Love that in a thread poking fun about how so many people can't help but virtue signal with their wearing of the poppy you jump straight in to virtue signal that you'll be wearing one.

Popular Post NurembergVillan Posted October 21, 2020 Author Moderator Popular Post Share Posted October 21, 2020 As we're still on the first page, I'll make my own position clear. Should we show respect? Yes. Can wearing a poppy be a show of respect? Yes. Can donating without wearing a poppy be respectful? Yes. Can someone still show respect without donating or wearing a poppy? Yes. Should we treat Remembrance Day as a Hallowe'en-style, fancy-dress competition? No. Is shit like the below respectful? No. It's crass. Is highlighting shit like the below the purpose of this thread? Absolutely. Thank you. 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bickster Posted October 21, 2020 Moderator Share Posted October 21, 2020 I'll wager 99.9% of these throbbers don't ever use the word lest in any other context and probably couldn't give you a definition for it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah definitely virtue signalling. I love how it's become the cool opinion to hate anyone that wears a poppy these days. So childish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's really about the people who can't help but virtue signal by wearing ludicrously disrespectful poppy displays. Normal lapel-stationed poppies are spot on. Putting a cardboard Crusader tank on your drive isn't. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post GarethRDR Posted October 21, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 21, 2020 Staple an entire poppy seed baguette to your collar, that's what I do. Then you've got the trifecta of a) largest possible quantity of poppies b) the hipster kudos of "yeah, I'm into poppies before they're even poppies, man" and c) a delicious snack to nibble on throughout the day. 4 1 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarethRDR Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 Plus as it's a baguette, you can claim remembrance for the French soldiers too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
