I have absolutely no knowledge about any of this but just wanted to say that’s well-written. Hope you get that pathetic POS.
Thanks! I doubt I’ll get a response or find out anything that happens, but hopefully this asshole at least needs to replace their plates.
It’s Indiana, they’ll probably retaliate.
Looks like someone who needs some break lights replacing, maybe two tires as well.

In a Korean car too which is funny.
What does the BODG stand for?
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.
I’m sorry you had to find out this way
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.
“Killing in the Name” is by Rage Against the Machine, but the point stands
Woops, apologies XD thank you for the rectification
Rage, not System 😊
Then the douchebag CEO for Dutch Brothers coffee wears a RATM shirt to their NYSE IPO which is where they filmed their anti-wallstreet music video “sleep now in the fire” with Michael Moore
Ronald Reagan used Springsteen’s “Born in the USA” like it was a patriotic song
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.
Oh, I didn’t even think about that. Definitely makes sense.
These idiots are the most adolescent childish racists ever.
This is the equivalent of a 10th grader typing 80085 into the school calculator!
80081135
I wonder how Thomas Kia feels about the shout out.
Well his number is right there, someone can give him a call…
I would imagine he’s busy.
How many Kias can possibly be sold on a Wednesday morning, in Indiana
Well it’s only Thomas holding down the fort
I’m sitting behind a California plate that reads “88 RISE”. Is that…?
Why are you surfing lemmy and driving? And don’t gimme that "I’m a passenger " bullshit, eyes on the road Fam!
I was parallel parked.
Maybe they just really like Boogey2988. In which case, yeah, report them.
That’s what I thought this was referring to at first. Interesting that Mr. “Centrist” has an 88 in his handle.
I wouldn’t read too much into his YouTube handle. He’s a chode but I don’t think he’s a nazi simp. I wouldn’t be surprised if it was auto-generated.
Yeah, he made it before that was a popular thing, I think. But still, interesting!
So I grew up in Canada, on the west coast, basically Vancouver. So I’m well aware of the dog-whistles. I now live in Scotland. There was an event where I work recently, and the event contractors were 88 Events. And immediately I was like: FUCKIN NAZIS!
My wife seems to think that they’re too…idk…girly? to be nazis, but where the fuck did 88 come from, they started up in 97, so couldn’t be that. I feel like I’m being fuckin paranoid, but the fascy bastards are coming out the woodworks lately…shrugs
There are two people I know who have racist relatives on FB. Their profile names are
MOI NI GARR
‘sambo’ jones
apparently you can be racist as fuck with your username on that cess pool.
what is it with white supremacists man… brain worms
That’s not a bug, it’s a feature. Meta knows that things like white nationalism drives engagement, so they don’t do anything about it.
Facebook (Fuck them, I’m not calling it Meta, its stupid) does do something, though.
It actively encourages it, because right wing extremists are a big chunk of their revenue. Since right wing extremists are more engaged (obsessed) than anyone else, and click more ads than anyone else.
Right wing extremists are the honey pot.
Which is why regular people can get banned for the most ridiculous of shit, yet right wing racists doesnt get banned even when posting terrorist threats, death threats, or racial slurs.
and honestly, its not just facebook. Its all social media.
88 stands for HH, which means Heil Hitler.
The more attention you give these idiots, the more they thrive… I mean hell…he’s driving a Kia , what else do you need to know…
That, for an American Nazi, they clearly understand that American cars kinda suck. /s?
I’m not sure if you are asking me if I’m being sarcastic or if you’re confused if you want to be sarcastic? Are you implying sarcastically that Kia’s are better than American brands like Ford/Chevrolet/GM?
Eh, I’m not a big fan of American cars, that said I really should have slapped a /s on the back there.
I gotcha I just don’t like Hyundai and Kia but the majority of other foreign brands usually are pretty well built
I find it somewhat odd that there wouldn’t be at least one “infowarrior rides” bumper sticker. Guess they just wanna be a lowkey shithead with the vanity plate.
yep, they call it “being crypto” or “hiding their power level”
The disambiguation page for Boogaloo is now a bunch of awesome shit like music and dance styles plus an extremist movement…
Fuck you, choose a different name for your whack ass antics.
I wonder how that nazi will drive his car when all four tires don’t have air in them?
Driving a Korean car no less
The best part is it also advertises how many of his own boogers he eats per week.
Think of the life where you have 88 boogers a day… The torture.
Is that a custom plate or did somebody get really unlucky with the plate they were given my the OMV/DMV?
Apparently it is not the standard design for an Indiana plate, so it must be a custom. Plus, the chances of randomly getting BOOG88 have got to be pretty small.
Plus, the chances of randomly getting BOOG88 have got to be pretty small.
The chances are exactly the same as getting any other random number (assuming the ‘4 letters, two numbers’ pattern is allowed in the random pool at all).
The probability of getting BOOG88 is the same as any other random series, but the chances of getting a random series that also has two extremist dogwhistles is very small
The chances are exactly the same as getting any other random number
Which are also pretty small.
Plus, the chances of randomly getting BOOG88 have got to be pretty small.
But not impossible.
I’m just imagining the guy that randomly got that license plate with no idea of any possible meaning.
He just can’t understand why his car is always the victim of such vandalism. Every time he gets it fixed, he finds it keyed again, or the tires flat, lights smashed…
Sure, I’m not saying this is smoking gun proof beyond a shadow of a doubt, but at the same time, it would be one hell of a coincidence.
Yeah, I’m not saying it was random chance either. I’m just amused by imagining the possibility of some poor sad sack who got it and can’t figure out why everyone hates him.
