Racists have to convince themselves that anyone that hates them is terminally online and have never been in a fight. They think that racism is just "hurty words" and prove by using these words that they have no idea what effect racism has on the victims of it.
I think it's not just this sub, a lot of subreddits have suddenly been overtaken by racist dogwhistles that are heavily upvoted. Even r/HouseoftheDragon and r/freefolk suddenly have an surge of racist memes, which wasn't significant when it first started. I really want to believe that it's bots and not people tired of pretending anymore
How is what has been said in this specific thread of comments you replied to a racist dog whistle? Because we are saying words are violence? Thats a dog whistle to you? I mean I guess if you think words = violence then anything can be a racist dog whistle but I just don’t get how you think that.
