Great detective work. I wonder why these fascists bother coding their message? Everyone can see who they are and what they want: they want the end of American democracy and the establishment of a white, fascist dictatorship!

The fascist regime is pretty upfront about what they are doing. And we brain dead zombies just let it keeping happening every day since this asswipe took office. Our duopoly system ain't working dear comrades. We are now a fascist nation. Revolt or bend the knee America.

The painting by itself represents enough without asking AI about the wording of the caption.

We don't need hints and coded messages to get the message. It's been there for all to see for ages. Trump and his goons are Nazis and ICE is the gestapo. Now green card holders have to show their "papers" on demand. What else do we need to see what's going on?

And the bear, painted like a snarling dog slinking away. White colonial rule over all creation. So evil!

That bottom right farming scene and the dancing tribal looking figures in the distance. So much yikes just in this painting. You can tell where the artists ideology was. 😬

The Orange Cheeto as Chief Lecher in Command

Cheeto’s lecherous past is clear He evaded public scrutiny over his sordid sexual predatory behavior for years First the Access Hollywood tapes, then the E Jean Carroll rape civil settlement, then the conviction in the Stormy Daniels escapade, but even his MAGA base can’t stomach the perverse pedophilia story hidden in the Epstein files

Even “I like beer” Kavanaugh is trying to come to Cheeto’s aid But this tale is not about a drunken Cheeto abusing a lady like Blasey Ford at a college party This is a story of a lifelong lecher who just so happened to hook up with another pedophile

And the victims hopefully will get a chance to tell their story Maria Farmer who was the first to come forward to report Epstein to the Clinton FBI in 1996 had her report Kbashed since it was right in the middle of Clinton’s impeachment and clearly Clinton being associated with Epstein at that point in time would have been a devastating blow to Clinton

So as Farmer tells the story, lecher Cheeto shows up unannounced in a dimly lit Epstein office and begins making remarks about Farmer’s legs But Epstein knowing Cheeto tells him “she’s not for you” What the hell does that mean? Epstein then ushers Cheeto out to another room There are so many more stories that the victims can tell Congress and they’re hoping they’ll get their chance I do too

Let's look deeper and ask:

1) Do adherents of MAGA use #DogWhistles to please Trump or to acclimate us toward an acceptance of more overt behaviors that resemble Nazism? (Is this just the ordinary conversation style of right-wing media sources, like Fox News? I wouldn't know, I don't consume such rubbish.)

2) Is this another distraction?

Does anyone ask the people sacrificing their reputations in order to save Donald Trump's position if they ever thought they'd be trying to distract or mislead the American public to provide cover for a "President Pedophile"? (Reporters: PLEASE ASK THEM!)

3) Is "BUILD THE WALL!" a racist dog whistle, a call for eugenics?

Consider the letter from Charles Davenport had asked Madison Grant a century ago. (If it's still legal, watch this PBS documentary on the Eugenics movement: https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/americanexperience/films/eugenics-crusade/)

4) Are we imitating the Nazis or were they imitating us? (Is labelling such things "Nazi" actually a form of denial about our own past?)

"Propaganda" "the Eugenics Movement" "'Jim Crow' racist laws" were all "Made in America."

5) What can we do to prevent another #RedSummer or similar descent to barbarism?

Whether there is coding or not doesn't matter so much as the image does. Coming right out and stating manifest destiny is all you need to know. This smacks of Stephen Miller and people like Kristi Noem and Tom Homan. Besides that, we should be paying more attention to the mass hiring of thousands of new ICE agents. This is truly our brown shirt moment. How many people are going to die soon once these storm troopers start hitting the streets around the country?

I am surprised anyone thinks that Nazi influence is not at the core of the dissent. Did we MISS the Nazi salute on election night? It has been very clear, from t he beginning, Musk is a fourteen years old boy who likes insulting through "clever" puzzles. That's about all he is worth. However? Everything in that picture is known. We were taught about manifest destiny and every single county in Europe carried the same message to the countries they carried out a genocide.

Which makes me ask. Why are we letting this happen in the Gaza? This is not a GAME or a word PUZZLE, it's children starving to death. It is very intersting to discover, yet again, that the white race feels it should own the world. It would be foolish to imagine this country having any other motivation. This is a race war we are in. The unfinished Civel War, the assignations of Dr. King and Malcum X, and so on down the line. The Native population here was our own genocide which continues until today. So much so that Native American's are being DEPORTED because they are brown. Who would doubt that NATIVE AMERICANS have citizenship.

That is not the point. THe point is, Obama became president, scared white boys and now we pick up brown people and their friends, WITH citizenship and put them in a concentration Camp.

This is a race war. And we will have to fight it out once and for all. Puzzles are fun.

The motives of the people involved are anything but and are so clear anyone can see them without a puzzle. A race war.

What is the chance Stephen Miller is NOT behind that?

This is the second time I am reading about this poster, and then I also read about another one from them with a White Pioneer couple holding a baby on it with such a message yesterday. Homeland Security is anything but.

In my opinion, this is not silly and not a distraction. They are setting up a massive network of concentration camps and the police state is here and about to explode. This their way of signaling to those Jubilee lunatics, “Get ready.” Add this to Vance ‘s “blood and soil” reference at Claremont Institute, and Trump’s “big announcement” of two 88 foot flagpoles, plus all of the salutes. I mean who announces flagpoles and their HEIGHT? Normally no one cares about this. All these little crumbs. In fact I think Epstein is distracting us from THIS stuff! So, so many people I talk to are reluctant to believe what is totally obvious to us here.

Here's an analysis from ChatGPT:

"What are the odds this was all just a coincidence?

Let’s break it down:

✅ Exactly 14 words — matching the white supremacist “14 words” slogan

✅ Capitalized H and H — HH = 88 = Heil Hitler

✅ Also capitalized A and D — A = 1st, D = 4th → 1 + 4 = 14 again

✅ Paired with “American Progress” — a painting glorifying white conquest and Indigenous removal

Each of these could be brushed off individually. But together, the probability they all align unintentionally is low.

🔢 Estimated odds of pure coincidence?

< 1% — and arguably far lower, given how public-facing government messaging is carefully reviewed.

This isn't proof of intent — but the convergence of numeric, symbolic, and visual signals tied to white nationalism is too precise to ignore.

Sometimes “plausible deniability” is the strategy."
