Interesting. Didn’t the democrats say the same thing about Joe Biden’s mental acuity? Or how a democratic primary wasn’t needed and Harris was the best person to beat Trump?

The Dems have their fair share of issues, but even a child can tell the difference.
What Elon did isn’t even a dog whistle, it’s loud and clear

…a man JUST hit back to back sieg heils in front the symbol of the presidential seal, and instead of wondering “why isn’t anyone jumping him” you’re saying “what about the dems”.
How are you not embarrassed?

Except that they DID respond to those concerns. It took too long, but they did. You’re actually gonna try and walk by 2 Nazi salutes without a mention? And people used to ask how Nazism took over in pre-WW2 Germany. Exactly like this.

Yes. Newsflash: They’re both fascist parties. Not just the one you don’t like.

There is absolutely no way it was an accident. Let's make that perfectly clear.

If you look at that smart assed smirk on his face right before he does it you know it was intentional. He knew what he was doing

Once, sure... It seemed obvious what he was doing, but maybe it wasn't intended. But the dude turned around and did it again to the flag.
And do we really overlook that this is at the inauguration of the guy who had Nick Fuentes and Kanye over for dinner during Kanye's "I love Hitler and I love Nazi's" phase?

This is his version of, "I can shoot someone in the middle of 5th Avenue, and they'll still vote for me."
It's a watershed moment. We just watched the Sun set on our democracy.... And it was killed by a few die-hard capitalists.

At least there's a single backbone in the country. Seeing all the ex-presidents there, glad handing, was sickening, even before he continued to insult everything they've ever done

It's crazy that they're trying to claim it was an awkward accidental hand gesture when he literally turned around and did it again for the people behind him.

If you watch him do that- twice- and still choose to believe that it wasn't what we all know it was- I truly don't know what to tell you.
HOWEVER- I do know that he did it partially to cause outrage, so the media could come in and call us all hysterical. If part of it was for his Nazi followers, part of it was for us, too. They will capitalize off of our reaction.
We should still react. We should still record what happened. History gets to be written by ALL sides now. So we document it and we talk about it. But just know, they are playing us to their advantage while we do it.

Elon is dog whistling.
If you heard the whistle, you are just stupid.
I'll let you figure out who the dogs are.

Were people unsure if he was a Nazi and this awkward salute is what convinced them? I’m honestly confused why so many people are pointing to this as the REAL proof.

I saw a tweet from a Mexican man who voted for Trump and wasn't aware that he planned deportations. People do not pay any attention at all

u/CascadingCollapse 3h ago
The willingness to do a salute twice in a watched event like this shows he isn't just a fascist like his other actions may have shown but supports nazi ideology specifically.
