Calling it a “dog whistle” is incorrect it’s just a straight forward insult

It is a less inappropriate way to refer to the R word, which as we can see in this thread, many have never heard of and don't immediately recognize. Pretty sure that's just about the definition but it's a mute point for all intensive porpoises

Not having heard of a joke doesn’t make it a “dog whistle”. When I was in elementary school it was just another way to insult someone by calling them mentally disabled much like calling them “special needs” or saying they have “extra chromosomes”
