Do you intend to present any sort of logical rebuttal or are you sticking with a purely ad hominem attack?

Out of curiosity do you think it's possible that some people have "88" in their username for purely benign reasons like being born in 1988? Do you think it's greater or fewer than the number of users who have "88" in their name because they intend to directly associate with white supremacist groups?

Plausible deniability is of course the goal with this type of dog whistling. They're too cowardly to just be open, so they use code. This isn't news unless you actively deny it.

No shit. That's how plausible deniability works. Go look it up.

So you're saying that every single user, without exception, with "88" in their username is a neo-nazi?

Is that what you got from what I said? Your reading comprehension is terrible. Is English not your first language? That's the only excuse for this.
