Sometimes people put the year they were born in their username like janedoe1969. Sometimes people abbreviate the year to the last 2 digits like janedoe69. Sometimes 2 digit numbers mean something else like 69 or 88. Sometimes people use the non year meaning as an indicator like whitedaddy88. Sometimes people don’t immediately recognize the alternative meaning of a number and accidentally use a dog whistle in their username. Sometimes people don’t want to be confused as being a Nazi because of an innocent mistake they made on a forum years ago. Sometimes they use that negative experience as an opportunity for a meta referential joke.
