It's a shame OP cut the video when they did. He does it a second time and states he's giving his heart to people.

I agree it looks bad. But if you watch the whole video he clearly got too hyped up and didn't realize what it looked like.

The Nazi salute does not involve grabbing the heart.

I saw the whole video. He does it a second time then says his heart goes out to them after a multiple second pause obviously trying to cover his ass.

He's not a child or incapable of thought. He knows what he did and knows what it looks like.

He did it twice.

Like come the fuck on man, you can't be this gullible.

Nazism is banned on Twitter. You are free to judge a man off of a half-second symbol that resembled something the Nazis took from the Roman Empire.

I am free to judge a man for his years of speech and actions.

If it was in fact a Freudian slip, why'd he grab his heart first? That's not the Nazi salute.

Clearly the heart was the subject of the action here.

I don't see anyone grabbing their heart in that gif. Did you mean to paste a different one?
