‘i do not participate in the unvirtuous activity. therefore I am superior to those that do’.
people love to virtue signal based on what they do/don’t do, and do/don’t consume.
dating profiles on dating apps are loaded with virtue signal nonsense, because it makes the signaler feel they are ‘above’ other people, or that such signalling will ‘prevent’ the non-virtuous heathens from trying to date them.
I mean, I feel like signaling the things you value to people you are actually going to potentially date is the entire purpose of dating apps? Like if you are just doing it on social media to people at large then sure I agree, but dating apps seems like the perfect place to say what you value in other people.
it’s virtue signalling.
