Nazis have been appropriating numbers like 88 to dogwhistle to their followers "Hey, I'm making a public apology for my stockholders, but fingers crossed for stringing up all the minorities once we have our guys in the Supreme Court, winkwink nudgenudge." Don't play dumb.

I’m aware and fuck them for being nazis indeed

With that said IMHO the left can also use codes and numbers. Too many cops in the area? Did they figure out what ACAB means? 1312. Easy

Everyone does that. It's not a nazi thing.

It just currently (and historically) behooves nazis to do it as much as possible because it helps them recruit to their counter-culture movement.
