Internet search engines and the resulting lack of privacy/forgetting also incentivizes more virtue signaling than in the past, because if you’re “called out” or “canceled” due to insufficient virtue signaling, that has much worse consequences than it used to.

I think people who say we should just be braver are not acknowledging the real changes in our social environment.
