I reject the entire notion that it "may" have a dual purpose because doing so only serves to legitimize that idea. This is also why they are blurring out his face, publicly acknowledging subversive ideas and shitty people only popularizes them and legitimizes them.
No, by falling for what they're doing, you're passing off everything they do as "just kids being silly". When clearly it's not. "Oh look, he referenced video games lol". But there's actually a lot of racism ingrained into gaming culture as well.

As for what to do about it, I have no idea. But the first step is to just stop treating white terrorism as "just crazy kids being crazy" and not taking it as seriously as organized terrorism.
