This is why it becomes important for us to have good faith conversations. I don't think it is impossible to have said conversations, but more difficult. We have to act in good faith and determine who is using this language as a dog whistle vs who is using it normally. We've seen how assuming everything is a dog whistle has backfired on us, so I'm not sure erroring in that direction is correct. But at the same time I don't think we should necessarily act as if there is no possibility someone is using language in that way (muddied waters). I think we just proceed with caution and do our best.
