    So a white supremacists website created a dog whistle, and now those same white supremacists use it regularly? That doesn’t sound perfectly innocent, especially not when PJW is the one flashing it and making sure we all know there’s a far-right connotation.

      So we’re just going to let one fringe group ruin a decades old gesture? We’re going to give crackpots that kind of power?

      Fuck that.

        The power they have comes in the form of folks like you defending the dog whistle as innocent while they use it as a virtue signal for hate.

            You think that White Supremacy is a fringe movement that can be defeated through inaction?
