WTF

Super weird you don't post videos of any of those other folks like there's a video/gif of Elon. It's not because someone captured a 1 second frame of someone waving at the crowd out of context to try to justify a literal fucking sig heil salute, is it?

Yo are a disingenuous conservative shit-troll. If you look at the videos of these stills you see that only elon was doing a sig heil.

Now do a video comparison.

Despite the Dem party having their own problems with fascism, this proves nothing. The video during shows him exactly copying the Hitlergruess, unlike someone hailing a taxi or waving to the crowd. Please don't defend this douche-bag. He is not any sort of rebel rising up to defeat the American Empire, he is part of the American Empire.

Wait, are we allowed to call them Nazis yet? Or is it still unnecessary vitriol?

My grandfather used to kill Nazis. Seems like history is repeating itself.

Twice.

Yeah, this was the first time I saw it in motion. How anyone could try to spin this as anything else is wild. We're to the part in 1984 where we're told to reject the evidence of our eyes and ears...

Fuck the ADL

I was on the fence about them for past shenanigans but this is the final nail in the coffin. My friends are now telling me that musk did not, in fact do a Nazi salute because his fingers weren't pointed the right way

the ADL is a zionist organization that supports genocide. they're not bootlickers. they're the sole of the boot itself.

Just when I thought the ADL couldn't be anymore useless, here's REAL Anti-Semitism and they're not doing anything about it.

You guys are lucky to have AOC. I'm a non-American that only knows her from memes and screenshots like this but I'm a fan. Especially compared to all the other dead fish.

It wouldn't be a delicate situation if ONE GROUP WASN'T DOING NAZI SHIT

::: spoiler the ADL Anti-Defamation League, a Jewish non-governmental organization based in the USA :::
... will now be known as the "Advanced Defamations League"

Good for AOC, but I honestly fear for her safety in the coming years. I hope she can stay safe.

Same ADL that says anti-genocide protests are categorically foreign agents funded by Iran and Hamas.

Are their last words going to be "see? You were overreacting." right before someone pushes a button on their gas chamber?

Or have they already booked their tickets to some recently-confiscated house in the West Bank?

these gas lights aren't even lit. why are you making such a big deal?

this is obviously sarcasm

Because he made it with the expression of a 16 year old in furious heat.

Well, the nazis didn't have their cum-face on while doing it.

To be fair, the SS had drip. Hugo Boss leather trenchcoats... They looked good while being the absolute worst human beings in modern history.

I think it was the biting lips.

The nazi salute is pretty cool, not the meaning though.

One might be associated to a minor ethnic group looking for representation because they never had anything.

The other is associated to a fascist regime that destroyed the world and killed millions.

They do claim that they're nOt lIkE fOx nEwS aNyMoRe, though.

Wait, what?

I think that's why they had it indoors. Remove the opportunity for the people to dissent in the moment.

Exactly this. People still don't seem to grasp it, but they will soon. This is the end game. No need to pretend anymore, they got the thing they've been working towards for decades.

My only hope is that the GOP splinters over this kind of shit and destroys itself. But I'm not holding my breath.

How can anyone deny it now?

Easy. Bad faith.

It's called post-truth and gaslighting in some developments of the phenomenon. I think this is, among other things, an experiment coming from the Donald administration.

So he literally turns around and does it a 2nd time.

Yup.

Just like Nazis did. Once to the crowd. Then turn around and once to the Fuhrer, ranking officer at the event, or Nazi flag.

He'll claim that the gesture went along with his words of his heart going out to people.

Press X to doubt.

Same. Already? Couldn't wait a single day?

And there are people desperately trying to say he wasn't doing a nazi salute. I refuse to let someone tell me I'm not seeing what's right in front of my eyes.

I fear it's not going to stop.

When Trump dies another, less stupid more insidious version will arise.

I'm going to take extra good care of my health in the hopes that if I outlive him this will be on my bucket list.

Knowing I’ll be able to piss on his grave and Trumps grave keeps me going.

A lot of people in fascist countries don't get to live long enough to piss on the fascist leader's grave.

If he has any sense that overcomes his pride, he should be grateful that someone else is taking some flak for him.

How is this idiot so fucking dumb.

I'll have uhh... A stale meme And projection

My, feeling brave today are we

Yep, Hitler was a communist after all. (/s)

I can't even express in words how fucking stupid and cringe this guy is... That comic is some shit I would have found clever when I was 12 years old and my understanding of politics was 100% shaped by the Fox News that was constantly playing in my house. Imagine being a full-formed adult human, and thinking this was some kind of deep thought.

He says he was doing the Roman salute, but that’s exactly where the nazis got it so…

Spot on. We all know exactly what we saw. But...

“This is just a distraction from [the class war / taxes / Russia / China / the Koreas / India / ... ]!”

“Allegedly, he seemingly did a gesture that resembles a fascist salute. He could've been having a heart attack and pointing at a paramedic. You don't know.”

“It’s a tic. He’s had it since he was a child. I read about it on this random screenshot of a news article from 2018.”

“The Roman Salute, as it is known amongst historians, can be seen in many statues. Here’s a link to one. Things have history, Alex. God. Not everything is nazis.”

“So his views are a little extreme. Most people would argue they’re vile. I certainly don’t agree with them, but people. Please. Civility and decorum must rule. I’d fight for his right to blahblahblah..."

"I'm sorry; we can't hear you over our Economic Anxiety. Groceries are too expensive and people are homeless! That's why we elected nazis. Please be more understanding of our extra special circumstances and ignorance."

"It's legal to do that in the USofA. Where is it not legal? Germany? Interesting! Gosh their freezepeach laws are a bit restrictive, eh? Controlling how we move our bodies? Sounds like something a nazi would want."

And on. And if you engage with it, they'll just turn on some kind of AI bot thingy to continue the "conversation," taking up even more space online.

Im not certain that they still need to gaslight.

This is fuckin wild.

People keep asking when the Apartheid Manchild turned this way. I maintain that he was always this way and is now just comfortable expressing it. But I think, too, the increasingly erratic behaviour has a cause.

Look up the list of symptoms of ketamine abuse.

Now look up the increasingly bizarre behaviour of the Apartheid Manchild.

There are intriguing parallels. Right down to the paranoia.

White Pow(d)er

One doesn't excuse the other.

Him and Bezos for sure were on something.

Who cares?

On the bright side, if we're remarking on history's propensity for repetition, consider how much the odds have just gone up that Elon's personal timeline now ends doused in gasoline and set alight in a ditch, like a pasty, doughy little pile of garbage.

I wonder how many people are left of the original musk groupies that thought musk was so cool and was going to save the world.

Do you still believe? Are you still that stupid?

Nope.

Deported? Nazi stuff is Luigi territory.

Moral absolutes are correct in case of Nazis. Death is the only correct moral choice. With enough evidence, sentence should be carried out by anyone able, with enough evidence.

Just keep it tightly regulated, obvz. But Nazis were the real pollutant to the gene pool the whole time.

I still like the idea of using them for science until they die though. Only way to get that human testing done.

Currently seems to be explaining it away as not a nazi salute, pretty sure the only worse outcome would be yeah it was we don't care. Which is what the actual nazis are going with but not the more mainstream view, yet.

If its going to go that way I hope we can get to the point of the nazis being shot in the head faster than last time.

We’re through the cringing glass here, people.

Yeah, X is sort of his Dearborn Independent. Only that never became state-controlled media the way X now has with Musk becoming part of the state.

Lack of hope seems to be what depressed the vote turnout in the first place. What a vicious cycle.

Imagine how minimally functional your brain has to be to think this is a blatant sieg heil.

Context matters.

Are fox, newsmaxxx, and oan covering it as much as they should? Or are they mentioning it once at an off time so they can say “see we covered it” and then never mentioning it when people are actually watching?

To be clear, I fully agree with this statement.

Buuuuuut....as I'm sure you already know, the entire US space capability was thanks to Nazis who were brought in after the war so that their scientific efforts could be used by "the good guys". They, unsurprisingly, were still Nazis. America has a long history of working with/being run by Nazis, White Supremacists, and just general bigots and racists.

He can't wear his kid as a human shield at all times.
