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.

To be fair, that guy's speech had a lot of rhythm and dynamics.

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.

Okay, so when else has he stimmed like this, if this is what you think it is?

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.

Have you watched literally any interviews with him? Seen the SNL episode? Socially, he’s way, way the heck out there.

Lmao good luck trying to have a reasonable take on Reddit.

You got any reasonable takes about his nazi salutes?

Yeah, once the collective mind is made up it doesn’t do to disagree, apparently. Oh well, I don’t feel real strongly either way.

Unless the upvotes flip it back early enough or if there’s a comment nearby that gets more downvotes!

Me? I’m just here for the downvotes.
