That’s because back the blue is just a more polite way to say the 14 words

Wait I don't get this one. What's the 14 words? I'm an elder millennial and sometimes I miss the new slang.

Edit thanks for the quick answers.

I remember seeing some wild story in 2020 about someone getting banned from some game because their name was something like corona1488 but corona was their last name and Jan 4th 1988 was their birthday. I think they were able to get it fixed and maybe they changed their in game name too.

I don't remember the exact words off the top of my head and too lazy to look it up, but it's a neonazi dog whistle. Something about 'protecting the future of the white children'

It's not even a dog whistle. It's deafening.

It's a Nazi thing I am pretty sure

The 14 words part Is adequately explained below, but in case you are unfamiliar as well, often 14 will be used in conjunction with the number 88 as well for HH or Heil Hitler.

You are not too old, you are just not hanging around the right people.

These 14 words don't really have the "punchy" characteristic I'd expect from a slogan.

Fake Nazi graffiti

Yeah, and they only remembered 11 words (poorly). I don't expect more from Nazi vandals, which is why I drew it that way.

I’m also an elder millennial and I learned about it from the incredible podcast “Weird Little Guys”. I cannot recommend it enough. Such a good show.

I listen to a lot of their shows, and I think “Weird Little Guys” is the best of them. And I just love “Cool People Who Did Cool Stuff”. But Molly Conger is just so good. The music is perfect, the narration is good, the stories… umm suck but they are important to know about, it is funny, I’ve cried multiple times, etc. “Weird Little Guys” just is so fucking good.
