Guess I've been living under a rock or something because I had to look up what 1488 meant.
I still don't fully understand though... Is this something that a lot of people recognise as a nazi / white supremacist symbol, or is it more of a niche reference?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

They say it to each other as a greeting, usually they just say 88. Another great one is TTMFBBTT, which means they are Aryan Brotherhood members "til the motherfucking body bag toe tag". Or they say "wood wood", which is short for either peckerwoods or feather woods, which is a male and female AB member.

The Klan say KIGY, AKIA, and KLASP.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

In the US it may be more popular. I only know about 88 or 18 for HH or AH.

Whoever took this screenshot is the user with that Discord name

[–] [email protected] 64 points 1 week ago
[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (27 children)

That looks like screenshot from any user to me. The highlighting is the same as me taking a screenshot of a comment where I @ someone else. It also looks the same when I see someone else's comment @ someone else.

Edit: thank you all for down voting me for admitting that I didn't notice the difference in the background and replied thinking they might be referring to the name highlighting. Clearly I must have been disagreeing with the comment I replied to and not just trying to learn something!

[–] wander1236 72 points 1 week ago (1 children)

The message in the OP has a yellow tint to the background along with a yellow line on the left.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 week ago
[–] [email protected] 25 points 1 week ago

I believe the yellow background highlight is the difference

[–] [email protected] 25 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I upvoted, but don't worry about karma on this site. It doesn't mean anything here, most people & apps don't care about some form of "total karma".

All things considered it also didn't mean anything on Reddit, but people get a bit egotistical on there.

What do we call a Discord that allows nazis in it? A Nazi Discord.

[–] [email protected] 33 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Well, now that Discord is going public, we can probably just call it Discord.

[–] Xttweaponttx 2 points 6 days ago

Nnnooooo god is it really? I fucking despise discord but I have a couple dipshit friend groups that refuse to shift off the platform (hard to argue w/ Xbox integration).... Jfc if that shit goes public its downhill from an already downhill slope 😭 horrendous

Nathan Higgers, born 13 January, 1988:

[–] [email protected] 24 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Pretty sure i get the rest of it, but not sure I get the dog whistle behind 13 January. What's the deal with that?

[–] [email protected] 29 points 1 week ago (1 children)

1301, refers to the 13 Teutonic bloodlines united under 1 race

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Says Porto88-1, dropping some deep racism lore...

I do feel bad for people born in the year 1488 though, their usernames look really suspicious.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yeah, I feel bad for the Jewish rabbi, Joseph ben Ephraim Karo

JosephKaro1488 was his gamertag

(He was actually born in 1488 lol)

The whole number or just the 88? I learned about 88 in high school because I questioned why all the racist kids wore it.

Edit: I just noticed the rest of his name. Hooboy. lol

The 14 refers to “The Fourteen Words”

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

[–] merc 32 points 1 week ago (4 children)

It's funny because it's hardly an inspiring or memorable 14 word sentence. It's just awkward and clunky.

Like, why "secure"? Why not "safeguard" or "defend"? IMO those are stronger, more emotionally resonant words.

And why "existence"? Why not something stronger like "survival" or something more than survival like "prosperity"?

And just "a future" for white children? Not "a glorious future" or "a triumphant future"?

And, why "white children"? Not the white race?

Also, how is "a future for white children" distinct from "the existence of our people"? Are white children distinct from "our people"?

I could get it if it were framed as: we must defend our survival now so that our children can prosper. In that case you're saying that the present might be tough but the future will be bright. But they're not painting the future as bright, just "a future", which is really the same as an "existence" so it's basically saying "Our people must survive and so must our children, who are also our people, but smaller."

Like, they memorized the first draft of some dumb saying and revere it as "the 14 words", but it's just badly written, nevermind all the racism.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 1 week ago (3 children)

It's the same tactic as the "It's OK to be white" or "White lives matter" slogans, but more clever because it leaves enough ambiguity such that just about anything can be justified under it. It mentions children to come across as more innocent and to implicitly accuse the opposition of endangering children (also playing into LGBT scaremongering, with the Nazis using the same tropes they use today). "Think of the children!" is a common and effective propaganda line.

Saying "future" instead of "glorious future" suggests that the children wouldn't have a future at all otherwise. That the white race is under attack and is otherwise on track to be eliminated by Jews and communists and so forth. It's harder to justify atrocities in the name of "a glorious future" vs "a regular future" as opposed to "a regular future" vs "we are completely exterminated ourselves."

It is, of course, bullshit, because it's literally Nazi propaganda trying to frame them as on the "defensive," but it is carefully and intelligently crafted propaganda. It's important to understand the enemy and their approaches in order to better counter their movements and defeat them, they should not be underestimated.

Gee, I wonder if Aryansoldier1488 knows if 1488 is a dog whistle for Nazis? I'd hate for Aryansoldier to get caught up in this. It was probably a random number.

[–] [email protected] 27 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Poor guy was probably just born on 1/4/1988 and his real name is just Ayra N Soldier. People these days just call everybody a Nazi smh /s

It has Aryan Soldier in the name and they are worried about 1488 lol, this is a good one.

Thank you for explaining the punch line

You must be fun at parties

[–] [email protected] 23 points 1 week ago (3 children)

They might be fun at parties, you don't know them.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 week ago

Matter of fact I am. Also, I don't know him.

The surprising thing is that they're not fun at parties because they attempt an epic keg stand and you end up calling an ambulance and everyone goes home early

[–] TheMightyCanuck 1 points 6 days ago

Who let's an ambulance shut down a kegger?

Sounds like we're drinking in their honour now lol

Seriously, I didn't see the name until after I read the comments. I got totally tricked; good job!

How courteous

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 week ago

That's good looking out.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

I hope he gets messaged every hour about how his name might draw the wrong crowd.

Also that he needs to take pills for a bigger penis.

ETA: And that he might be able to profit from Nigerian princes needing some money laundered through the United States.

Also he should try EA's FIFA offerings... okay, I'm getting carried away. No one deserves that.
