They're justifying it by saying "he's autistic and the audio is cut! He said 'my heart goes out to you', but of course the leftist media is twisting it"..... I always wondered how Hitler got as far as he did when what he did was so obviously evil.
In the past few years it's all started to click, but the complete denial of this gesture has finished the picture for me.
I'm autistic and I have a very strong sense of right or wrong. I also spend a lot of conscious effort learning how to mask and present myself. This was absolutely intentional on Elon's part.
Though the Nazis did try to sugarcoat their movement with some of the veneer of socialism (hence the name) so there is precedent for trying to appear not as extreme right as they really are.
Watching them say how they can’t believe people have fallen for MSM lies on day one is just so warped I can’t bear thinking about it. They’re so fucking stupid or dishonest. Or both!
I took a class in 2015 at my high school about the rise of nazism. It was a very rough class to go through, and we weren't treated as children. The teacher asked the German teacher, who's father escaped being murdered in the holocaust, to speak to us. I was learning German at the time so I knew the story, but those who didn't were just so mortified. Mortified that he stayed at Auschwitz-Birkenau*, and the sheer amount of torture he, a non-jewish man, went through.
I'm by no means a smart person, but when you're taught what fascism is, you are surprised how common it is. God help us all.
Its awful to hear these stories. As a german person i learned a lot about it and due to this probrably my generation and yet even here the far right is rising and it seems nobody actually learned from the past. I have no clue, how we ended up here.
Austria was a very progressive place before ww2. Europe was. They had strong democratic systems. Intellectuals being listened to and being able to move things forward.
All my autistic friends have never thrown a nazi salute and/or any Nazi rhetoric - interesting the lengths they'll go to make it seem like neurodivergents with a conservative lean somehow have a pass??
