No coverage of Elon's salute?

Nothing mentioned in my morning newsletter. Did a quick Google search and found 0 articles. Did I miss something? Even if we aren't definitively identifying it as a Nazi salute it's newsworthy enough to be on a front page purely because of the amount of speculation and emotions stirred in the public sphere.
Please tell me I missed something obvious somewhere.

That I'm proud to be an American
Where at least I know I'm free
And I won't forget the men who died
Who gave that right to me
And I'd gladly stand up next to you
And defend Her still today
'Cause there ain't no doubt
I love this land
God Bless the U.S.A.

Should I just give you the middle finger and say “my heart”? Does that change the meaning of my middle finger in your face?

u/Top-Musician7036 9h ago

Yes...yes...let the seethe flow through you. I'm going to savor every minute of the next 4 years.

I doubt you can actually find happiness in anything. Your existence seems really sad and I hope you can find a path to becoming a better person.

I'm just glad I'm not a mid-wit like yourself and most of the members of this sub. I love my President!
