Golly, I genuinely hope you have fun in your world and I hope it is real one
but it is not one I can reconcile with my own experiences.
Why not?

Right and "Free Palestine" is hardly an innocuous phrase in the context of the ongoing conflict. It has a bold and explicit political meaning. If you are Bibi Netanyahu, this phrase is not anodyne.

Oh, so the phrase can be used in a threatening way. Now we’ve moved from potential dog whistle to potential stochastic terrorism.

If they are communicating with fellow racists, that would be an admission that they are racist.

But it’s not meant to be an admission. That’s why it’s said in the form of a dog whistle.

Two Israeli Embassy staffers shot dead outside D.C.'s Capital Jewish Museum

The American Jewish Committee had been hosting an event at the Capital Jewish Museum aimed at bridge-building in the Middle East and North Africa. Lischinsky and Milgrim had exited the event when they were fatally shot around 9 p.m., according to Yechiel Leiter, Israel’s ambassador to the United States, who shared news of the couple’s pending engagement.​
A man who had been pacing back and forth outside the museum approached a group of four people and opened fire using a handgun, Washington Police Chief Pamela Smith said.​

Who is shooter Elias Rodriguez? Super-woke Chicago socialist was BLM supporter with no criminal history


The suspected pro-Palestinian gunman who shot dead a young Jewish diplomatic couple in Washington DC has been unmasked as left wing radical Elias Rodriguez.​
Rodriguez, 30, from Chicago, is a far-left activist who worked as an 'oral history researcher' on African American communities at educational non-profit TheHistoryMakers, participated in anti-capitalist demonstrations, and has been a member of the party for 'socialism and liberation.'​
In the alleged shooter's work profile, which has been deleted from his former employer's website, it says his role was to 'prepare detailed research outlines and biographies of accomplished leaders in the African American community.'​
'He grabbed a red kaffiyeh out of his pocket and started a 'Free Palestine' chant: 'There's only one solution, Intifada revolution,' Kalin said. 'Thank God he left the gun in the bushes outside.'​
Lord have mercy!

Right, it's supposed to be a message that doesn't look like a message. But 'Free Palestine' is an obvious message, so it is not a dog whistle

If they meant they wanted to stop killing Palestinians they would say, "stop killing", or "no bombs"... But instead, they're asking for something else when they say "free palestine"...

...It's all about creating that Palestinian State, and not losing territory as as the #1 initiative. Ugh! Anyone see a bad case of tunnel vision here?

Correct, the end of Israeli occupation of the occupied territories.

Well, I guess neither side is actually asking for an end to the conflict. Some just want a different outcome.

As you say it is clearly not a dog whistle.
However do you deny evil people are delighted by chants of "free palestine"

I think a lot of people are delighted by more specific chants: Thousands of Israelis join violent, racist march through Jerusalem’s Muslim quarter

'Thousands of Israelis have joined a state-funded march through the Muslim quarter of the Old City in Jerusalem, where large groups chanted racist slogans including “Gaza is ours”, “death to the Arabs” and “may their villages burn”.'

Good on you for saying that, however I don't see how that changes how everyone should acknowledge evil people are delighted by chants of free Palestine.

“Save the children” and “make America great again” are obvious messages, yet they have been called dog-whistles.
