This is now beyond #Biden's and #Schumer's #virtueSignaling, spinelessness, and wobbly knees.

#Democratic LEADERS are now supporting #fascism full bore. #ChuckSchumer, #AdamSchiff, #JohnFetterman — whole lot now serving the opposition, not their constituents.

It's disingenuous to shift blame from fascist-adjacent Democratic leaders to the Democratic electorate because that sounds exactly like #Kremlin propaganda

I paid attention, and complained about #Biden's #virtueSignaling in choosing #Garland ever since. You obviously didn't read reports of how Biden knee-capped Garland, despite link above 🙄

#US made a mistake letting #Nixon go. Biden repeated by saying he preferred #unity over #investigation.

Don't even get me started on how they did a #prettyPlease in the #classifiedDocuments case, and once they had an airtight case, went to #Florida instead of #DC, where the crime was committed

You seem to be going around in circles — castigating me for blaming the electorate, when I didn't, while you yourself blame the electorate, even though it is the #other segment.

The electorate put its faith in #Democratic leaders, who then failed to keep us safe from foreign predators even when they knew what was happening — They certainly knew more than we did.

#Biden had bipartisan support after #Jan6, but he wasted that opportunity #virtueSignaling.

>> They were not doing what they should've been doing BEFORE, and they're not doing it NOW, election results notwithstanding.

#Obama knew about #Trump's #Russia problems before any of us did, but #MichelleObama led with "When They Go Low, We Go High" BS. That was not middle school where we teach kids not to snitch on each other. This was the nation's survival at stake.

I know you don't even want me to get started on #Biden's #virtueSignaling and his subsequent AG appointment 🙂

Yes, and I agree with you but only up to a point.

I am saying that sometimes #Democrats are their #ownWorstEnemy.

In the real world, it is #survivalOfTheFittest, not the crudest, meanest, or most virtuous.

Democrats seem unable to #AcknowledgeTheProblem that our survival is at stake. Moral absolutism is not going to help us survive.

Instead of #virtueSignaling, censuring and forcing party members to resign, we need to #GoBallistic and fight like out survival depends on that.

>> I can’t believe how many of you still think “the #Democrats” can or will do jack about #Trump

If TWO #Democratic presidents (#Obama and #Biden) — both of whom knew about Trump's #Russia connections — did nothing to save us, there is really nothing left that Democrats as a political party have to offer us.

In the existential struggle between the two parties, Democrats chose #virtueSignaling on their way to oblivion, and now, EVERYONE will have to fend for themselves, laws be damned

@osnews
Sudden realization.

Everyone who is seeing the misnaming on the Gulf of Mexico (it does not show for me) should go put in a bug report right now to #GoogleMaps complaining that the #GulfOfMexico has the wrong name. Deny the #fascist movement their power, act incredulous, assert reality.

#Resist. #DoNotCapitulate.

Make it clear that the people who care about this weird #VirtueSignaling are the people who aren't going along with it.

Wie waer's @jesuisatire wenn du mich aus deinen Windmühlenschlachten heraushältst?
Du scheinst deine eigenen Erkenntnisse von noch vor der COVID-Zeit mal wieder völlig außer acht zu lassen:

.. dumm geboren und nix dazu gelernt wa?

@tierranietos wird sich wenn überhaupt mit denen beschäftigen die selber den Weg dorthin finden. Die Selfie-facebook Egomanen kümmern sich um sich und ihre eigenen Probleme, ihr Fatalismus ist nur #virtueSignaling.

Okay, hear me out...

With the corporations like Meta, Threads, Amazon, Xitter (the Shirtbird site, i.e. Twitter), etc. crapping all over the LGBTQ+ folks, scrapping their DEI programs, allowing hate on their platforms, I'm forced to come to this conclusion:

Whatever programs they previously had were not based on honest beliefs. They were just going through the motions because they believed that it made money. Thus, they were virtue signaling for the sake of money.

I sure plan to remember this, when the wind shifts again, and they decide that reinstating some of those programs is in their best interest.

#virtueSignaling is ending
It's as if big corporations were never dependable allies to begin with.

2024 - Twitter doesn't moderate any longer
- Zoom, Google, Meta and Microsoft stop or reduce their DEI
2025
Jan 6 - McDonald's stops several diversity practices
Jan 7 - Meta stops fact checkers
Jan 9 - Elon talks with German right win party leader
- BlackRock, Citigroup, Bank of America, Wells Fargo and Goldman Sachs are exiting climate group (Net-Zero Banking Alliance)

>> [Translation of @homohortus] US involvement in Syria raises many questions. By supporting #Erdogan and arming regimes like #SaudiArabia and #Egypt, US is reinforcing a complex geopolitical dynamic. The alliance with #HTS against #Assad may be a chess game in which the #Kurds are the main victims. Do US interests really align with #Turkey’s or is this a blow against #Russia?

In global politics, there are no permanent enemies and no permanent allies. Also #VirtueSignaling is futile

>> What dirt does #Trump have on Fetterman?

"That #Fetterman even suggests that #Biden weaponized the judiciary against #Trump cements my belief that…"

Oh, don't even bother to finish that sentence.

All that #virtueSignaling was for naught, as the carefully curated image that both Biden and #Garland cultivated in the last ~4 years are crushed and trampled on by a member of the President's own party.

Would hurt less if Biden actually went after Trump instead of going easy 😞

>> #VirtueSignaling stops at home.

To clarify, #JoeBiden's decision to pardon #HunterBiden is correct.

Also on the list should be preemptive pardons for #KamalaHarris, #TimWalz, #LizCheney, and members of the #Jan6Committee, at the very least.

Not appointing an aggressive AG and affording #DOJ full power to go after the insurrectionists and the masterminds behind the insurrection will remain the single biggest failure of #Biden, no matter his other accomplishments.
