Not sure how dog whistles relate to racism
Me either man....lets just see how this plot twist turns out. Is it a well worded insult to transcend being racist, being another species, or is it just a long lost twin brother return like a soap opera. Find out, tomorrow on Days of Pee N Rrrr

Lefties like to pretend some speech is actually secret racist code. Therefore they call it a dog whistle as though only racists can interpret the code.

I had a Gundam Wing one for mine "One should never give up until the end" or something.

I'd agree here. Doubt the drama wont intensify another way tho. I'm still waiting for Kent Brockman to report on the Nude Sleeping in an Oxygen Tent. =)

Is the figure of speech a "dog whistle" because only other racist can hear it? So... like, if the racist had hearing that can only be heard using a whistle that only they can hear then whatever the message would be, is only audible to them? wouldn't "hidden message" or something be easier to understand if this is the meaning? seems kind of convoluted and confusing. I had to seriously overthink this to figure out how it could possibly be contextually relevant to racism.

Gundam Wing, huh. I'm betting its unwatchable in this day and age. Especially since Iron Blooded Orphans came out.

I haven't bothered with Gundam since Double OO seemed to be a wanky fetish for just selling Toys and their Kits as much as possible. Shure, the story seems legit at first, but rewatched it, felt so shallow. Then something Build Fighters came? no more War, just Pokemon meets Gundam, and I was done with all of it.

I'm a huge Gundam SEED fan tho. Wing is waht got me into Gundam, I want to rewatch Gundam Wing, I tried a year ago, but got lazy with changing DVDs. 08th MS is probably my 5/5 rating on the ones that I have watched, before I stopped. /shrug

8th MS team and 0083 are good spinoffs, Seed is just a knockoff of the original show. Iron Blooded Orphans is the best Gundam in the last 30 years. Its really good, no more of the kid stuff, its ruthless.

Yah 0083 started off good but just went kerpllafff at end. I heard director died mid story. I chalk it up to that.

Yes, I really like the SEED aspect of that remake of it along with adding the "bigotry" against those eugenically enhanced, and the crazed fanaticism on both sides. I liked original MSG and few sequels passed. Zeta was good, I have that old DVD set. ZZ, so much annoying.

I have a really big soft spot for X. Great concept, great designs, poorly handled story.

Dog whistle
Sounds like transcending racism insult, like speciesist! OMG!

Ya ya I know that definition isn't what it means at all and has lots of well rooted history of not being "speciesist", but since we can change the definition of what we are offended by or what we oppose, lets throw dog whistle to that!

It's insulting to say someone heard a dog whistle! You're calling them a dog! That's a hate crime! HATE!!!! /blows rape whistle

Gundam Wing is one of the few animes I could stand to watch for an entire series. Not that it was flawless or anything, but it wasn't prone to a lot of the irritating anime tropes that I was used to seeing.

Yes but “dog whistle” is the intent to codify meanings into words so that the actual targets don’t pick up on the meaning; and if they do we can just play it off that we’re just talking about the surface definition.

Ex: people who rant about “Progressive Globalists” really mean the (((Jews))).
