—justice, mercy and faithfulness. You should have practiced the latter, without neglecting the former.” (Matthew 23:23) Today’s hypocrites virtue signal racial bigotry and discrimination based on race, pretending to be sympathetic and superior with no demonstration of actual justice or mercy. 

The hypocrisy manifests in organized funded “protests” that are actually destructive, violent, criminal riots in support of actual criminals for political gain. “Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You clean the outside of the cup and dish, but inside they are full of greed and self-indulgence… In the same way, on the outside you appear to people as righteous but on the inside you are full of hypocrisy and wickedness… And you say, ‘If we had lived in the days of our ancestors, we would not have taken part with them in shedding the blood of the prophets.’ So you testify against yourselves that you are the descendants of those who murdered the prophets.” (Matthew 23:25, 28, 30-31) 

Today’s virtue signal denies any real virtue and promotes sexual perversion, gender dystopia, sex trafficking, irreversible mutilation of children, killing unborn babies and persecuting any who try to protect the weakest members of society and demonstrate true virtue. Woe to you, Virtue Signalers.
