Description

It is easy to write other people off when you think they are just virtue signaling, grandstanding, or trolling. But is it good that we tend to more and more judge people with those categories and break off discussion as a result? In⁠"Moral Grandstanding and the Norms of Moral Discourse"⁠ A..K. Flowerree and Mark Satta argue that it is often bad or even morally wrong and unjust. I discuss this and other topics related to virtue signaling with Heather Battaly (Connecticut)
