Not sure what you mean by the term, but it sounds like a pejorative way of suggesting that people express views in order to be understand by others as being the sort of person who expresses such views, rather than because they hold them sincerely.

Pro Tip: Check out the Wikipedia entry. It will give you a single line quote that allows you to assert that this term is used by right-wingers. You can then call me a right winger. (Figured I'd save you some time and Ctrl+F scanning.)
