thats a rite for freemasons from the looks of it. very not nazi. nazis even treated freemasons as if they were jews. i know these nazi dipshits are not that bright but a scottish freemason rite and being a nazi does not jive.
Report it and explain why it is gate speech. Even if the plate is a random number the state will get the person a new plate and stop handing out plates with that number.
Are we to ban every "secret" code that someone finds offensive? The plate is obviously a sequential number in a series. "88" might mean "heil hitler" to one, but in the Chinese culture, it means "extra wealth". "SS" might point to those nazi bastard soldiers, but what about the Chevy trim levels of "SS" for "Super Street"? Ive seen plates with "666" in there. Oh no, a satan lover! These are just 3 examples. This is cancel culture going to far. When does it stop?
Nazi apologist? Good one. What's not being in China have to do with it? My point is that we shouldn't ban numbers from license plates because it might offend people in the know. It's asinine. They'll just come up with something else that's just as dumb. Then more numbers will be banned. When you acknowledge the importance of their stupid inside information, you give them the power.
idk who downvoted this. Anyone who endorses the 14 words is literally a neonazi. Not like "oh this guy is an authoritarian and i just use the word nazi because its shorter" but like an actual white supremacist nazi.
I don't know that they were lying. I think at most they're mistaken.clearly we are of different schools of thought on this but I prefer not to assume the worst of people. Regardless it'd still be really weird for the driver to be pro-hitler and a Mason.
The nazi era Reichsadler did not have 2 heads. The Holy Roman Empire did, but so does the Scottish Rite which has a symbol that bears a REMARKABLE resemblance to that seal.
This. It specifically says "Vetran of the Falkan Wars" which I'm assuming is what the FW stands for. I'm going to need to see some more evidence to be incensed.
So, looking this up, veteran plates *cannot* be vanity plates, including in Virginia (which this plate looks like it is). So, this guy got the 1488th plate.
All of you relax in calling this random *VETERAN* a rabid racist without literally looking anything up
Additionally, if someone is going to overpay for a vanity plate, they sure as hell aren’t going to get that plate. It’s possible that everyone is looking way too deep at the plate. Good conversation though.
Yo, OP here. I can absolutely assure you that veteran plates can be personalized in the Commonwealth of Virginia. This dude is a member of the VFW. He went overseas during a foreign war. Guarantee he was in the rear, with the gear, being a little racist coward.
Hm, I'll have to look it up later as the VFW says that they're all serialized, and the Virginia DMV matched, so not sure where that screenshot is from. I believe you, just maybe I looked at something older
I appreciate you going through the effort and looking through all of the information, but I didn’t need to look any further than the picture because just above the Ford emblem is everything you need to know

It's a Veteran of Foreign Wars plate, so I'm guessing it's that.

Holy shit, so many people in the comments incorrectly trying to say he isn't a Nazi, getting proven wrong, then DOUBLING DOWN, lol.
ahorseelbowdeepinme
It's 4 digits that until this post I had no idea was a nazi thing. Meanwhile he has a very obvious Freemason logo on his truck.
SomeDetroitGuy
He has a vanity plate with a very obvious reference to Hitler. Yes, he's a fucking racist.
Badgerbadgerson3

I wonder how many of them use that in their passwords.

probably a lot. but this is a vet plate, they are just sequential, no vanity option. at least not real ones. dude probably does not know.

Well - I wasn't imaginging that. I suppose nutjobs have to have their little "secret" codes and stuff. They're just weird. And not in a nice way.

Yeah - we don't have them here, so I wasn't really on the ball. Thanks. You'd never get a plate like that here - DVLA wouldn't issue it.
HydrophobicDude
People also get them as bumper stickers, even tattoos. If you see '88' or '1488' - Nazi.

ahorseelbowdeepinme
Well, the driver is also a freemason so probably not intentionally using that nazi code. If you look hard enough you can find secret codes everywhere
SomeDetroitGuy
Why would you think someone with a VFW logo on their bumper is a freemason?
ahorseelbowdeepinme
Because they have the Scottish rite above the Ford logo. The double eagle head and triangle on the chest is a dead giveaway
ahorseelbowdeepinme
SomeDetroitGuy
Why are you screenshotting someone lying about it? You can ABSOLUTELY have a vanity VFW Virginia plate: https://www.dmv.virginia.gov/vehicles/license-plates/search/veterans-foreign-wars

The Reichsadler plus 1488 Fourteen Words plate is not a coincidence. You're trying to excuse a plain as day Nazi.

Freemason logo. Triangle on the chest is the tell

It 100% is not. It's the VFW logo:

Are you talking about the emblem on the license plate ? cause we're talking about the emblem above the Ford logo

Thank you for posting! I’ve been looking for a while for it.

freemasons. not nazi.
SomeDetroitGuy
It absolutely isn't associated with the Freemasons. It's the VFW:
certainlynotaserialkiller
that is a completly different thing compared to what is above the ford logo. the thing in the truck is 100% a scottish rite from the freemasons.
sunnytater1
Has anyone checked if VF plates can be vanity plates? Maybe this dude just got the 1488th one of these.

thats a freemason rite. very not nazi if you look up what the nazis did to freemasons.

You mean this? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scottish_Rite The two-headed eagle has been used by so many groups.

That's a different symbol. Why are you apologizing for the Nazi with a vanity plate praising Hitler and a sticker that's explicitly a Nazi symbol?
