I'm not saying the show was made by Nazis but it sure looks like a graphic artist is

Giving the graphic artist the benefit of the doubt, is that a locatable site on a map? Say, Angels Landing in Zion National Park, southwestern Utah?

ETA Details for the series are scant. Something about the dark side of Silicon Valley so no clear connection to Utah.

I don't see what you're referring to

[–] Uglyhead@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Zoom in,.. “1488” sitting right there.

[–] LanternEverywhere@kbin.social 9 points 1 year ago (2 children)

So? What's special about that number?

[–] Uglyhead@lemmy.world 19 points 1 year ago

A common hate symbol and white supremacist numerical code.

See here: https://www.adl.org/sites/default/files/ADL%20Hate%20on%20Display%20Printable_0.pdf

Scroll down a bit and you’ll see “14 Words” (which I will not be copying and pasting) and 88, which is another white supremacist numerical code.

[–] BrerChicken@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

The 14 is the amount of words in a certain ridiculous and oh so ignorant slogan, and 8 refers to the 8th letter of the alphabet, which is H. So there's two of them, H H. Hi Honey? I don't know, something dumb.

1488 is a white supremacist/modern Nazi dog whistle. The 14 stands for "the 14 words:" "We must secure the existence of our people and a future for white children." The 88 stands for the 8th letter in the alphabet, H: heil Hitler.

If you've never heard of this, know that I'm not a numerology weirdo seeing messages where they don't exist. 1488 it's how they self-identify and it's used as a dog whistle to each other. It's easily searchable.

Hey, it's that number from all those reddit usernames.

[–] mako@lemmy.today 2 points 1 year ago

Or maybe it's just a random number for a graphic?
