Fucking fascists and their number obsessions. I don't get it.
Edit: before anyone replies, I do know what the numbers mean. I mean the obsession of using them to display their facism.

Isn't it like a dog whistle? It can only be understood by those that know. Of course that's not the case anymore but I wouldn't have known until it was pointed out to me some time ago. And it's not just numbers either.
I doubt the millionaire co-owner of a major chain of grocery stores is involved in setting the price of whole boneless beef tenderloin.
Nbd for me, I shop at Conseco's but Rouse's does make really good Italian sausage.
Seems like two very noticable strikes against a shitty business to me. Whoever thought this was a good idea made the entire company look like they also believe it was a good idea.
If nobody is willing to clear up this whole misunderstanding, then people might understandably assume that other businesses associated with them also believe it was a good idea.
I hope these people burn in hell.
I normally only steal from chain grocery stores, but I'll make an exception for his store if I'm ever in the area
$14.88 is a very suspicious price for meat and a 'crazy 88 cent sale' is basically confirmation.
If it isn't ibtentional then someone setting prices needs to learn how to avoid dogwhistles. But I'm just going to assume the worst because it usually is.
yeah, but it's bOnELeSs tenderloin ... aren't you sick of all that bone in tenderloin you keep getting?!
Lol, I missed that in all them pixels.
How much for a gay wedding cake?
Have seen this one here in New Zealand too.
Was a company selling house insulation for $14.88/m², and the owner was a similarly reprehensible individual:
That guy is a Nazi
I would keep an eye on this asshole. However, this seems like the first "crazy 8" sale.
If I am remembering right, .88 is a manager sale.
Those price 'codes' are only applicable at Costco, and even then, it's more of a 'secret menu' type of thing based mostly on hearsay and rumors.
I fully understand that. Some times people also like to connect things that are not there.
I looked at their last 4 flyers, 5 if you count the spanish version as well. This was the only one that stood out.
There was no heavy use of 14 or 88 in any of the other ones. Even looked at the front page of each and I believe 88 showed up once.
I'm not saying that the owner is a good guy. I would bet a lot to say he is topself shit. I'm not saying he isn't racist. Loving Trump gives that a heavy tilt. I'm saying nothing points to nazi flyer. If the next flyer is 14 and 88, then I'm on board. I just don't want to be Qanon but blue version.
Oh yeah to clarify I'm not defending the owner or anything, I was just trying to say the price codes at costco are probably not related to whatever is going on here.
The $14.88 sale is free advertising. Plus the guy can say it's just the woke trying to cancel him when he gets his Fox News interview.
I mean to some extent maybe, but what is the alternative? Not call a Nazi out for being a Nazi?
I already don't shop there and I tell people not to shop there. Bigger question to me is why is a subreddit that is still cosplaying as progressive, allowing ads for a Nazi? Or anywhere else. That's the bigger fish. Pressure people to stop allowing Nazis to advertise.
Can anyone bring me into the loop? I don’t know any of the significance here.
oh shit, thank you
When I first heard it, i was like is it some conspiracy about the Americas being discovered by someone else other than Columbus haha
Heh ?
