I mean I just watched this explanation of the "sneed seed and feed" dogwhistle and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tUbo0IeWTY4 It doesn't seem to signal more than vague group membership appartenance. I think the thing with dogwhistle is they expire as they diffuse. Like teens drawing swastikas and penises just because it's offensive. This "41" is from more than a century ago. I think with these heirloom dogwhisles, you at least should check how much they really mean it are if they're just shitposters. You don't want the whiteknight stonethrowers to get bogged down by collateral damage, playing into their game and catching all the flak from "them"
