    TBF look at the image in the screenshot op posted. It looks like they deliberately chose a photo of someone with brown skin in a brown hijab because, if you don’t look closely, it looks like it covers her face.

      They might have chosen the image to insinuate that Muslims are black but since they put it so bluntly side by side with a Kippah I don’t think they were actually going for a dog-whistle. I don’t really like looking for “hidden dog-whistles” in things.

      The full image is a bit clearer, encoding might have destroyed it since it’s a screenshot of the image.
