did you participate in the walkout/walk for our lives

[Jefferson Block]

[Ad Bot]

[Adrenaline]

[Boomsticks Alt]

[Boomsticks Alt]

also my friends made signs saying that they support the 2nd amendment it was funny people were getting angry

[SeventhSandwich]

really weird how people who accuse others of 'virtue signaling' have the uncanny ability to peer into someone's mind and figure out whether they actually mean what they're protesting about

[beachbum111111]

I don't know what virtue signalling means

okay

[SeventhSandwich]

okay

Pretending to care about a moralizing social issue to make people think you're virtuous. Am I missing anything in my definition? Since knowing if someone is 'virtue signalling' requires knowing whether their internal motivations are genuine, I can only assume y'all have literal mindreading powers.

Did I say that I knew what they were thinking? Or did I ask PhantOS if he knew their exact position from some one off jokes and stuffposts? Next time actually read my post.

see like I don't know how you expect me to extract all of this information from a one line post that says "hurr you don't know what virtue signaling rly is"

unlike some other people in this thread, I can't actually read minds, which means I need to manually decrypt bumtonese into plaintext english

seventh what the hell are you doing responding to beachbum, the guy has never even attempted to respond to a point you've made.

I don't think that ALL guns should be taken away, but I don't think civilians and police officers need assault rifles and smgs for basic self defense.

you're handicapped

[Jefferson Block]

aren't we all tbh

Your original post criticized me for accusing you of virtue signalling as if I was being hypocritical, then proceeded bring up something that had nothing to do with virtue signalling.

[Outland Predator]

Explain.

I was actually directing my thoughts more towards Nuke since he was the first post on virtue signaling that I read in this thread. For once it wasn't actually directed towards you.

In fairness, you're definitely not a hypocrite when it comes to virtue signaling. That would require actually showing some kind of virtue in your posts, genuine or otherwise lol
