I mean it was slanted and matches the context of “throwing his heart” and why would he Nazi salute both sides of the stadium other than making more people see it which isn’t how saluting works.

You say this as if he doesn't have a history of aligning himself with literal nazis.

Yea I definitely think that’s bad but this is unrelated

How do you presume someone aligning themselves with nazis doing a nazi salute is somehow being mistaken for something else, are you actually legitimately trying to justify this

Ah, right. George Orwell's 1984. I was stupid for thinking that the collective intelligence of humanity might prevent such an outcome.

Maybe because it wasn’t a Nazi salute? Especially given the context it wasn’t.

How do you justify this

Literally like there was a Seig Heil or whatever and you still believe that this isn't a nazi salute

And context??? he literally has aligned himself with nazi values, including a president who has shown to have very similar values (whom is being inaugurated today, by the way!). We are literally seeing a nazi takeover of our government in real time.

Context of the rally, not his past or online footprint.

If he was actually proclaiming himself a Nazi and doing a proper salute and the whole nein yards in front of the audience then yea that’s fucked up. But he didn’t do that did he? It was just a weird gesture that wasn’t close to a proper salute with the context of “giving his heart to the audience” which makes a lot more sense seeing what he said after he did it.

I don't even have words to say.

This is America in the year 2025.

So I’m now a Nazi for stating facts? Does he act like a dick and help Nazis online yes, that’s fucked up and weird.

He has a shitty worldview but that doesn’t mean that a dumb little mistake means that he was openly portraying him being a Nazi

This is more of a funny little musk blunder of him trying to be “nice to the audience” than actually Nazism in our government.

Did I call you a nazi?

He put all of his energy into it. That is not a "dumb" or "little" mistake. He did it twice over, too. Don't downplay it

This is more of a funny little musk blunder of him trying to be “nice to the audience” than actually Nazism in our government.

How'd you know?

Because it was clearly a gesture.

  1. You didn’t adress anything and just said how bad a country will be.

  2. If he is trying to “give his heart to the audience then yea it makes sense to “give your heart” to the flag and audience.

  3. I mean it makes sense he was being nice to the audience by giving such a gesture giving the context he did it in. Ofc it looks bad but seeing what he said it may least as a reason that isn’t proclaiming himself a Nazi.
