       TIL the significance of "88" in neo-Nazism... I mean, it's such a cool number for Chinese and I have an Ansibull jersey with the number 88 😅https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/88_(number)#Cultural_significancehttps://mstdn.thndl.com/@YLENewsUnofficialRSSMirror/110632816420524169

       @cybette US, or global? If it's global then that's a shame, if it's US then you can still use the number. Thank duck I wasn't born in 1988. ;-)

       @richardazia @cybette wherever Nazis are raising, unfortunately. It's one of their used codes.

       @ascherbaum @richardazia Yeah at least in Europe I think it's quite well known. Probably less so in Asia

       @cybette The California DMV (can't speak to any other states) refuses to allow "88" or "14" in personalized license plates because of Nazi connotations unless they verify that it's for a 1988 or 2014 vehicle. (Learned this by following the amusing @ca_dmv_bot).The neo-Nazis ruined the use of Norse runes as well since some of them use them so heavily in their graphics and iconography.

       @cybette Don't let them take that from you. You keep your 88 and use it for good purposes!

       @bishop6Wow @ca_dmv_bot is very interesting indeed, and probably lots of disappointed Chinese customers 😆Another symbol is the swastika... https://www.reuters.com/article/factcheck-finland-russia-idUSL2N2XG0WK
