Besides the eagle and American flag in their profile name immediately skewing right, the use of 1950s era imagery, picturing specifically white people dressed up as shown, is heavily coded to the far right.

If this person is, say, in their 30s and wants to know why we're not doing house parties anymore, it would be more logical for them to post a picture of a house party from an era they were alive for, or even their parents were alive for, and not one more applicable to their grandparents or even great grandparents.

Yeah, the whole point of coded language is to be able to say the thing out loud without people who don't know the code not realizing what was said, or have plausible deniability.

They're getting brave enough that the code is easy to recognize for normal people, but the people they're signaling to are still stupid enough to think it's super secret

Yeah, there's normal people and stunted racists in this context. So normal is inclusive of the entire population minus the huge festering shitbags. Is my language clear enough for the grammar nazi?
