trad-signalling

A form of virtue signalling found in online far right circles where one tries to gain as much ideological street cred as possible by connecting themselves to highly traditional and conservative groups/ideas from the past. Typically this takes the form of bragging about being devoutly christian with lots of kids, a stay at home wife, and links to famous historical figures in thier anscestry, or in some cases to posess a particularly pure white anscestry thats even better than anybody elses whiteness.

Trad-signalling often utilizes some pretty overt undertones regarding racial purity and proving whiteness. This often backfires hilariously when prolonged association reveals the individual to be complete hypocrites/frauds who can't actually live up to the ideas and values they supposedly espouse. This phenomenon is particularly common in the many alt-right and racial extremist groups operating on chat services like telegram or discord.
