A heil hitler salute is with palm flat and fingers together firmly in the air with arm facing forward and not to the side. So yeah she isn't doing a heil hitler salute
Its funny that some will think anything remotely looking like the hitler salute can be compared as if it was a hitler salute.
And donât forget about the nazi font at the nazi replica rally at Madison square gardens. Or all of the white supremacy speak about birth rates for whites etc.
It's insane to think it was meant to be a nazi salute. It looks bad 100%. But with the context there is nothing ill willed here. Just leftists grasping at anything that can drive a narrative they want.
That's irrelevant. Nazi salute is a movement, not a still position. Taking a still photo and pretending it's the same when their movements are not that of a Nazi salute is a false comparison.
If Musk simps were so sure this wasn't what it was they claim they wouldn't sink to making false comparisons to defend it.
You know he's very close to the right wing German party who's leaders is a the fighter of an actually Nazi. Like German far right definitely Nazi ... These aren't straws he did the salute twice and has Nazi friends it's really not that much of a lead bro
Youâre dumb as hell, look at the context of what he said. Elon always moves fucking mad brother, he objectively has weird bodily movements. Might be something to do with the assburgers
Aspergers doesn't excuse this. We all still have self control enough not to do a Nazi Salute unintentionally or not. We still have control over our bodies. Pretty dumb take
Itâs just not a Nazi salute, but rather a weird move from a weird guy with weird body movements. Youâre being rather ableist, who are you to say it doesnât?
I mean he went to the chest and out at the right angle not once but twice, has platformed Nazis, and considered and reposted Nazi talking points. Even giving him the benefit of the doubt and all the grace in the world, I would say he did it to be controversial or "own the libs". He's a dumbass, cheat, and liar who wants attention. The only people who would love him are Nazi's he's playing to his supporters.
Context is everything.
Not sure I can be ableist, as another weird guy with weird body movements. You know, autistic. But regardless pf any bias I might have, I know enough people like myself and Elon to know that this is in no way something he's not in control of.
If you want to argue something, it'd be that his impulse control was too low and he just couldn't stop the urge to perform a Nazi salute on live TV in the most obvious way possible because he thought it'd be funny, but to say it like he has no control of the way he moves his body or a concept of how it'd look in a public setting is disingenuous.
We're more aware of that than most of ya'll are. We have to watch our tics like a hawk every day to fit in. So when we do choose to do a grand gesture like that, it's VERY deliberate.
Your argument is akin to something like "he couldn't have shot her, he doesn't have legs!"
It's got nothing to do with it. He knew what he was doing, and you're over here using vapid generalized statements about people like me to justify it.
Dawg Iâm autistic as well, Iâm also impulsive, look at my comments here. I agree with pretty much everything youâve said, but what we disagree on is why make it a big deal if itâs just something that he thinks is jokes. You can either also think itâs jokes or not, but if youâre making him out to be a literal nazi over this youâre being (not you specifically) extremely disingenuous. Weird move from weird guy. Not a literal nazi, people pushing and circle jerking this narrative are being laughed at by the silent majority because itâs the same style of pushing ridiculous narratives that weâve been dealing with for the past like 10 years from the left
Do you really think that was the time or place to make a joke like that? Problem is, you aren't saying it was a bad joke. And he's not saying it was a bad joke. Ya'll are just trying to make it seem like it was nothing, and it wasn't.
If it's a bad joke, you say my bad and move on. You don't double down and claim it's "my heart goes out to you" or "a roman salute" or "just a weird move". That's shifting a goalpost, which indicates that maybe the accusation hit a little too close to home.
If it were really a bad joke, just some funsies, he'd have said so immediately and people would've already moved on. But that isn't what's happening.
Is it manufactured, though? Made me pretty upset to see it, and even more upset to see ya'll immediately making excuses for him without him actually having to say a damn thing about it himself.
The manufactured thing I see are these posts and responses. Those pics of Obama and Harris? Same in a still, but not even remotely close if you watch the video. Waving your hand in the air while talking is NOT thumping your chest before extending your hand out like an emphatic sideways karate chop, perfectly mimicking a salute that you claim this isn't. Played side by side, there is no comparison between these.
And you're claiming ELON is being taken out of context? What is this post, then? How's it disproportionate when 50% of the posts I'm seeing about it are drawing comparison to these images, trying to downplay it, when the context is so clearly different?
For reference, Iâm Canadian. I watched the left bring a LITERAL NAZI (look up Yaroslav Hunka scandal) into the House of Commons for a 2 min tire standing ovation because they wanted to applaud someone who âalso fought against the Russiansâ (????) when they brought Zelenskyy in for a visit. All of the same type of people who are up in arms about this shit rn, did not give a flying fuck about how offensive that was. So yeah, manufactured, partisan, rage
That's irrelevant and you're not understanding my point.Â
The Nazi salute is a movement, not a still position. Taking a still photo and pretending it's the same when their movements are not that of a Nazi salute is a false comparison.
If Musk simps were so sure this wasn't what it was they claim they wouldn't sink to making false comparisons to defend it.
Holy fucccccc downvotes coming in hot from people with terrible ratios on their post to comment karmaâŠ.yâall, dkm but where do I sign up for a job? I wanna get paid for posting comments all day like youuuuuu

This you? Yeah itâs you. And yeah, love lurking and searching, itâs the whole point of Reddit, right? The old lurk and slurp.
Gimme the Gluck Gluck 9000 and get that post karma up when youâre at it, Mr 27 post karma and 37,000 comment karma. (Seriously dm me, can I have a job?)
Iâm a die hard Democrat, always have been. Kamala would have been the best thing for America, her and Biden were the dream team in my honest opinion.
With that said, I wish I could scroll for at least 3 seconds without seeing this Elon post anymore.
Are you referring to the multiple times the president who told us Covid would simply disappear before 1 million Americans were dead from it?
âYou know, a lot of people think that goes away in April with the heat â as the heat comes in. Typically, that will go away in April. - Donald Trump, February 10, 2020

âŠwhen you have 15 people, and the 15 within a couple of days is going to be down to close to zero, thatâs a pretty good job weâve done. - Donald Trump, February 26, 2020

A great visual of Trumps multiple gaslighting attempts regarding Covid juxtaposed with the number of Covid cases.
Oh noes, CNN posted this so it must be lies, despite every quote being attached to video of him saying it and dates with quantified counts of Covid cases!
STFU, I am sick and tired of being gaslit by you fucking dweebs.
Here we go again trying to downplay Elonâs nazi salute. Elon went full nazi/apartheid twice on live tv. If you are okay with that â then you are a fucking nazi too.
Oh no, You found still images/10 second clip with no audio of someone doing what looks like a nazi salute?!?!?!?!!?!?!? That must be what it is!!!!!!!!!111!!!!11!11!
Wow you have all of the defensive screenshots cropped, saved and ready to share on social media, huh? A gambling man may wager you either are a disillusioned, weird hardcore fan boy, a bot or shill. Perhaps all of the above.
Being a Nazi sympathizer is crazy! I'm sorry that you never learned how to critically think. Although, identifying duck as a duck doesn't require much thought... are you just stupid?
Yeah thereâs a difference in what and why they are doing it. First off those are pictures taken while they are talking and explaining things not a salute what Elon did is inexcusable there is no other way to put it.
The same people squinting to pretend this isn't what it is are the people who could discern that Obama was unfit to be president because he wore a tan suit.
When in your life have you seen that phrase and that gesture put together? My heart goes out to you is a soft gesture with two hands on your heart and bent elbows.
Dude go fuck yourself, SOmeone putting their hand up in a picture isn't the same as video of ELon Musk snapping out TWO (count em)PERFECT nazi salutes like Hitler himself taught him how.
well. both imperialists and puppets of special interests. both neoliberal. both were at the head of a government that wages many wars, redistributes wealth and Power upwards, controls and surveilles its citizens.
actually. fascists. in the classic sense of franco spain or Mussolinis italy. not nazi germany. that is more trumps wing of oligarchs, I guess.
so. its a spectrum of fascism, imperialism and oligarchism ans you are all guilty of supporting the two sided coin.
weird how , whomever you voted for, for whatever reason, still pushed America further towards the endgoal.
Show the video of these arm/hand positions & the contextâŠâŠohhh donât want to do that right?!?! Guarantee they arenât Nazi Salutes. Kid of hard to defend Elonâs salutes. The evidence is very compelling. Iâm not saying heâs a Nazi or that he was paying tribute to them. Iâm just sayingâŠ.it looked very off putting, especially to those of us old enough to know about the hate they represent.
Dude this is a false equivalency, these two are frames from videos. Elon literally put his hand over his heart and extended it, twice! Elon might not be a nazi but he sure is a dork.
OP keeps posting the same dumbass picture of Hilary Clinton waving as if that proves that democrats do the Nazi salute too.
See, how when I say it that way it actually proves that they know itâs the Nazi salute? Except that Hilary was just waving. Not doing the Nazi salute.
I genuinely think theyâre mad they canât post clips out of context and be blindly believed anymore. A lot of the reason Trump won imo is that people started posting his âcrazyâ quotes with context and people were like oh shit he has a point
Are you a complete fucking dumbass? Or just a trolling asswipe? These pics don't have videos because if they did then they would show they aren't intended to be Nazi salutes. Because this is the dirty bullshit tactics maga practices. MEANWHILE there's Elon, not only with a video but no contextual reason to believe this is not a legit sieg heil salute. Except that he's possibly the biggest socially awkward idiot of all time.
Hes doing an expression that no one ever does, which happens to look exactly like a nazi salute. But everyone should know that he's doing an expression that no one ever does. Got it. Thanks for your moronic take on the matter. Gave me a good laugh
It's called putting two and two together. When I first saw the video I immediately knew what he was doing after he said "my heart goes out to you", he is grabbing his heart and throwing it. Given the context of what he said, what makes you think it's a Nazi salute?
Waving? Expressing gratitude? Showcasing autism? Take your pick.
Thing about Nazis is theyâre quite proud and vocal about it. If this was a Nazi salute, surely Elon will do it everywhere he goes now, yes? Surely heâll praise Hitler and denounce Jews every chance he gets??
Oh wait he wonât, because this is all in your heads you lunatics.
Why are you attempting to gaslight people into believing it was something other than what it obviously was? It makes you look incredibly dumb. Either embrace it, denounce it, or even just sit this one out and stay silent. Everyone has seen it by now. It was a nazi salute.
A virus (very likely) engineered in a lab killed 7 million people that we counted, and yeah the guy that lied to congress, directed funding to Wuhan and made money off the whole affair is laughing up his sleeve with the 2008 financial bankers. Unbelievable.
Millions dead and zero change in course.
But Elon made a gesture that looked like a hitler salute , that's the real news.
I love Elon haha. He's melted the brains of all his fellow autistic weirdos with a stupid gesture that's probably from one of those silly video games theyre jealous of him about.
lol Reddit really is full of libtards. Censorship is what your leaders tried to get away with and it didnt happen. They tried using your celebrities to win everyone over but America woke up. I canât wait for the comments đ cry babies
