People who complain about "virtue signaling" are just projecting onto others their own inability to even conceive of having any concerns that don't affect them directly. So to them, everyone else must be faking it.
The ironic thing about people who complain about "virtue signalling" is that they themselves are usually guilty of "I'm a piece of shit signalling".

99.99% of the time when somone is accused of "virtue signaling" they're just doing something nice. The accuser can't fathom doing something nice withing trying to get something for themselves out of it.

Signaling in the sense of the original use of the term did not indicate misleading. A signal known to be hard to fake is an effective one.
