    What they’re saying is that “every time” is a common phrase on nazi forums when someone points out the jewish ancestry of a powerful figure. It eventually became the more infamous triple parentheses, or the “what a coincidence” and so on. It is used as a dog whistle, but people forget that dog whistles exist in a context otherwise they don’t work. And that they are not just used to covertly signal other antisemites but to take over a topic and make it theirs like what happened with pepe, like they tried with👌 or whatever. There are unambigous dog whistles like “((()))” or “1488” and so on but this is not one of them.
