      Haha I see what you’re referring to but what would be different in the meme in the case that it wasn’t a dog whistle? I feel like the extrapolation is purely in your head

        Literally look at the highest voted comment in this thread. Comparing a yamurlke to the smallest beanie playing into the idea that Jewish people control the world.

          That post extrapolated a possible new tangentsl meaning by taking the concept based on actual common trends of wearing beanies to an extreme by applying it to different a head covering and was obviously a joke. That was fun!

          You inserted meaning that wasn’t there by speculating that the ‘real’ joke was something not even pictured or relevant to twist the joke into something negative. While there is a ton of shitty memes out there this is not one of them.

              People like well crafted jokes.

              The joke was taking a premise about one thing and exaggerating it to mean something it didn’t, which made it clear that it was mocking the jews rule the world thing.

          I’m Jewish and that comment was funny, lighten up there’s no indication that’s what it was
