A DESCENT: P/C; VIRTUE SIGNALING EQUALS A BULLY! How far we have come in the last fifty years or so. I remember some seventy years ago that it was so important to be able to help your neighbor when he needed help. I remember how important it was to treasure honesty, respect, hard work, your parents, your family as a whole. I remember being taught in grade (elementary) school to respect your teachers, your country and your country’s flag, I remember being taught that it was wrong to steal, to damage someone else’s property.
For the majority of our society’s members, those things are still a predominant part of how we live our lives, how we make our choices. However, the majority at this point in time has diminished to an almost negligible percentage, according to our news and polls taken.
Rather than being ruled by the rule of law, we are watching a decline to a rule by mob, perceived moral justice, and a muzzle on thought. We are no longer allowed to think outside the box of “political correctness” and “virtue signaling”. Even though those screaming in the streets decry the acts of physical and psychological bullying, in schools and social media, they condone showing off their superior virtue by bullying everyone they disagree with. We now see many politicians openly prostrating themselves before the loudest, most violent, disruptors. The art of protest has been infiltrated by those who profit from the discord they can create within our society. The adage “United we stand, divided we fall” shouts out the truth that the obverse is just as loud.
