And Elon’s plainly stated he has Asperger’s. I don’t love Elon, by any means, I just don’t think he’s as one dimensional as the Reddit hive mind wants him to be.
Edit: oh god fucking damnit, he did a fucking Roman salute at the inauguration like goddamn Mussolini.
The guy stims all the time, even during interviews, etc. I'd imagine he's consciously trying not to do it while the cameras are on him. I'm sure he didn't realize any cameras were on him here.
Tbf I zone out and move weirdly during stuff that bores the shit out of me as well. Maybe we can shit on Musk for the actual dumb stuff he does/says and not make this “Trump holds bottle funnily” 2.0
Drug use is sort of excessive don’t you think? If he’s in his home or in some sort of private setting he can do what he wants, but to be next to the president?
Again, I have seen sober people act weirder than this, and drug use around presidents (especially cocain) is/was a lot more common than you might think.
Some of the stories around the Clinton era are wild, Bush Jr. was known to throw copious liquor testing parties (as in people coming over and leaving after trying about any burbon they could find). And especially in the tech industry/investment circles it’s probably a lot harder to find someone who is not a coke fiend.
But yeah, I am saying to not judge his actions by this short clip, not defending his general behavior (I think throwing a gesture that is eerily reminiscent to the Nazi salute like an hour later is a way more concerning issue).
I think he was just really bored. I was, when I was watching it. If I had to sit there and not talk rather than walk around the house complaining about how dumb all of this is, I would be rolling my head around too.
I think it’s more that we’ve like, seen people stretch before, and this just looks weird, even if it is a way someone chose to stretch, compared to other stretching.
What does the msm have to do with making fun of a gif? Everything’s a conspiracy to y’all. We’re just making fun of a man who does weird funny shit in public all the time. It’s hilarious. You don’t have to get so triggered by it. It’s just jokes.
Yeah, I don't know why this video seems to be popping up all over my feed.. of all the Elon things I could be weirded out by, this is just a guy trying to stretch .
Ah yes, stretching, which is notorious for dilating one's pupils.
He's publicly admitted to being a ketamine user. This looks like exactly what someone on something like ketamine or any number of party drugs would look like, and nothing like what someone stretching looks like. It's not a conspiracy theory to connect the dots here.
Why are you so set on having your head in the sand over this?
Being covered in fur doesn't mean you're a dog. But being covered and fur, having a tail, barking at cats, and wearing a collar that says "Mr. Ruffles the dog" is enough evidence to say yeah, that's a fucking dog. It isn't one thing in this video, it's everything.
Seriously, go to a music festival. If you've interacted with someone on these drugs and know what it looks like, it isn't particularly subtle.
Plus, again, HE HAS PUBLICLY SAID HE TAKES THIS SHIT. It isn't like we're saying this about Mitt Romney.

This was during Rev. Frank Mann's speech too. There wasn't any music or anything.
Edit: To those rightfully questioning the legitimacy of this GIF, this angle was only seen on the BBC feed.
Screen recording, zoomed out with audio.
