Spencer said publicly traded companies have to show constant growth or else nobody will give them money.

        Yes, yours, bullshitter with two Nazi dogwhistles in your name and a new account.

              Even if it was innocent, putting 88 in your username at best makes you unoriginal and old.

              You’re half dead and you still can’t figure out a unique name that doesn’t give Nazis cover?

              Pathetic.

                step off the gas. nicknames and numbers can have entirely different cultural contexts.

                for me, i’ve never seen “juice” used to refer to jews, nor “88” being used to refer to nazis, and i’ve been on the internet a long time.

                when i see “juice”, the first thing i think of is the song by lizzo. “88” is used as a replacement for “bye bye” in cantonese lingo.

                plenty of usernames are just random word + year of birth. stop overanalyzing it and chill.

                You sound like the kind of person who would just assume Hindu temples were made by Nazis because they contained swastikas. Just because some assholes used a symbol as a dogwhistle doesn’t mean that the rest of the world should stop using it.

                    I’m not gullible, or a dumbass. Those are harsh words from somebody who can’t understand that not everything is a dogwhistle.

                    Your username is just as sus by your own logic. Grand Dragon is a title for leaders in the KKK.

              88 = Heil Hitler

              That’s one I’ve never heard before. Is it some sort of neonazi slang or am I just really dumb?

              Well, looked it up before posting this comment. That’s absolutely crazy that it’s an actual thing.

                It’s literally one of their most common dogwhistles and has been for as long as the Internet has existed, lol

                If you see a 14 or a 88 anywhere in a username you need to start asking questions about intent.

                I’m internet poisoned as hell but I’m surprised that that’s not common knowledge. Its also often 1488 with the 14 referring to the 14 words of the following neo-nazi slogans:

                “We must secure the existence of our people and a future for white children”

                “because the beauty of the White Aryan woman must not perish from the Earth.”
