Welcome to the dank left
Basic rules: *No reposting. Just don't do it.
*Be respectful. Remember the human.
*Don't post content glorifying the right This should be pretty obvious.
*Keep it dank This includes, keeping the content humorous and fresh in multiple, bizarrerie ways Only post content that is humorous and fresh.
*The notion of Leftist unity is not enforced or encouraged. It always ends with one group siliencing others.

Got it, thanks! That was a good example.
It's not really a good example as most of the time a politician who says that it is not hiding the fact that they oppose gun restrictions.
It does show though the problem with the term, which is that plenty of perfectly valid and legitimate opinions can be claimed as 'dog whistles', and so people will throw the accusation around when it's completely unwarranted.
