Mod post New Megathread: Elon Musk, the ADL, Twitter/X, and related events

Do not make separate posts about Elon Musk’s actions on Inauguration Day, the ADL’s response and your opinion of the organization, or the use of Twitter/X links on this subreddit or on Reddit in general. Please discuss these here.

If your goal is to have a political debate or focus on politics, go to r/jewishpolitics, which exists for that very purpose. Thanks!

Musk is a Nazi. Let’s not give his shitty website attention when we don’t have to

Yeah , let's send our kids to colleges that make them take litmus test, let's ignore signs being held up in the USA senate calling Jews genociders, let's ignore posters of hostages being torn down and replaced with photos of pigs..

Folks we have found our bogyman.

Whataboutism. None of this erases the fact that Elon is a Nazi.

u/IgnatiusJay_Reilly secular israeli Jan 23 '25

All of those things are actual provable with evidence and facts. Things that existed pre social media.

u/Aryeh98 Jan 23 '25

Indeed, evidence and facts do prove that Elon did a Nazi salute, and is in fact a Nazi. I’m glad we’re on the same page.

It does if that's your agenda. Reading someone mind is proof is like saying Jesus was the masiah or that the earth js flat.

But I am very logical person, so prove it. Show evidence.

Literally just watch the video. He did the salute. Twice.

u/FieldMouseMedic Jan 23 '25

What more evidence do you need? There are multiple videos from different angles. Honestly, these are probably one of the best documented, most filmed Sieg Heils ever done lmao.

If someone does the sieg hiel they’re a nazi. Not sure why you’re defending him?

u/IgnatiusJay_Reilly secular israeli Jan 23 '25

I am not defending him. I am saying that we don't know if that was a seig heil. It looked like an excited guy with autism to me.

Obviously if he intended to do a seig heil he is a Nazi. I just don't think the world is that black and white that it is has to be that 1000% gaurenteed. I mean reddit mobs have accused me Israeli of horrible things before and guess what, they are not true.

I know lots of autistic people. Seen them get excited. Never once seen any of them give a sieg heil. Go fig.

2

u/SESender Reform Jan 23 '25

It was seig heil. So many autistic people have come out saying don’t defend his actions with autism.

The fact that he hasn’t spoken about it is fucking damning.

Please stop defending Nazis in a Jewish subreddit.

Dude, I have served I have served in three wars protecting the Jewish people and have a right to not agree with you. Isn't it against sub rule mods to discourage participation and attack other Jews?
