    Dog whistle. Ice is the SA and space force will form the more elite SS. Himmler would be proud. And that they chose space force shows how dumb Trump acts through that all.

        A dogwhistle is a more or less megaphone only dogs can hear. So you are right and wrong at the same time. A dog whistle is fucking loud, you just don’t hear that.

          The idea of a dog whistle is as you say only dogs hear it. So in the use case of Nazis letting each other know they are Nazis it’s usually a subtle thing. A phrase or gesture that’s innocent on the face of it, but signals to other Nazis they are Nazis. Like what they tried to do with the OK hand signal.

          Putting up your hand and shouting Heil Hitler isn’t really a dog whistle, as everyone knows at that point you are a Nazi.

            Yeah I tend to agree. But a uniform somewhat looking like the SS uniform is not as obvious to everybody. Its at least plausibly deniable.

              It’s fairly clear that you are a person that moves through your life thinking you are intelligent and that you’re constantly delivering precise repartee in this thread or that, but in actual fact…

                You think I’m a person? I would have thought my opinion entitles me to not being considered human. Maybe throw a little guillotine in as well. ;)

                  Feeling guilty for something, Mr/Mrs “somewhat resembling a nazi uniform”?

                  Garbage take, you got one.

                    Not at all. Trump had an AI generate a space force uniform and given there are two major space franchises it picked star wars. This is a nothing story and you shouldn’t start making more shit up as Trump is already plenty of dumpster fire.

                    I’ll take the liberty of blocking you. Thanks for the nice sub though.
