@cgsines @OhNoSheTwitnt The idea of that chant is plausible deniability. They'll claim they're saying "You will not..."

Even if they were saying "you" instead of "Jew," it's a generalized racism/xenophobia instead of specifically antisemitic. They're plausibly not denying anything.

@cgsines @OhNoSheTwitnt It works on the ppl who want to be fooled 🤷 which is the whole point of dogwhistles.

@cgsines @OhNoSheTwitnt They could even say "Yep! We were saying 'Jews will not replace us'", and the wants-to-be-fooled centrist would say "There's no way they said what it sounds like, they must have been saying 'you'"... 🤦

It’s heartbreaking to know our fellow Americans were just waiting for permission to unleash their hate by a reality show criminal.

Its people that agree with them but think they will be shunned by their betters if they can't claim ignorance.
