    step off the gas. nicknames and numbers can have entirely different cultural contexts.

    for me, i’ve never seen “juice” used to refer to jews, nor “88” being used to refer to nazis, and i’ve been on the internet a long time.

    when i see “juice”, the first thing i think of is the song by lizzo. “88” is used as a replacement for “bye bye” in cantonese lingo.

    plenty of usernames are just random word + year of birth. stop overanalyzing it and chill.
