Mike Lindell, the controversial founder of MyPillow and vocal ally to Donald Trump, is claiming ignorance over the neo-Nazi symbolism in his pillow prices.

Lindell’s pillow company, which he founded in 2009, is currently offering customers the “Standard Classic MyPillow” for $14.88 reduced from $49.98.

But the discount has got critics pointing out a popular neo-Nazi symbol lurking behind the price.

The numbers 14 and 88 are two popular white supremacist numeric symbols, according to the Anti-Defamation League.

The first is a nod to the “14 words” slogan, “We must secure the existence of our people and a future for white children,” coined by David Lane – a member of the white supremacist terrorist group known as The Order.

Meanwhile, 88 is a common code meaning “Heil Hitler”, because H is the eighth letter in the alphabet.

    I mean im not saying it cant be politcal dog whistle. But there would need to be more evidence to make a conclusion. Such as mike lindel saying somthing racist or somthing that reinforces him being a white nationalist Nazi. Saying hes a racist purely off of a product price is the equivalent of the pet eating ohio comments. Both lack evidence and credibility to my knowlage.

      Jfc, you Nazi apologists are fucking wild, comparing a white supremacist openly broadcasting a Nazi dog whistle, to a bunch of immigrants who literally did nothing to no one but were still made a target for violence by those same white supremacists for the sin of existing while being Black is vile beyond belief.

      You should be ashamed of yourself.

        Buddy i was comparing them for as they both lack real basis. And im not a nazi or a racist im simply being unbiased. And for added contex i honestly think people that judge people by the color of there skin are FUCKING stupid. Like seriously, ITS A FUCKING COLOR congrats lobotmites you judged a book by its cover and over generalized based on somthing by chance.

        And i do not appreciate lumping be in with lobotomites, im fine if you disagree with my oppions and i appreciate different oppions. I think the worst world to live in is the one where its just circle jerking. And mental imbreeding of ideas.
