Virtue signaling 

Virtue signaling is a word angry Proud Boy wannabes use to shame anyone who mentions Black Lives Matter.
"Black lives matter!"
"You're virtue signaling so people think you're a good person."
"No, Black lives really do matter. You just want me to stop talking about this. I won't, and if want to talk about how good a person I am on social media, I'll do that, too."

Traffic-control devices dat light up all weird --- i.e., randomly flash and/or have several conflicting colors/symbols invalidly illuminate at once --- may be malfunctioning thus because da people operating/maintaining said contraptions have "had a few too many" in da way of screwdrivers and highballs.
A bartender can be equally confused/frustrated as a bewildered motorist at a malfunctioning traffic-light if a patron at his pub sends mixed signals --- i.e., voices conflicting instructions on how he wants his drink prepared --- as well.

Virtue Signaling 

A term used by fascists who believe they're of a higher moral standing when someone makes a factual statement.
Jimbo: He should have just complied.
Bob: So you believe govt employees should be able to tell you what to do and punish you if you dont comply?
Jimbo: Not a chance in hell. I will not comply to the govt. I'll be damned if the govt tells me what to do.
Bob: You do know law enforcement is the govt. Buddy, that's virtue signaling.

Virtue Signaling 

To put on airs of being concerned about a social issue solely with the intent of flaunting your morals to the world.
Putting "BLM" in your Twitter bio does nothing to help people actually affected by such issues. It is mere virtue signaling.

Vice Signaling 

Vice-signaling is about being rude to the right persons, to the right extent, at the right time, with the right motive, and in the right way

Opposite — parading one’s moral superiority like taking the opportunity to demonstrate one’s decency outwardly. Example driving a Prius or wearing a mast during a pandemic.
Think of the toga party scene in Animal House. A young man with a guitar is wooing some girls with folk pap (“I gave my love a cherry that had no stone…”). Along comes John Belushi, who gives a little listen before grabbing the guitar and smashing it. The singer was virtue-signaling; Belushi was vice signaling
