    Smell that? That’s the smell of virtue signaling. Just buy shit and drop the hypocrisy. At least the other guys is being honest.

      “I buy from companies who most closely match my ethics” is virtue signaling, now?

      We live in a capitalist society, and voting with our wallet is the only vote we get. Not everyone can afford to vote, but why wouldn’t you if you could?

      If this is virtue signaling, it’s the most subtle milquetoast virtue signaling ever.

        That’s well said. And good on you for sticking to your guns. You are 100% right. I think if you can afford to avoid these companies you should.
