Using 'cuck' unironically yes, 'virtue signalling' no.

It's absolutely garbage. If you're using it it's because you have no way to argue against someone's point and are just using an ad hominem so you can pat yourself on the back (usually as a good red pill twit).

Bollocks.

You can use it at the same time as countering an argument so stop trying so hard tbh.

In which case it's pointless because you've already explained why the person is full of **** and are using an ad hominem you got from 4Chan or some comment section populated by other red pill twits. Have you ever seen a liberal use virtue signalling? I haven't. Just internet "skeptics" (i.e. self-important alt right fetus sniffers).

I don't care who uses it, the phrase is absolutely bang on. And if a liberal did use it you'd likely be all for it tbh.

And "ad hominem" is usually a deflector term used by people when they're clearly losing an argument. What's your point?

What are you talking about? You've promoted red pill nonsense in the past, you don't believe in any kind of privilege, you post Pepe memes, you have a redneck limey boner for the British flag, blah blah blah. The only reason you like the phrase is because it's used by people whose social and political views align with your own against people whose views do not. It's just self-indulgent echo chamber bull**** for you.

This is the third post in a row you've mentioned the phrase 'red pill'. Have you recently discovered it? Look at Charles and his new toy!

I like the phrase because it accurately describes when people make a point out of voicing opinions specifically to get praise or come across as a good person. It is absolutely spot on and it doesn't matter how much you try to accuse me of being alt right.

And stop making stuff up. I never said I never believed in any kind of privilege. That is a blatant lie.

What privileges do you believe in?

And I don't think you're alt right. I think you're one of those people with alt right leanings who doesn't get what they're sympathizing with (fascists and pseudo-fascists).
