It’s a dog whistle. They just assume that their group would never be targeted. What they are saying is:
‘The government is gonna weed out the “impure” from anyone who isn’t republican.’
Edit: looks like most people are missing my point (possibly should have been more clear). I think it’s ignorant to think they are thinking of rules that apply to everyone. This is more about in group and out group logic.
The mask thing was rules for the in groups, so they oppose. ICE is taking the rights of the out group (minorities and leftists), so no problem from their view.
I don’t think they’re saying the OP is dog whisteling. He’s saying the conservative “just obey” attitude is a dog whistle because racists think it will never be applied to them. They say “just comply” but they’re really talking to minorities.
That’s an ignorant take.

It’s an ignorant take to point out the facts that happened? Literally nothing was inferred here except for whatever you came up with in your head

I understand but the verbiage just didn’t make sense. There’s no “take” here.
Reality is a “take” now. This is where we’re at.
I don’t think it’s ignorant to point out their hypocrisy.
Hold up. What’s the ‘take’?
This is literally just things they have said.
