    Is this poll make believe like the wage gap or are you going to actually create one?

    Edit: I see you made it now, is the question 'Do friend's family members ever try to Virtue Signal to you?

    Wish i need what it means.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,896 ✭✭✭✭Spook_ie


    Is this to do with tracker mortgages, which I still don't understand.

    The day my friends start virtue signalling is the day our friendship ends.

    Doesn't the phrase imply that it's all fake? My friends are genuinely nice people so therefore they don't VS, they just live their normal lives

    All of my friends in real life are social justice warriors op. This is actual footage of me calling in for them...



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,252 ✭✭✭FTA69


    What a load of boring nonsense.

    1) We’ve heard this a million times on this site.
    2) You haven’t even made a point.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,977 ✭✭✭Greyfox


    that would be an ecumenical matter

    Figured it was some SJW thing( which I'm honestly fed up with)
    I should watch that Warriors movie, on my must watch since forever.
    Next video was an interview with the programmer of Lotus Esprit Turbo Challenge which I'm listening to now, excellent game from way back

    Ignoring idiots who comment "far right" because they don't even know what it means

    They do it all the time to me.
    Sometimes, I often let it slide.

    What about that Trump - isn't he an awful fellow! It's because of him that children are starving in Africa. And he'll kill us all with a nuclear bomb.

    I'm a good person. I'm a good person. I'm a good person. Get the message. I'm a good person, see.

    You mean those people with ‘I stand with nurses’ on their FB profile pic? Newsflash, all: we honestly don’t care who you stand with!

    Virtue Signalling has several meanings e.g. In Evolutionary Biology and Contract Theory. Please explain what type of thing you have in mind.


    !Did you vote yourself?

    Let's be honest, outside of people who wallow in fringe American political online communities, Irish people don't use terms like virtue signalling, cultural marxism, SJWs' and the rest.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,715 ✭✭✭blackbox


    You have omitted the Atari Jaguar option from the poll.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,211 ✭✭✭✭ILoveYourVibes


    One does. She's female. She has low self esteem though.


  • Posts: 3,689 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    I take the Atari Jaguar option for myself.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,211 ✭✭✭✭ILoveYourVibes


    Actually my mother virtue signals to me all the time.

    That female friend I mentioned.

    One guy friend.


    And yeah some other friends too.

    Never thought about it before.

    I don't know why my mom does but she really does DAILY!

    Accusing someone of virtue signaling is the laziest cop out of a decent debate.

    BUT do your family and friends do it to you in private?

    I have friends who do it ..never in debate though. I just go ..fair play to you. You are great etc.

    Not really, no. I've an uncle who makes incredible fart noises with his armpit, if that's any good to you?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,736 ✭✭✭Irish Guitarist


    My cousin puked in my mothers umbrella a couple of weeks ago. Does that count as virtue signalling?
