So, what does "virtue signal" mean to you, and why should we care that you're describing someone with it? I.e., why is it "bad?"

I'm working off the definition I found on wikipedia:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtue_signalling

> In recent years, the term has been more commonly used within groups to criticize those who are seen to value the expression of virtue over action.
