It says BOOG, as in boogaloo, as in Civil War 2: Electric Boogaloo

You’ve got to be kidding? They’re appropriating Electric Boogaloo (a film about break dancing and the black community) as their slogan? That is wrong on so many levels.

A few years ago Republicans were also dancing to System of a Down’s Killing in the Name Of song as if it was pro-them.

Never underestimate the amount of stupid and innapropriate conservatives are capable of.

Not only that, according to the wikipedia article OP linked:

“The boogaloo movement has created logos and other imagery incorporating [igloo] snow huts and Hawaiian prints based on these derivations.”

If white supremacy was so “supreme”, why are these morons using Indigenous-based iconography for their movement I wonder. They’ll claim it’s to “fly under the radar”, but that just makes them look even more smooth brained.

Looks like someone who needs some break lights replacing, maybe two tires as well.

So, funny story, as a kid my favorite number was 8, had a few reasons that matched 8.

So I always used it in names and such. But, often it wasnt unique, so I used 88 instead. Emails, account names, even video game characters have 88 in them to this day.

… Am I accidentally a Nazi?

My wife’s pet name is Boog, and I’m determined not to let Nazis take it away.

I had a cat growing up named Boog… named after John “Boog” Powell… the baseball player, not Nazis.

Born in 1988? Lots of folks born that year decided to have those two digits in their first Internet usernames as well. A few of those will still be in use, no doubt, so you’re not alone. (Me? No, I’m older.)

In your shoes, I’d maybe think about changing things around, especially the easy ones, but you’re not me, nor I you.

The way it was explained to me is that H is the 8th letter of the alphabet, HH stands for Hile Hitler

No. 88 is just a number. It can be used as a dog whistle, but it can also be used, for instance, to describe a quantity equidistant between 87 and 89. Numbers and symbols don’t make a Nazi, actions and rhetoric do.

I love Norse symbology. I’m not going to stop loving it because some fuckbrains use it to spread hate. Fuck that.

Based. Same goes for the boogaloo “movement” just because there are Nazis in it doesn’t mean it’s a primaryily Nazi community.

No, but it is primarily a white supremacists movement and the ‘88’ on the license plate kinda takes away all doubt.

I’m gonna go ahead and guess nobody got a vanity plate about an Asian music production company unless they own that company.

From Wikipedia:

Headquartered in New York City, the company also has offices in Los Angeles and Shanghai.

So it could be a company car.
