I want you to expand on that last sentence, because I genuinely cannot parse what you mean

No problem, from what I understand of your comment, you were saying that something as innocuous as a number can’t be taken seriously as a dog whistle.

I was countering this by asking you to apply that same logic to other groups which might use a dog whistle of sort (which the hole point of a dog whistle is that most people don’t pick up on it and it’s only for the intended preverbal ‘dogs’) and see if you still felt the same way.

Was just meant to provoke thinking about other stuff you might not have considered or overlooked is all

Okay, but what do you mean by “thug gangster rappers” and "a silly little reference?" What thug gangster rappers? What silly little reference?
