Hmmm. Dog whistle or done for emphasis not knowing it’s a dog whistle?

You're talking about the triple parentheses, right? I was also wondering that. If it is a dogwhistle, what does it mean? "The Jews are... ???" Supporting the DPRK???

Oh yeah, I know it means "the Jews", I'm just not sure what the Jews are meant to be doing in this context. It's a very strange context to use this (((dogwhistle))).

Before I knew about it, I used it as like a tonal suggestion, to imply saying it Uber my breath or whispering to the person kindly, so that’s how I take it, but find it useful to share that it’s a dogwhistle to inform others who may be unaware as I was.
