You know, I think, by an large, that “dog whistles” are mostly imaginary. But not in his case. NBF was a deadly cavalry raider, but a indifferent general. However, there are more monuments to him that any other CSA general, excepting Lee. And you know why? Because he founded the KKK. NBF being lionized is a 100% pure dogwhistle to the ears of the KKK and their allies.
