If this was a unique instance of a potential Nazi dogwhistle I'd say let's give them the benefit of the doubt, and consider it a mistake. After all, who of us has never ever fat-fingered some typing and accidentally pressed a letter twice?
But the thing is, this is like, the hundredth Nazi dogwhistle around the orange turdsack to happen "accidentally" in the past few years. From the MyPillow 14.88 pricing, Kegbreath's very obvious negative space 88 tattoo, to multiple people close to the admin just randomly throwing Nazi salutes, etc., and that's not even counting the literal Nazi marches waving Nazi and MAGA flags together...
Should just show the original, genuine photo (which you can see from another comment from a snopes link); the added L and crimes part just make the real SS thing look faked.

Or it's a Nazi dogwhistle disguised as a mistake. Hard to tell.

I'd guess it's still ai generated in that someone asked an ai to print their labels.

Maybe they just thought it was very funny. Which does not mean that they are not dumb.

Should it be spelled crimess?

It's as real as that deported guy's MS-13 tattoo from a couple of years ago. Oh wait, that was only a few months ago.
