MyPillow Faces Outcry Over Price Linked to Hate

Mike Lindell's MyPillow has faced significant backlash after advertising pillows at a price of $14.88, a number widely recognized as a symbol among white supremacist groups. The '14' references the '14 Words' slogan, while '88' stands for 'Heil Hitler,' raising alarms and accusations of insensitivity or complicity with extremist ideologies. Despite the controversy, the posts promoting the discount remained available on various social media platforms, drawing both condemnation and support from far-right users. Historians and critics suggest that Lindell may not be aware of the implications of the price, yet the marketing raises troubling questions about the brand's associations. Lindell, known for his conspiracy theories and previous legal troubles, has not commented on the situation, with the backlash reigniting discussions about his controversial history. The incident underscores the fine line between marketing strategies and extremist messaging in today's socio-political climate.
