    I feel like he was probably joking and bragging about how high demand will be, and it is getting responded to like it’s fact, and people are just eating it up.

          How the fuck is this virtue signaling? Do you know what virtue signaling is? Do you think that I’m over here preaching about worker rights then go on and whip slaves in real life?
