The kinds of people who think that “the cultural elite” (Jewish people living in blue states, let’s be honest about that dog whistle, it never seems to apply to Rush Limbaugh or Trump or Tucker Carlson or Elon Musk or Kanye West even though Robert’s main claim to fame is being a Labor Secretary for four years in the nineties) control anything are also the kinds of people who take biased headlines as gospel and don’t bother reading anything further.
“Cultural Elite” is not a dog whistle for Jewish people. That’s an actual term that academics and historians use to describe people like doctors, lawyers, judges, professors, famous artists, and similar.
“George Soros” is the current right wing dog whistle for, “Jewish people”.

Instead they’re used for C-list media personalities of a certain demographic, implying that they’re controlling everything from behind the scenes, which is itself the dog whistle.
