International Elon Musk Sieg Heiling during his speech

[Bob Gray]

He's definitely doing a nazi salute. The question is did he mean to. I'm on the he didn't and he's just a spaz side of the argument.

I mean, its not really the kind of thing you do "by accident". Even assuming you could, it's a pretty sloppy nazi salute.

it definitely has social ineptitudes and awkwardness as a primary characteristic, but i never defined it as that. the guy i was replying to did.

Fair enough but socially inept and awkward fits Elon to a tee.

I can't quite get my head around watching it and thinking it doesn't at least very much look like one.

I mean it's very similar and even when I saw it I instanty knew people were gonna immediately latch onto it and create a bunch of drama.

But even with the likeness it made a poor salute and any Nazi making a salute like probably would have had kitchen duty. Anyone who actually believes Elon Musk purposely made a white power salute when he said "my heart goes out to you" is an absolute dunce.

I agree it's not logical that he did it intentionally but I'm just struggling with people acting like it's strange that people noticed it and it's just a normal thing.

You noticed it so no issues.

 

[Takes Two To Tango]

That was very awkward.

a fascist seemingly performing a known fascist salute was completely unintentionally. It could have happened to anyone.

 

[Fox by the Sea]

Solid trolling from Musk. It's a power move.

You have to give credit where credit is due. Only musk could make doing a nazi salute in public (in a country that fought them no less) look even more retarded then it already was.

 

[ICHEERTHEBULL]

The best part is it wasn't even Trump doing it. Trump may keep him around just so the media clutches their pearls every time he does or says something stupid.

Next four years should be fun.

Good point. The average social misfit with brain damage looks like Marlon Brando in comparison to that loon.

Actual neo Nazis on stormfront are probably posting “for fuck sake we need a new gesture. This just looks retarded as fuck now”

 

[HOLA]

For the leftists saying it was a Nazi salute, I have to ask, genuinely, do you actually believe that it was an actual salute, or is it a convenient way to insult someone that you don’t like?

 

[Oddmonster]

Its going to be a long four years if you believe every video thst comes out....

Why wouldnt you dbl check?

Edit to clarify ( the video isnt fake ) just the insinuation

He is literally copying Hitler -

That's not a Nazi salute. Angle is all wrong.

You're all really reaching...

There's nothing "convenient" about it, there's no justification or misconstruing what he was trying to do. There's no common salute that looks like that, and with how much Elon has been trolling people, I'm sure he did it because he thinks he's legit untouchable now.

 

[italiamusica]

This is how you know the USA is fucked, is that someone can do a nazi salute and people are in here justifying it and saying others are taking it wrong. Trump could be on video raping a little girl and y'all would say it was taken out of context.

He should stand by it as a salute. He would probably be even more popular with the MAGA base. We are all seeing which direction the right is moving...

What like a "look what I can get away with" type of thing?

some might say that, others not.
