Elon forgot to tell his booster to not play today.

I don't want to veer into politics, I just wonder whether the Elon salute is a common one in USA?

Oh for fucks sake. He was saying “my heart goes out to you” and making the gesture. A dickwad on Twitter edited out him saying that. Hopefully the person who did it gets slammed with a massive defamation suit.

Dude knew exactly what he was doing. I generally think he was just trolling. But growing up in South Africa, you are well aware never to make that gesture

he really did not know what he was doing.
He is very socially ... poor.

You know how when you sign, your signature is always somewhat different? But you can still tell it’s your signature?

Not saying that was a Nazi salute, but I mean…

From all the gestures he could do, he had to do the hand down, fingers close, full send arm stretched like, come on!

What more do you expect? An America Über Alles?

Pretty crazy how America goes from gays to nazis like it’s some parkour shit

Zhang Yiming is worth 45 billion dollars and he almost got royaly fucked by a bunch of congressman. Tell me again how much a pile of money is everything that matters.

Okay, "money is everything" (or at least a very significant factor that gets more and more significant the more money you have).

Tell again how well that guy getting "royaly fucked" is going.

Trump's TikTok ban reversal comes after meeting megadonor who has stake in TikTok

Trump reversed his position on potentially banning TikTok ahead of an expected House vote this week on legislation that could lead to it being blocked in the U.S

abcnews.go.com

As Donald Trump reverses his position on potentially banning TikTok ahead of an expected House vote this week on legislation that could lead to it being blocked in the U.S., the former president has been rebuilding his relationship with a GOP megadonor who reportedly has a major financial stake in the popular social media platform.

Trump met with the donor, hedge fund manager Jeff Yass, earlier this month at a Club for Growth donor retreat in Palm Beach, Florida, on March 1.

The Club for Growth, a conservative political organization to which Yass has donated millions of dollars, has opposed anti-TikTok efforts.

China suggests it’s open to a US deal for TikTok after all

China has provided the strongest indication yet that it’s willing to secure a deal that will keep TikTok operating in the US.

au.news.yahoo.com

According to The Wall Street Journal, TikTok and ByteDance founder Zhang Yiming has a key contact that could pave the way for at least partial US ownership of TikTok in Elon Musk. He reportedly spoke with the Trump confidant in late 2024 after it looked more likely that the law would take effect. Zhang is said to have majority control over TikTok’s parent company through voting rights but he does not currently hold an executive position at ByteDance.

And it would've all been meaningless if Trump lost the election, or would he have bought the POTUS position with money too?

 

[Rentahamster]

The vast majority of our elected politicians like money, not just President Trump.

 

[Guilty_AI]

The vast majority of our elected politicians like money, not just President Trump.

And they like media control even more.

 

[Rentahamster]

Cool. I don't think that is a very good rebuttal for what I've said, and I don't think you've made a very good case about why most if not all billionaires aren't part of the establishment.

 

[IntentionalPun]

The funniest thing about this whole thing is Grimes vouching for him. Which means it’s quite possible he was paying people to make Diablo characters for him to show off to his girlfriend.

Just watch the news. If 90% of mainstream media attacks very specific billionaires over and over again with everything they got, they are not part of the estabilishment.

Remind me again which billionaires own our media companies, and which ones are friends and associates with the very people their media companies attack.

Lets see. Brian L Roberts. Jeff bewkes. Neither sermed to be on particularly friendly terms with said billionaires as they attacked them.

He forgot to mention sometimes these "big guys" are at odds with each other and have conflicting interests. If not, civil wars wouldn't exist. Oh wait, they just throw their coins at each other cause money is everything am i right?

You might have a philosophically salient point if the billionaires "fighting" each other actually resulted in a net loss of net worth. Most of them have only gotten richer. How mysterious and convenient.

Are you seriously trying to use the exceptions as evidence?

Now look at how many billionaires were created or increased their wealth in the last 20 years. Just google it dude, you'll find lists of them.

 

[T-0800]

So you believe Epstein is not guilty?

Huh? I think he is very guilty and I find it odd how some people just ignore the link between him and a certain someone who likes playing golf.

A yes, everything that goes against your narrative is an exception, all the hundreds of them.

[Toons]

he really did not know what he was doing.
He is very socially ... poor.

If he's socially poor then whys he trying to govern social policy ?

Enough of this guy. The first redditor.

Holy shit Imagine comparing carlin to a redditor. What in the actual fuck. This society is retarded

Germany of the 1930s and early 1940s. So literally retarded. But that's nothing new with Musk.

 

[Hudo]

Nah, just Germany

It's actually forbidden in Germany. You can get arrested if you do it in public (and/or you get beaten up, depending on the city).

 

[FewRope]

You can't be this genuinely stupid

So you're a corporate bootlicker, Disney slave, Elons cumpuppet and now a nazi apologist. You got a nice CV buddy.

 

[Radical_3d]

But last summer hit on Europe was:


IYKYK.

 

[EviLore]

ManaByte is correct, the audio of one of the initially viral clips is edited to misrepresent the context. Elon says “my heart goes out to you” in the real footage as he performs the…awkward gesture.

The ADL doesn’t see it intended as a Nazi salute.

 

[light2x]

Im gonna need more popcorn

 

[Hudo]

But last summer hit on Europe was:

Was it? At least it wasn't in my region. But maybe it's an online thing? I dunno. The last time I heard GiGi D'Agostino was in the early 2000s or so.

 

[Shrap]

Oh for fucks sake. He was saying “my heart goes out to you” and making the gesture. A dickwad on Twitter edited out him saying that. Hopefully the person who did it gets slammed with a massive defamation suit.

There is some real gusto behind that "gesture".

Maybe this was his way of getting people off his back about faking the gaming cred.

 

[GymWolf]

Grimes is almost as much as a weirdo as elon.

Last summer? This was an hit in italy like 15-20 years ago when gigi d'agostino was the shit.

 

[a'la mode]

There is some real gusto behind that "gesture".

I mean, it's just a completely irrelevant little detail that Elon's grandparents were members of the Nazi Party of Canada who emigrated to South Africa because they admired Hitler and Nazi Germany, and found the rule and recently implemented policy of apartheid by the Afrikaner white supremacist National Party appealing. While Elon's daddy might have mentioned in an interview that extreme politics were at the core of family history, I'm sure that little Elon spending his formative years around that kind of people and in that kind of environment could've surely not have shaped him in any way. I'm confident that this awkward gesture was just that, a complete coincidence!

 

[Tams]

Kinda scary that he has the ability to just leak someone's private twitter DMs like that.
I'm glad I never used Twitter. I don't trust Elon at all.

I was never under the impression that Twitter DMs were secure or truly private. Just messages with limited sharing.

I'd never share anything truly private or confidential over Twitter DMs. Not because I don't trust them, but because they aren't for that.

 

[Tams]

It's actually forbidden in Germany. You can get arrested if you do it in public (and/or you get beaten up, depending on the city).

Yeah, but you can also be arrested for calling someone an 'idiot' in Germany. Not even on defamation charges, which are harsher.

 

[PianistaMacabro]

And yesterday he was having fun being a Nazi.....
