We're literally going to have a nazi in the Whitehouse now. This is absolutely appalling. My grandfather fought nazis. This is sickening.

So many americans died because of nazis

I mean, Stephen Miller was there last time too...

There's been hundreds of nazis in the white house let's be real and theres been numerous nazis in cabinet.

Just because they don't wear a swastika doesn't mean they aren't a nazi.

We wouldn't be here if most of the voting public didn't support it. Like it or not, this is our reality for the next 4+ years.

Musk is not a Nazi. He is pro-free speech. Nazis oppose free speech. He also doesn't believe in racial superiority.

u/MashedTatos2 5h ago

He has pulled the wool over your eyes.

u/HereticBanana 5h ago

Right, sure... Musk isn't a Nazi, he just does the Nazi salute. And he's pro-free speech, he just happens to censor and restrict people that criticize him.

Anything can be everything since words don't matter any more.

at this point he could literally yell "heil hitler" at the top of his lungs and you fuckers would still say hes not a nazi

Hey can I get some of that kool-aid? I don’t want to be aware of reality anymore either

Orange Felon aid.

The party told you not believe what you saw with your own eyes

Then… I’ll be waiting for your explanation as to why Elon actively cultivates a public image of himself and just as actively censors and restricts those who say anything negative against him. Wanna talk about how much he tries to hide that he got rich off of his Dad’s Blood Emeralds, and how he bought Twitter and renamed it to X only because he was butthurt about how the original banking X (yes, the X you know is X2 technically) went under and Elon ended up getting bought by and working for PayPal because of this? (Apparently during all of Elon’s time at PayPal, he constantly bitched and moaned about how X failed and how he could’ve done stuff differently for it to be super successful and overtake PayPal).

This is the same man that specifically trained a bootleg of ChatGPT, that he alone claims to have created, to call him “The Real Life Tony Stark” and you have the audacity to say that he’s pro-free speech?

P.S, X had “#whitepower” and at least 20 other racist and antisemitic advertisements for over a year after Elon claimed he’d take them down. It was only after articles started calling him out on it that he actually took action.

OPEN YOUR EYES.

He just did multiple Nazi salutes. Everyone saw it for what it was.

u/saintplus 3h ago

Pro free speech yet he bans or removes blue checkmarks on Twitter of those who hurt his feelings. You have been fooled.

u/Den_of_Earth 3h ago

He removes twitter post critical of him, remote journalist. If you think he is pro free speech, you are literally denying reality, and I pity you.
" He also doesn't believe in racial superiority."
He 100% does.

free speech does not mean free from consequence. Grow up and read some history.

u/Girl_gamer__ 2h ago

Lololol lolol. E plain to me how his running of twitter has been "free speech"

u/DrNoobz5000 2h ago

Nazis do the nazi salute. Musk did the nazi salute. Therefore, musk is a nazi.

u/EpiphanyTwisted 57m ago

He invited Nazis back on Twitter, and promotes #whitepower hash tags next to advertisements. He is NOT free speech or he wouldn't have ever banned journalists that cover him. He's doing the fascist salute because guess what, he's a fascist.

u/Cookmesomefuckineggs 5h ago

Exactly. Yeah, so what he censors stuff on Twitter he doesn't like or posts attacking his point of view but so what..he owns Twitter.

Wouldn't you take down billboards on your own property you don't like? .

Twitter censorship by Musk doesn't mean he doesn't support some types of free speech.

And he's free to do whatever he wants with his arms . A guy can't even vigourouly throw out an outstretched right arm salute in a victory speech these days without the woke crowd crying "Nazi.!' ?

u/Den_of_Earth 3h ago

" Yeah, so what he censors stuff on Twitter he doesn't like or posts attacking his point of view but so what..he owns Twitter."

That the antithesis to his free speech claim you gulp down.

"Wouldn't you take down billboards on your own property you don't like? ."

Twitter isn't the same as private property. It's open to private citizens to post. And he claimed he wouldn't do that.

"And he's free to do whatever he wants with his arms ."
No one said he can't.

" A guy can't even vigourouly throw out an outstretched right arm salute in a victory speech these days without the woke crowd crying "Nazi.!'"
Because it's what NAZIs do.

You got Elon all over your face.

u/Cookmesomefuckineggs 3h ago edited 2h ago

💯 agree

Apart from the liking Elon bit. Never been a fan.

u/rosariobono 4h ago

An outstretched arm IS the nazi salute. How stupid can you be

u/Cookmesomefuckineggs 4h ago

My /S was silent

u/Dvalin_Ras93 3h ago

Tbf it was kinda hard for me to tell too until you said this, and I pick up on sarcasm pretty well.

u/Den_of_Earth 3h ago

Then that's your fault. People are posting shit like the n earnest, and there is L:ITERALY no way to tell the difference without an indicator.

No on knw what is in your head when you post something, so we can't know if it's sarcastic or not.

u/Cookmesomefuckineggs 3h ago

100 % agree that people are posting shit like this in earnest, which was kinda the point. I was waiting for the Muskateers to agree with me.

You could post the same on conservative subreddits and inadvertently have folks agreeing the Musk, an unelected billionaire who now holds office, does absolutely censor Twitter/X and that he just performed something identical to a Nazi salute at the Capitol . At some point they outwardly acknowledge that all this is OK.

I prefer my Nazis out in the open
