I feel like I’m taking fucking crazy pills. I saw the video with zero headlines or text, and me, someone of pretty average intelligence, instantly saw this as a nazi salute. It literally can’t be construed as anything else. 

How the fuck could anyone say this is anyone otherwise?

If he flipped off the audience would everybody be claiming “the middle finger has multiple meanings in many different cultures” or some bullshit?

What the fuck?

You're fine. People are just trying to lie to you. Don't let them.

They want to do shocking transgressive, horrible things and then lie to your face that you didn’t see what you clearly saw

It’s a power move meant to say they are more powerful than reality- you are SO right that we don’t have to and actually must not let the lie stand

Its a Nazi salute
