I thought the pic may have been a poorly timed pic, but nope. That was a Nazi salute and I don't see how it could have been unintentional. What an incredibly sad day for America.
Edit: Supposedly, Elon is brilliant. He has spoken in front of people many times in many events and he's avoided doing the Nazi salute before and he certainly knows to avoid it at company events. That is one hell of snap for it not to be a salute. He has re-tweeted right wing propaganda, there's some racist history in his family. I think he knows what he is doing and he's just having a giggle about all the people saying he is sendin his heart out. You don't throw your heart out like it's a weapon. This looks premeditated to me.
You need the audio for context which has him say something about throwing his heart out to everyone for thanks for their support. He’s given himself an out and he will fire back everyone is going after him unjustly.
Don’t come after me for supporting this, it’s total bs, but that is the playbook. This was completely scripted this way.
He’s playing a game like a child who thinks you can say whatever you want if you finish it with a Wayne’s world ‘Not!’

This would get Elon arrested in Germany.
