In the past year or two, it seems like this has become a favored way to easily dismiss someones moral opinion and is being appended to my list of things to help me disregard the opinion of the person calling out 'virtue signaling'.
I'll grant that it's overused, but vehemently defending a morally justifiable opinion (i.e. "I hate shkreli bcuz daraprim and he h8's aidz patients, hes the most hated man in america becuz I read a news article titled "the most hated man in america") that's also speculative and based entirely on media hype with no reliable sources...I'm not sure what else to call it. Ignorance? Stupidity? Disinformation?
