We are almost 80 years to the date that Auschwitz was liberated. Can ye just not defend someone making nazi salutes.

It wasn’t a Nazi salute. It was whatever it’s called where you tap on your heart and then “send it out” to your homies kinda thing. The twist here is that Elon, among his many attributes, is a total dweeb and did it awkwardly.

Which is ironic because, if you’ve ever read “The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich,” you’ll know almost all the top Nazis were awkward weirdos. So….

I wouldn't go THAT far but people are so willing to give their "team" the benefit of the doubt on both sides... There's nuance but yeah. Some guys on here really think Musk doesn't know what he's doing here. He did it twice and didn't say "my heart goes out to you" during the action. It sounded almost like an afterthought
 
This argument is so fucking ridiculous it's not even funny. It's easy to find out-of-context photos of people extending their right arms to the sky. No one is arguing otherwise.

What is NOT easy to find is fucking this:




Now compare this to the Nazi Salute being performed by actual neo-nazi's last year:

Unbury your heads out of the fucking sand.

My heart goes out to you.

Obviously I'm not going to try to defend that idiot or his salute, fuck him, but what I also found hilarious is just how cucked the people on soy sky are

He doesn't have the - wait for it - HONOR of being Jewish.

It's sad how on the right the idiots worship retards like Musk and on the left people honestly write (and like, and promote) bullshit like this. Obviously one thing is way worse than the other, but two things can suck at once.

He thinks Hitler is a communist. He supports far right parties such as the AfD in Germany and the likes of Farage and Tommy Robinson in tge UK. He supported antisemitic tweets in 2023. Nazi salute today.

It's all a coincidence

Those look nothing alike. Lol
 
It's sloppy and if he was doing it, I'd hope he would do it right. That said, I'm glad the "everything's racist" crowd has no weight anymore.
I’ll preface this by again saying I don’t think he’s a Nazi, just a retarded edgelord.

He did a Nazi salute. There’s no point trying to fob it off as ‘throwing his heart’ or some bullshit.

Everyone knows what a Nazi salute looks like, including him. And that’s what it was.

Well if he was doing it, he did it sloppily and in disgrace. That said, African Americans can't be Nazis. Wait... *transmission coming in* Oh I've just learned that the left will call even Jews Nazis if they don't like them.

That really rubbed me the wrong way when some did that. I get it .. images of children without limbs and covered in blood is never a good thing to see. There IS apartheid in Israel where even the few Palestinians IN Israel are treated like black people were here in the first 70 years of the 20th century... Or how they were in South Africa until deKlerk and Mandela (recently freed from unjust imprisonment) made changes and the ANC gained power.

But that's neither here nor there and completely off topic... And I don't want to get into another argument about that.

That was a Nazi salute he did. Especially seeing the position of his fingers.
