... The less it is about commemoration and reflection, and the more it is about virtue signaling, the more I can't stand it.

So just wear it as a commemorative and reflective act and ignore the fact that no matter how much signalling you try, the world will still know you're a bit of an aul twat with not a single virtue to your credit.

I guess that Sarje, like the rest of us, can only presume based on how you choose to present yourself on the internet.

I'd like to be able to wear both white and red ones. I'd give more if the aim was to prevent it from happening.

There's nothing that says you have to presume at all
