I’m sitting behind a California plate that reads “88 RISE”. Is that…?
88 is heil hitler
88 also symbolizes fortune and good luck in Chinese culture, and is often used to sign off in Chinese language chats.
And the swastika used to be a Buddhist simbol, your point?
Not used to be. Still are. Symbols can represent a lot of things, and it's an ignorant person to assume that they MUST represent the bad one.
That's exactly what the Nazi's say. These two lighting bolts? It's nothing bro! I just like the number 88! 14 is my lucky number! Etc etc
Could be 88 Rising. The asian music production company that has some great Asian artists.
I'm gonna go ahead and guess nobody got a vanity plate about an Asian music production company unless they own that company.
From Wikipedia:
Headquartered in New York City, the company also has offices in Los Angeles and Shanghai.
So it could be a company car.
With an Indiana plate? Sure lots of traveling fleet vehicles are registered in Indiana, but I've not seen office cars that largely remain local registered in Indiana
