I'm noticing a trend in which conservatives judge people by their actions whereas liberals judge people by their presumed secret thoughts. Am I imagining that trend? Could be confirmation bias.

That was on full display during the primary and election. “Trump said THIS about a WOMAN/POC! He must be a MISOGYNIST/RACIST!” And it’s like ok...he said that about ONE woman/POC...have you heard some of the things he’s said about straight white men?

it's because conservatives aren't conscious of the fact their ears only are sensitive to the dog-whistles. you can literally walk into a large group of conservatives, whisper "states' rights," and their heads will all perk up like deer who heard a distant sound, true story

It’s not a dog whistle when the
@POTUS literally says people who kneel in protest during a song shouldn’t be in the country. How do you spell First Amendment? https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/trump-says-nfl-players-who-kneel-during-national-anthem-maybe-n876996 … -
I don’t agree with Trumps approach, but it’s not racist. He’s not saying black people in general “maybe shouldn’t be in the country”. It’s also a hyperbolic statement saying if they don’t like it here they are free to leave.

Really? The "Obama wants to institute Sharia Law" people? None of the accusations of communism against the center-left? The multitude of conspiracy theories? Those don't qualify as "dog whistles." Seems like the extremes of *both* sides love their half-baked conclusions.
