I’m pretty sure @WouldYouLikeAnyToast was being sarcastic
I’m so 2008, you’re so 2000 and late.
Dog whistle literally just means coded language that an ordinary observer might not notice, but can be used to subtly identify other like-minded individuals.
Not all dog whistles are necessarily bad (depending on perspective). I’m an ex-mormon, and one dog whistle is a tapir. Without more information, it is too subtle to really know for certain whether I just like tapirs, or that I’m actually ex-mormon. But eventually, two ex-mormons might see enough signals to finally confide in one another.
A lot of the language you used is innocuous enough, and I didn’t feel like it was at the level @hoodatninja claimed, but it definitely had a “Reddit was becoming too woke” vibe to it, without actually coming out and outright saying it, aka, a dog whistle.
Even before having children, I’ve always had the unfortunate (for others) ability to tune out noise. I definitely don’t assume my kids screaming is not a big deal, I literally don’t realize it’s even happening.
Fortunately, my wife doesn’t have this issue, so she’ll usually get me to intervene quickly enough that we (hopefully) aren’t causing trouble for others.
