To signal that you are willing to eat cake. To signal that you are willing to signal as though you think about eating cake using their system of categories, and to signal that you are willing to signal as though you are afraid of being categorized as bad by their system of categories for not being willing to signal as though you eat cake using their system of categories. It's complicated. It's about cake, subordination, cake-like subordination, and subordination to cakes. It's not about pie.
