What is wrong with signalling virtue?

The emphasis is on vapid. Do you really not understand why people respond negatively to someone interjecting with some hardly-relevant comment just to make themselves look good?

you said that volume =/= value. To me it seems you don’t like when people try to be social and expressive, at least around certain topics.

That was specifically about you saying that you had "given a lot". Just because it's "a lot" doesn't mean it's valuable.

You haven’t elaborated on what racial injustice looks like to you, you’re just gate keeping other people’s definitions.

Actually I haven't done either. Because it's not particularly relevant to my point.

Those other definitions of racial injustice are vapid

I didn't say the definition was vapid. I said the act was vapid. Again, a wall of text about something I didn't say or do.

Please elaborate on who the victims are of that comment you originally responded to.

Again: at best, the people who have to rifle through those inane comments, and at worst, the people who's actual problems are diminished because the signal-to-noise ratio is out of whack.

So your victims are hypothetical, but by your own admission, there are actual victims of systemic racism.

The idea that you're saving people from inanity is very funny. How inane are we being right now?

What a joke

Nice disingenuous framing.

Like I said, it's very simple. The only reason we're still talking about this is because you're obsessed with writing walls of text to shadowbox with.

Lol, and now you're gonna do that debate pervert thing where you must have the last word so you'll just keep repeating that phrase.

Do it. Get that last word. Walk away with something.
