    Like 1488 is a dog whistle. Pretty much saying you’re a nazi. But I could be wrong

      Sort of. There’s no context where 1488 is not a nazi saying unless you’re literally using it as a number. But when it first started being used it could potentially qualify as a dog whistle.

      For it to be a dog whistle it would have to sound like an innocent comment on face value unless you were the “dog”
