Expressing extreme panic online has become a performance metric for moral superiority. If you aren't screaming that the sky is falling, people assume you don't care.

Hmm, not sure about that! I know a lot of people who care deeply about the genocide in Gaza, erosion of trans rights, and climate change, who don't express ANY panic online.
Are you sure you're not projecting here?
PS: Objecting to evil is not in itself a performance metric for moral superiority.
Often, it's simply a sign of being a decent person.
