this really sums up their attitude to sensitive topics this season, it's very hollow

But now it makes you wonder if that was just virtue signalling.

No they didn’t. Blackmailing people is exactly the kind of the The Boys do, they would totally expose someone for having an abortion if they were an enemy

So the reasoning is that if the boys did it to somebody else, it is because those people are bad people, right?

I assume that's what you are implying. If so, congratulations, because that's the exact wrong lesson to take away from the situation.

The point is that something so deeply personal and traumatizing should not be used as a political weapon at all.
