I'm not sure of the correlation but I'm reminded of the quiet rebellion through Nazi-occupied slavic states (Poland, the Czech Republic, etc.) to hat-tip Jews whenever they were encountered in the street, which specifically pissed off the German garrisons, especially the SS.
It's the same as owning the libs albeit directed towards the far-right.
In the 20th century, false flagging (in this case, dressing using cultural indicators of a group you're not) was used to call out propensity for calling out black or latin persons.
An opposite effect came with a young black artist saved his pennies to get a Harrod's belt, and police arrested and booked him for stealing it until proven otherwise.
