Obligatory “not today” disclaimer: actually fucked up over two decades ago, but found out today.
At the dawn of theinternet, I made an account on imgur. I figured (correctly) that I wasn’t going to use it often enough for the username to matter much, so I just went with the first part of my email adress and a number four times.
Turns out that there is such a thing as nazi number code and it’s never a good idea to use an even number of 8s for usernames when you’re not a nazi.
TL;DR: Didn’t know about nazi code, accidentally selected an imgur username ending with the equivalent of a double Hitler salute
He definitely would. Dude is so sheltered or allowed to be so wilfully blind that he doesn’t even know that neo-nazis exist and are a significant problem and he’s calling OTHER people privileged 🤦🤯
Edit: I read on and found out that he was just a fascist pretending that he and his buddies are just misunderstood normal conservatives 🤦
@Viking_Hippie 99% of the time when people try to nitpick the definition of Nazis like this, they’re Nazis.
That’s very true and I am intellectually aware, but I have an annoying habit of sometimes being overly optimistic when it comes to assuming good faith so that I miss some that should be obvious lol.
Then again, it’s usually the me calling them an idiot rather than a liar, so they don’t get a pass either way 😁
