BEWARE the RISE of "VIRTUE SIGNALLING" (too often in a bad way)

LOT OF PEOPLE WITHOUT SINCERE INTENTIONS OR TRUE INNER HOLINESS ARE USING "VIRTUAL SIGNALLING" TO MARGINALIZE GOOD PEOPLE AT THE EXPENSE OF BAD...THESE PEOPLE PICK OPPORTUNE MOMENTS TO "blow their horn" (sometimes literally in the case of car alarms) and often when there is NO opportunity to defend oneself adequately, or for that matter, just by being put on the DEFENSIVE, one is already marginalized. It really is a SLEAZY modus operandi (M.O.) in many cases.., all the more so when the "bad guy" is doing it at the "good guy's" expense...and the good guy often doesn't know what's happening until it is too late. Even sometimes bad cops are doing this at the expense of good citizens... often in the form of legalistic enforcement of the law and issuing a little "sermon" to go along with the legalism...it is the HEIGHT OF HYPOCRISY, which Jesus was preaching against during His time on earth.
