Agreed. But I don't think it's technically virtue signalling to turn down the offer because they listen to InfoWars (unless he goes and tells them that that's why he's turning down the offer). But it definitely is virtue signalling to turn it down for that reason and then tell us about it.

But maybe he wants to vote with his money. Maybe, rather than get a free tat from an InfoWars fan, he wants to pay money to a tat parlor that plays the Young Turks or something. That doesn't make much sense to me, but if you take politics that seriously, more power to ya.
