I'm Oppressed So Buy My Shitty Products

Yes, I'm honest about what I am doing when I call out virtue signalling. Deal with it, or don't.
The fact there was no virtue signalling on JH's part is what makes your position even more ridiculous. No one here is going to stop you from playing the clown.
I didn't say JH was virtue signalling. He was calling out virtue signalling, but attempting to cloak his calling out.
As a reminder, anything a liberal does, including wearing a mask, is considered "virtue signaling". I was calling out actual virtue signaling and the case that alt-right virtue signaling referees somehow managed to miss.

Yes, I know you think the left never virtue signals. The left's behaviour is, after all, beyond reproach at all times and at all places, as is their value system. But I corrected laughing dog's non sequitur comment.
 
...the right points out the virtue signalling of the left.

I can't speak for anyone else's behaviour, but when I call out somebody's virtue-signalling, I make it clear that I have noticed it and I am calling it out

Yes, I'm honest about what I am doing when I call out virtue signalling

So, biased, bad faith double-standard bullshit.

I repeat, you are here, in the thread about Pillow Fucker, a virtue signaller of the highest calibre. You are now at least being honest that you are running interference rather than discussing the plain truth of what this fuck is doing as is the actual thread topic.

Congratulations, you have admitted to shitting on the floor to support your conservative pals.

First of all, whether I am a virtue signaller is irrelevant. I said I was honest about what I was doing when I called virtue signalling out.

Second, what virtue do you think I am signalling by calling JH out? Or do you think that being frank when calling out virtue signallers is a virtue, and my mentioning that is therefore a virtue signal?

You are now at least being honest that you are running interference rather than discussing the plain truth of what this fuck is doing as is the actual thread topic.
I still don't know what running interference is but it sounds like you are endorsing whataboutism.
 
And yet, here you are in a thread about someone whom you claim you don't give a shit about.
I opened the thread to see what it was about. I read a few posts. I read JH's post and thought 'if a non-leftist had made a similar post about a left-leaning figure, an army of leftists on this board would have called him out'. And since there is no such army of non-leftists, I did it.

And now, despite the fact that people like Jarhyn bemoan that we should be talking about MyPillow (why? has anyone here defended him or gives a shit?), the rest of the thread has been dedicated to attacking me, including Jarhyn's posts.

We are exactly attacking the kneejerk reaction, to call out 'leftists' for saying the truth about what someone is doing, shitting on the floor and running political interference.

I keep explaining ways you could do something else, besides running interference for Pillow Fucker.

The fact is, 'leftists' here can and do call out people for virtue signalling.

We call out the Democrats all the fucking time for only proposing and forwarding legislation only and exactly when they know it will fail. And in other situations too.

I didn't attack JH for calling out MyPillow's virtue signalling. I called JH out for calling MP out but pretending he wasn't.
 
May I remind you all of Metaphor's first post in this thread?

Do you spend a lot of time hatewatching youtube?

Virtue signalling at its finest.
I'm quite convinced you don't know what virtue signalling or hatewatching or mockery is.
"Ooh, hatewatching. That's bad. I would never do that!"

Yeah, it's virtue signalling.
I did not say hatewatching was bad in some moral sense.

Years ago, I used to hateread a site called feministing (I couldn't hateread it now, it's long defunct). Now, I don't think what I was doing was morally wrong (reading things isn't morally wrong), but deliberately working myself into a frothing frenzy of rage at how ridiculously stupid and hateful the arguments were on that site didn't really help me or anyone. So I stopped deliberately seeking it out.

There's another trap that I do fall into too often, responding to click-baity headlines (which are now rife across news media). In fact, I am trying to reduce my tendency to do that as well.
 
I called JH out for calling MP out
And there it is.
Dishonest editing. Stop it.

The sentence I wrote is:
I called JH out for calling MP out but pretending he wasn't.
Nothing after your "but" means anything. I do not accept that you have mind reading powers so as to justify that he was pretending to not know, nor that he had any intent to make the allusion that he was not calling the guy out, and in any case, you are here calling JH out rather than discussing the "Pillow Fucker who Virtue Signals while Begging for Handouts".

I don't give a fuck what you 'accept'. You do not get to dishonestly edit my words to imply something I did not say. You just don't.

The absolute fucking state of your rage, by the way. You've spent more words attacking me personally on this thread than discussing MyPillow guy (again, what is there to discuss?)

And somehow I still spent more words discussing it than you did.

I get to point out exactly the part of your words that I feel matter. Nothing after "but" matters.

At it's very core your judgement as to why you felt it was appropriate to call out someone's call-out does not matter. You shaped it entirely as a distraction from the topic, and then go on to virtue signal and preen over your stinking turd, in the middle of the floor rather than just saying "I'm sorry" and stopping or even discussing the topic.

There is, here, to discuss yet another example of virtue signalling while devoid of all virtue, a clear example of the Trumpian get, a huckster worthy of being put in a mental ward for to figure out how to direct him away from such abject shittiness, a point on a line of many points of such indivuduals tied to that trainwreck.

But you don't want to talk about that. You apparently don't want to talk about it but rather about Jimmy Higgins. So why are you here?

You can read my mind now? But I can't read JH's. Okay. I accept a world where some people are mind readers. I mean, you're a wizard after all!

In the thread? Because you keep responding to my posts, and dishonestly editing them, and getting into a rage about how there aren't enough people 'discussing' MyPillow, even though there's nothing to discuss, and if there were something to discuss, it would be being discussed.

You’ve done a great job deflecting the focus from the OP subject (a fellow “ conservative”) and onto you and your mind-reading driven derail.

Why not address the OP and enlighten everyone with your insight? It would be a change of pace, and possibly more entertaining than your whinging about the deserved attention your posts have caused.

So, let me level with you: this is one of the ways I pass the time on a long commute. I have fed the beast in me capable of edged discourse mighitly over the last decade, and you often provide the nourishment to grow it, metaphorically speaking.

There is nothing dishonest about making the core statement without your lame excuses tacked on derived from nothing but your mind reading powers that you keep claiming don't exist.

Actually, JH did that. JH pointedly made a comment about the lack of people calling out MyPillow's virtue signalling. JH's very first comment wasn't even about MyPillow, but his impression of the non-leftists on the board.
