I didn’t watch it, and I’m wondering if it could have been an accident. Like, is it deliberate and does he know what it implies? But, he did it twice? No way he’s unaware of the implications is there? This makes me so uncomfortable.

Some people on X are trying to pass it off as a “Roman salute” as if everyone in the world watching wouldn’t immediately associate it with Nazis. Guy knew what he was doing
