So fight mud with mud and make it harder to recognize the true intent.

Or better yet, make it so that the symbols are just way more commonly associated with non-asshole meanings.

It's like the ok sign. It's only a dog whistle when combined with other things. Mudding the water doesn't work when there's layers unless you muddy the layers. But then they just add a layer

Better to let them use it and out themselves
