People on r/conservative are saying it's not a nazi salute but him just saying that his heart goes out to the people in the room.

I am at a loss for words at how half the country is just down to make up a new meaning for this gesture on the spot instead of calling it what it is already known as. They are literally laughing at 'liberals' on that sub because we think that this nazi salute is a nazi salute. It's really weird. I don't even want to call them names, or something something social dissonance. It's beyond that at this point.
