Virtue Signaling

Espousing a moral position about an issue that matters, without individually doing anything about that issue, usually because the issue is too big for any individual to affect. This is an action scoffed at by any opposition, not realizing that if enough people virtue signal about the same issue, they shift hearts & minds to achieve a critical mass of support to the point that the issue is actually politically addressed.
In the wealthiest nation in the history of the world, there should be next to no poverty.

That's virtue signaling. Why don't you go donate to your neighborhood homeless shelter or something?

The problem's bigger than that, with 40 million in poverty, including over 10 million children, and 200 million living paycheck to paycheck, but it's not a problem that can't be solved.
