Right wing think tank market research firm analyst who gets paid to generate content - "Hey boss, we need to build upon our fear of a black planet campaign build off the moment of last weeks 'Biden Affirmative Action Supreme Court Black' push. I ran typical dog whistle generator using whitelist 42a (How do I get this stuff top pring properly?) and it picked up on this research grant. I get the general idea of what the system is trying to do but the dogwhistle keyword for blacks isn't jumping out for me.

Right wing think tank market research firm analyst's Boss- "Keep scrolling...right there Safe smoking kits"
Analyst - "You mean like cigarettes'?
Right wing think tank market research firm analyst's Boss- "No....like drugs"
Analyst - "You mean like Meth or something? We can't use meth. The data shows that's perceived as a white demographic issue. You can't say Meth as our core is more sypathetic to meth. Plus Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul are pretty fucking awesome. You ever watch it?
Analyst's Boss- "No think Reagan era. The old Crack thing"
Analyst's -- "People still do Crack? Is that still a thing?"
Analyst's Boss- "Doesn't matter. It's simple. Our core demographic believes that Blacks = Inner City and that Inner city = Crack epidemic. The old people love that shit. All you have to say is the word crack and it automatically kills multiple bird with one stone...or rock....so to speak. "
Analyst's -- "Huh"
Analyst's Boss -- "Say the word crack and it automatically conjures up welfare queens, gangs and all the imagery with Balitore, Detroit and NYC "
Analyst's - " I'm from NYC. "
Analyst's Boss -- "Whatever....just flood the feeds with a focus on 30m for Crack and make sure you include the standard keywords like equity and all that shit. It really set people off when they see those words in an article."
