📚 node [[virtue signaling]]

Virtue Signaling

  • To try to communicate virtue by example.
  • Can be seen as preachy or empty, sometimes it surely is.
  • [[Pro-social]] and [[constructive]], so virtuous.
    • Signaling virtue is pro-social because it communicates ideas for being good and allows them to propragate.
    • Signaling virtue is constructive because it allows good people to find [[others]] and [[cooperate]].
