    I believe in “free speech” but if you leave my platforms you’re virtue signalling.

    Or it could be your social media sites are full of death of the internet AI garbage and bullshit.

    Well then I’m virtue signalling, fuckface. I deleted all the Meta platforms I used, save for my fake white supremacist Facebook account because I use that to tell the employers of Nazis that a Nazi works for them. I am done with my personal accounts though.

      What I love most about the phrase “virtue signaling” is that when people accuse you of it they are themselves virtue signaling.

        I want to agree, but terms like “vice” and “virtue” are subjective. To label what Cuckerberg and his ilk are doing as “virtue” signaling lends credibility to their idea that their vice is virtue. Similar to how the GOP calls themselves the party of “law and order”.

          I don’t think of it in terms of the action being virtuous, but that they are signaling what they think is virtuous.

      I like the term vice signaling, which is what they do all the time. at least I get virtue signaling. but these people are like “hey look how terrible I am” and it’s just baffling.

    It’s weird to realize I would wait in line for like 45 minutes up piss on Zuckerberg’s grave, should the legal opportunity ever arise.

    Just a thought for his next of kin to consider, in due time…

    “vote with your wallet and you can affect a corporation!”

    Also:

    “Fuck you, I’m entitled to your participation (your data) or you’re a virtue signaler leftist baby.”

    I wish I wasn’t an atheist, at least I’d have some comfort in knowing pieces of shit get what they deserve. Instead they just become billionaires and live amazing lives.

    I’m not “virtue signaling” I’m tired. I’m tired of the ads.

    I’m tired of the algorithm intentionally fueling flame wars.

    I’m tired of INESCAPABLE “meme pages,” run by spam bots, that just recycle the same tired shit over and over and over again.

    I’m tired of the THREE different video systems that are inexplicably not interoperable. Reels, Facebook Live, and video Instagram posts all showing up in my timeline but all are part of separate systems. Meanwhile, if I share a link to a YouTube video, it gets suppressed by the almighty algorithm. Because how dare I show my followers/friends something they’d might like to see if it takes their eyeballs away from Facebook.

    Finally, I’m tired of companies selling people like me down the river to score political points with chuds.

      I literally cannot stop getting “support our troops” or other “MAGA” style shit right now. Also random Zionist pages. I’ve never “liked” any of them, I’ve hit “hide posts like this” a million times, nothing fixes it. And if you actually tried to contradict people on those posts, I mean, the ones that get sent to you have 10,000 comments, you’re just shouting into the void.

    Fuck you Zuck. Leaving Facebook has been great for me, it’s not virtue signaling, it’s a quality of life improvement.

    Ass.
