        Does 1776 even count as a dog whistle? No one raised in the U.S. is going to see 1776 and not know what it’s a reference to and it’s not even anything controversial.

        If they wanted a dog whistle they’d have gone with 1488 (like my HOA’s annual dues this year 😡). I’d be surprised if they didn’t discuss it but decided theycouldn’t stomach the smaller amount.
