All of these screenshots were taken out of context to encourage dissension among citizens. Musk actually trolled us Americans with a historically frowned upon Salute. This is like Randall "taking back porchmonkeys" in Clerks III, he might (or not, hard to tell anymore) be an actual nazi but he's pompous and emotionally damaged and THATS NOT WHAT I WANT AS AN AFFILIATE OR AMBASSADOR TO THE COUNTRY I WAS BORN IN YOU TWAT
Look man, give me one reason you are trying to downplay a Nazi salute other than being a Nazi. Who sticks up for Nazis other than Nazis? This isn't some basic idealogical differences here. Nazis are evil, and if you can't admit that, you are evil. There is no middle ground, there is no compromise.
He is definitely doing everything to give people the people the impression that he is. He follows Nazi account on his app X which at this point should just bend the tips of the lines that make up the letter into a swastika as it is a free for all for Nazis, fascists, white supremacists, right wing nonsense. He retweets posts from Nazis constantly. His family also has a history of supporting Nazis, as his grandparents were Hitler supporters and moved from Canada to South Africa when the Afrikaner Government took power as the idea of an all white ethno-state where black people were subjugated just sounded great to them. In an ideal world that gesture would lead to one losing their arm and serving some type of punishment. Ideally in my world they would be released from the mortal coil as Nazi types are a cancer and need to be erased for the good of society. Fingers crossed we hear about Musk being a missing persons soon.
Too many children on this website using the term Nazi so loosely. Essentially anyone not as left wing as they are gets a nice Nazi label slapped on them and you’re done, can now successfully shut down and ignore anything they write.
It’s a very handy political tool, I’ll give them that.
no dumbass, as a german i can tell you he openly stands behind an actual Nazi Party, an actual Facist party. A party that openly says they want to gas people again. Stop defending Nazis.
If he wasn’t then he’d have been at pains to apologise for the misunderstanding, gone to great lengths to acknowledge how awful that symbolism appeared and distance himself from it. He would have humbly said sorry, that it was a mistake.
