He's right. They don't care about what's on X as long as there isn't negative publicity. It has nothing to do with being right-wing. If anything, it's quite left-wing to believe that companies only care about the baseline.
"virtue signaling" is a right wing term by which statements of principle are dismissed.
That's rubbish. It has nothing to do with right wing. Google, Apple, Coca Cola, Microsoft, and many other large companies have been accused of virtue signaling - rightfully so. They pretend to care about social issues for 2 seconds and then go right back to business once the news cycle is over. Is that a right-wing thing to do?
uhuh...
