      Have you seen the video? He did an unmistakable Nazi salute to the crowd, then turned around and did the same Nazi salute towards the USA flag. This was as Sieg heil as Nazi salutes come.

        In no time ever has a Nazi gripped their heart like that before reaching out their hand. I just went through countless videos of fucking Nazis to confirm this. Stop spreading misinformation /disinformation

          So according to you, Elon Musk has his heart in his upper left side longue, close to his left shoulder. Sounds like one special kind of human.

          And if that’s just waving, then why according to you did he wave to the American flag? Is that just how south-africans salute the usa flag, by “waving” at it?

          And I also call bullshit on the claim of having watched countless videos. If you had, then you had seen a much greater variety of Nazi salutes. Nazis as they got older and/or higher in the Nazi hierarchy, they became sloppier with the Nazi salutes. Sometimes the mind is willing, but the body says no.

            Nothing I say to explain further why it isn’t a Nazi salute won’t matter. It’s evident your bias will cloud any rational discourse.

              I still would love to hear your explanation of why he is “waving” at the American flag.

          So a Nazi salute has to be totally historically accurate for you to see it for what it is, but you can “give your heart” to an audience with a hand raised and downturned and you have no issue with that explanation? If you give, your hand is generally upturned. That is the gesture. Golly gosh I wonder why he did it that way instead 🤔🤔🤔 total mystery.

          What the hell are you on about?

          Elon Musk does an unmistakable Nazi salute, you claim he was just “waving”, despite there not even having been a waving motion, just the one swing from left shoulder to full extended right arm, which is a textbook Nazi salute. And now you come with whataboutism about Hamas and I don’t even know what’s the point of it.

          What kind of troll are you?

      If this kind of greeting is so much in your standard repertoire that you just accidentally without thinking go for it in such a moment… Then it is not the “stupid PC police trying to claim everything is offensive”. It is offensive. Which normal person does that?

      Edit: I mean, seriously, look at this

          Nice gaslight attempt.

          Context matters. This is a man futzing around with the far right in Germany, specifically, right now. The movement made is sharp, exact. It is what it looks like it is.

              No, but he does the nazi salute.

          Never trust someone with two first names. Been following that advice my entire life and I’ve yet to find an exception, they’re always a piece of shit and usually prove that very quickly.

      remember guys, it’s only a nazi if they do a nazi salute while saying “heil hitler I’m a nazi kill all jews and other minorities” just like it’s only a racist if they’re burning a cross and yelling the hard R and saying “I’m a racist”, but only if they do it all at the same time. 2 out of 3 doesnt qualify.

                  Being proud of things you had nothing to do with is incredibly stupid. I’m happy to be here, yes, but what the fuck should I be proud of? I didn’t do it myself. And the rest of your message just shows how clueless you are of everything outside of your hate bubble. So, no, you won’t get to anger me.

              Yes. At best, he is an apologist for Israel/Zionism which does not represent Jewish people as a whole. Zionists hated Holocaust victims and were Nazi collaborators.

              Why would I need to prove something I didn’t say?

              You can do a Nazi salute without wanting to exterminate all Jews. Learn some nuance.

      He did the salute. And talked about the Great Replacement Theory. And endorsed the fucking AfD. And named himself Kekius Maximus.

          Edit: I appreciate the vote count and the moderators leaving my comments up. I want to dial it back though. I’ve eaten my annual allotment of troll bait and I want to dial back my rage at stupidity.

          Who knows what someone is going through any given day. I was less kind than usual bc I’m stressed out like everyone is, so maybe so is this other person. I’m bowing out and saving my susceptibility to rage bait for actual Nazis.
