Dogwhistles 101 was a video series I made and published periodically through YouTube between January 2024 and February 2026, stemming from a longstanding, albeit detached, interest of mine in understanding the memetic signs and signifiers of reactionary-leaning imageboard websites. In each of the two-hundred-and-fifty videos I made in this series - all typically three-to-five minutes long - I would briefly define the concept of a socio-political 'dogwhistle', then explain the origin and meaning of one specific example created or popularised by imageboards.
While I do still affirm the broad accuracy of the information presented within - and I did always see this sort of series as having the potential to genuinely inform viewers about individual coded imageboard memes and in-jokes - it was never intended to be a comprehensive resource. A truly exhaustive accounting of abstruse internet memes would be practically impossible to put together - owing to the sheer abundance of examples in existence across online communities and language-barriers, their inherently obscured meanings and origins, and the frequency with which new ones are created and spread constantly.
In view of this, and seeking to focus my time henceforth on other projects, I consider Dogwhistles 101 indefinitely retired from April 2026 onwards. Presently, my Dogwhistles 101 videos are no longer publicly listed on YouTube. However, if only for archival purposes, they are still viewable - and all of them are linked to below, ordered and sorted alphanumerically by title.

Shibboleths 101
Shibboleths 101 was something of a short-lived experimental spinoff of Dogwhistles 101. Nine videos were made in this series - which largely followed the format of its predecessor, while being focused primarily on signifiers from more liberal- or progressive-leaning websites like Tumblr. Similarly, these videos are no longer publicly listed on YouTube, but are linked below for archival purposes.
• Alexandria's Genesis
• Blåhaj
• Boymoder
• Miku Binder Thomas Jefferson
• Rabies Pride
• Super Hell / Turbo Super Hell
• The $20
• The President's Shoelaces
• Worm-on-a-String
