The capital letters imply "1488" and the post is 14 words long, both of which are well-known nazi dog whistles.

If both A and H were capitalized and the rest wasn't, maybe. But the way it looks you are just seeing something that isn't there. Reality is heinous enough. No need to make something up.

Always possible, but then again, the concept of dogwhistle is pretty much defined as having the possibility of denial.

So what does the capitalized D represent, in this dog whistle?

[–] vga@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

The number 4, as it is the fourth alphabet. A represents 1, H represents 8 by similar logic.

Well who knows, like is usually the case with dog whistles. It could be rearranged to 1488 or it could be the birth year of Anton Drexler, the guy who started the precursor of the Nazi Party. Or it could be a total coincidence.

Colonialism is nothing to be proud of.

American settlers deserved to be scalped and murdered.
