I mean, dog whistles are a kind of euphemism by definition, and I’ve literally never seen anyone but Epstein in his emails use cheese pizza to directly mean CP or victims.
If you’re seeing it that much as a casual euphemism you really need to ask yourself some questions about the people saying it and why you’re hanging around them.
Literally the use of pizza imagery as code for pedo stuff was one of the central claims of the qanon pizza gate conspiracy. Seems like other than it not being in the basement of a pizza place with no basement they had most of it right, strangely enough.
I’d have to go back and look at the pizza gate stuff from that time. Because I also remember it wasn’t just a conspiracy about child sex slaves, they also believed the elites were feeding on adrenochrome. I haven’t kept up with the Epstein files and it’s really difficult to keep up with what’s sensationalized versus what’s actually in there. The idea that Epstein and friends pushed the adrenochrome version of the story to cover the more grounded child sex ring version isn’t too far fetched. It’s so difficult to separate conspiracy theory from fact in this shit. Genuinely the worst timeline.
I’m just saying the term has been around for a while and felt more like a euphemism than a dog whistle to me in how people used it.

I heard edgy teenagers making jokes about it in highschool over a decade ago. It’s not something I hear on a daily basis.
