You do it only when you need to derive your virtue from others, because you don't have any of your own.

That and they are quickly altering the nature of virtue to personal/political beliefs that require you to do nothing, just vote a certain way. Likely driven by media firms, PR (propaganda) firms and politic think tanks in order to combat Trump.

Virtue is what you do, and it is a habit, not a sudden spurt of manic effort.

At one time, virtue was in regards to DOING the right things and LIVING a life of personal integrity. Now, to a liberal, it means SAYING the right things, THINKING the right thoughts and VOTING the right ways. A liberal can live her life in blatant diametric opposition to her purported ideals, but that's ok because they're all hypocrites. Accusing a liberal of hypocrisy is like pouring water on a duck - it just rolls right off.

Liberal views are also like women's fashions - they will vary from one week to the next. It's not a question of a liberal changing her mind but her going along with what the Hive stands for at given moment.
