am i blind or is there no 88 or hh in the linked image
There's none. OP alleged in a comment that September 18th being listed twice meant that the "8" and "h" from "18th" could be selectively isolated to portray 88 and hh.
The reality is that they just have 2 different events on that day in a long list of events sorted by upcoming. They have several days with multiple events listed and thus duplicate dates.
I mean it’s just the presentation alongside other things. The date parts are far less important or obvious, just convenient alongside the obvious lightning bolts
All the event listings follow the same format:
I think it's pretty unreasonable to assume a designer should alter the alignment or style of a single date in a list of uniform layouts just to avoid the most tenuous possibility of misinterpretation as a dog whistle--especially when doing so would actually call attention to the date and would look like a mistake.
Scheduling is not Nazi shit, everyone schedules.
Scroll like 200px and suddenly the thing you're upset about in isolation actually makes sense.
Do you spend your time browsing tour dates to see if an artist has 2 events on their tour that have an "8" in the date?
Charlie Kirk was a Nazi, now he's a good Nazi. We know that from his professed ideologies, not because he went on tour and filled his spots with speaking engagements.
No, if you read what I wrote in the body of the post you’d see I’m only pointing it out because it is present alongside stuff that is actually dog whistly which in turn makes it look suspect. It’s otherwise benign
