@keithzg Someone makes the "ok" sign with his hand -- Neo-nazi! Sure, it used to be a benign gesture, but we know what it means in 2023...

It's hard to argue with, because how do you prove someone's *not* sending secret messages? People do after all send secret messages sometimes. But often a cigar is just a cigar, and one can (for instance) criticise George Soros without being an antisemite.

@keithzg The "dog-whistling" thing is a common accusation about right-wing politicians, so I'm surprised you're not more aware of it. A US politician refers to "thugs" responsible for crimes -- Racism! We know what he really means... A Christian politician says she supports "families" -- Homophobia! We know what she really means... A group is opposed to "globalism and the WEF" -- Antisemitism!

@Hey_Beth if our civilization is not under physical attack from within come the next 12 hours, I will be surprised and delighted and suspicious all at the same time.

You go to your public park where a dozen brand new benches have been installed. You notice fairly quickly that the decorative “pinwheel” designs in the back of each bench end up forming a swastika at the center of each. What’s your reaction?

Isn't it fascinating how language evolves?

We have moved from...

'The dog ate my homework'

to...

'The dog whistle hid the evidence.'

George Orwell would not be particularly surprised but 23 years of (predominantly) Tory government have definitely left an impression* on the English language.

*of the kind you normally only ever associate with dinosaur killers.

Can’t help but notice that the people that like to talk about the “marketplace of ideas” also have a pretty good sideline in .

He visto este glosario de y, la verdad, necesito una versión patria porque no entiendo por qué la derecha echa espuma por la boca con temas tan inocentes (y tibios) como la Agenda 2030 o la cuidad de los 15 minutos.

Nobody likes being manipulated. So when pundits keep saying WOKE as some kind of code word, what are they trying to make us feel? Remember: are used solely to divide and dehumanize. app.speechifai.tech/s/U-wNCZm_

Just a reminder, “Christian” Right:
That “Jesus” guy you claim to revere was pure WOKENESS in flesh and in spirit. He preached wokeness, practiced, taught wokeness, and lived wokeness.

Oh, and word is that he had BROWN skin. So much for “owning the libs.”

Considering the violent tendencies of the Republican Party, I need .@KellyCraftKY to explain exactly HOW she plans to "fight" for KY coal.

It's a hard sell to convince anyone the Republican Party cares about antisemitism when it has embraced the openly antisemitic (Ye, also known as Kanye West, trump, [who warned Jews that they must “get their act together…before it is too late.”], and McCarthy himself in Nov 22 when he tweeted, “We cannot allow Soros, Steyer, and Bloomberg to BUY this election! Get out and vote Republican….”)

Never a good vibe re Salt & Straw but this nails it. PDX has spent decades NOT addressing the root cause of the unhoused (housing) & dog whistles like S&S is putting out are harmful to the community/solutions. They had a choice to go with “crime” or “housing” & they chose the dog whistle. kgw.com/article/news/local/sal
