Those who dismiss moral claims as mere “virtue signaling” betray that they cannot comprehend the concept of virtue: doing the right thing for its own sake, simply because it is the right thing. Because they are morally rudderless, they assume everyone else is too.
When we dismiss the defense of basic principles as “virtue signaling,” dire evils such as bigotry and pedophilia are natural consequences.

prosecuting KKK isn't "virtue signaling". It's law enforcement & being a hero. https://www.google.com/amp/www.newsweek.com/who-doug-jones-kkk-fighting-democrat-attorney-roy-moore-alabama-senate-672255%3famp=1 … @DougRepublicans

Trump calls it "soft on crime." He'd prefer to execute exonerated young black men.

Whenever a far righter says "virtue signaling" it's a confession they aren't virtuous. It's like an odd Joss Whedon thing - the evil ones know they're evil.

Dems and Rep have to find common ground. Government is good...Constitution is good. Reagan was told to say really destructive things about government. Govt is only the problem if we the people let it be the problem. It should be our tool for solutions.
