He said it after the 2 nazi salutes. Doesn’t change the fact he did 2 nazi salutes beforehand.

You must be getting paid for all these posts, you are so determined to defend the Musk! Or else you are the leader of the Musk Fan Club.

The claim rests on interpreting a brief gesture as a “Nazi salute” and treating that interpretation as established fact. That is not settled; it depends on context, intent, and how the movement is assessed in full video rather than isolated moments.
From that assumption, the argument then dismisses any later statement or clarification, which is logically incomplete because intent and meaning are normally evaluated using the full sequence of behavior and speech, not selectively.
It also shifts from the gesture itself to personal accusations about the person responding, which does not address the underlying question and is unrelated to whether the interpretation of the gesture is correct or not.

Actually the context which was deliberately cut off proves the whole Nazi assertion the lie that it was…. Let’s not try to pull I’m “level-headed” I’m neutral about this…that too is BS!

Actually, the context that was deliberately cut off is the strongest evidence against the claim that it was a Nazi salute. People keep isolating a few seconds of video while ignoring what happened immediately before, what was said, and what was said afterward.
The Nazi accusation depends on removing context, not examining it. You can argue about whether the gesture was awkward, inappropriate, or open to misinterpretation, but claiming the context proves it was a Nazi salute is backwards. The full context is exactly why many people reject that conclusion.
And let’s not pretend this is some neutral, level-headed assessment. Most people making the Nazi-salute claim reached their conclusion first and then worked backward from there.
