    Honestly seeking explanation because this is new to me and I’m afraid to Google it. What is “winnie” a dogwhistle for?

    There’s too damn many conservative dogwhistles these days.

      It’s from a South Park episode. It isn’t racist, or at least it wasn’t, Hong Kong protesters and Tiwan use it regularly. It’s just making fun of Xi Jinping as an individual.

        Oh the Winnie the Pooh comic thing. I laughed at that, but didn’t realize it was turning into a bigger thing. Got it.
