Did he have a choice in this matter? He was alsof arrested nu the gestapo right? Musk has much more agency and he still acts like a cryptofascist edgelord which is not what anyone wants I think?
Von Braun’s actions directly resulted in around 30,000 civilian deaths. He had a choice the entire way through. Being apologetic toward him but condemning Elon for autistic derping is wild.

I feel any leaning towards it just him being autistic and being a bit derpy on occasion left the table an hour before this thread was even made :messenger_tears_of_joy:

We're in cuckoo land now. Next stop, Trump's secret Arctic Nazi base..

It's going to be a great four years.
Rumours are that Hitler was autistic too. Elon’s autism doesn’t really make a strong case for how and why he made the gesture. I’m pretty sure he is very much aware of its meaning and history.

People dropping like flies in this thread. The title alone is like something someone would post on old twitter.

Do people genuinely believe moments before taking the mic Elon twirled his moustache and thought "ahahaha now is the time! Let us begin mein orange Fuhrer! ahahaha" and started dishing out nazi salutes?

Literally living in a fascist dictatorship! When will the madness end! omg!

Idiots.

Might have been a bit more than autism going on there my good man :messenger_tears_of_joy:


Surprised he didn't OD, he looks charged on those hard drugs.

I don't think he is a Nazi, but I don't think that gesture was on accident either.

It was just a chest bump and acknowledgment.

What a bunch of cuckoos.

I mean Elon is also full of himself, wth he cares about some ancient nazis?
This sub is clearky right wing but defending this shit is next level delusional. He grew up in apartheid Africa, he is a racist cunt who now has the power to show it in public. Not all right wingers are racist but most of you certainly like to defend them.

Some of the smartest can fail completely in other areas. People on the spectrum are especially known for it. One thing I know about Tourettes is the more you suppress an urge, the more likely you are to burst. Imagine people calling you a piece of shit for your incidents when you don't mean it. I'm sure it's happened. You know Sweet Anita? They went after her, they can go after you

Somehow I've avoided ever doing anything like this to even be mistaken for something like a nazi salute.

But then again, even if I hadn't, I also don't have a long pattern of behavior and comments that would give people any semblance of reason to think I could be a nazi supporter. Elon does not.

Funny that.

The most armed nation on earth, where the vast majority, you know, don't actually like Nazis.. might be okay. No matter how many NASA took in.

I think they'll be fine.

And this really is a case of a autistic bloke getting over excited. If you'd actually paid attention to his speech at the pre inauguration then you'd know it gets a bit much for him..



I'm sure you'd all keep composure whilst being autistic in front of the watching world :messenger_tears_of_joy:

And now it's even on the BBC, claiming it IS a nazi salute by dickheads in column

What the fuck are we actually doing here. This is insane.
 
what makes you think Ego Elon identifies himself as nazi?

nazi is boring relic, dont be over sensitive.
I don’t know if he does. I know he has a history of childish trolling, and I know he interacts with known Nazis online, and I know he was chastised numerous times for racist rhetoric to the point where he had to go to the death camps and be shown to be sympathetic to help his image.

It’s a fucking Nazi salute. I’m not talking about sensitivity, I’m talking about what he did.

I've watch the whole video. And yup, it was a Nazi salut, no doubt. And he made it twice. Who says otherwise is blinded by politics.

That would therefore mean the ADL are blinded by politics then, because they've said it was not a Nazi salute.

I've honestly not see any evidence that Musk is a racist.
 
That's a weak argument. He did a Nazi salute in an event watched by the world. It's there, it happened and he needs to face the consequences. Not criticizing him for it, is normalizing the Heil Hitler salute.
It's kind of depressing how this place is trying to down talk this behavior. Resorting to "whataboutism"etc. Meh.
Said it before, some of GAF seems addicted to slurping Elon's schlong for some weird reason.

It’s hard to say what the intent is here. I don’t think it means he is necessarily a Nazi, given he’s actions in the past greatly contradict that of someone who identifies as one. Maybe he is trolling? Maybe he lost a bet? Maybe he lost he’s mind? But the gesture is offensive to a lot of people, for obvious reasons, this isn’t really one of those situations where people are being overly sensitive.

The movements from the beginning are completely different. Hand flat over the heart(Elon) verses hand sideways. Not to mention more of a lunge at the end.
Small discrepancies in hand placement and slight orientation doesn’t change the gesture.

I see it as a air high-5.

Next thing the cuckoos will look out for illuminati signals

 
And some seem to skyscream without any real reason. SWIDT?
Yeah, both are screaming.

Honestly, fuck both sides, but this was pretty clear, even to my independent ass imo.

Biased maybe cause my grandpa on my mom's side fought in Europe (he was at Normandy, even). But fuck Nazis. I can appreciate their ship design because I'm a naval buff, but it should be legal to punch out Nazis, and anyone who does the salute but tries to act like "just joking bro".

And honestly? That shouldn't even be considered a political stance. It should be a basic American stance.

I have proof Elon did a nazi salute because we have video.
Are you honestly asking for proof of Elon being a troll?
The bolded part in the post you quoted. Of course, you're talking out of your ass and are just deflecting.

He said “from my heart” because he’s a troll and he told his mates he’s gonna get away with doing a Nazi salute for the lulz.
The last part. You have any proof of that?
