    Well shit. I missed the history link in their about us page. Seems like that really is very unfortunate. Maybe I should email them and mention that 88 is a dog-whistle?

      I doubt they’d change their name, but I suppose it couldn’t hurt to mention it to them…

          It couldn’t hurt tbh. Maybe provide some sources of other major Hitler 88 sympathizers. Worst case scenario they don’t care and best case they change their name, maybe they’ll publicly support lgbt with flags or what have you in order to show they’re not dog whistling.

      The number has been in use in Europe for decades. If they didn’t know it then, they sure do by now already.
