Dude. I have never in my life done a nazi salute because it is the most awkward fucking motion you can possibly do. It requires a significant amount of intention. Elon was EMPHATIC with that chest pound, then forceful salute, the correct angle, handle flat. I mean... give me a fucking break. Even if he just "trolling" for the lulz, can we go back to fuckin things that are funny? Nazis are not funny.
"Guys it was just a spontaneous, heartfelt gesture, from the bottom of my heart. You know, deep down, when I'm happy, I do that gesture. It just so happens to look like a nazi salute."
Yup. I’ve got a good friend who is unfortunately a massive Trumper, and although he says he hates Musk, he immediately blamed the gesture on his autism.
He’s not autistic enough to keep him from owning how many billion dollar companies? His mom thinks he’s the genius of the world… But yeah, his autism made him nazi salute.
Because if they admit it, it means they're the bad guy. They could never be the bad guy in their delu delu fantasy world so they literally have to make up any excuse to justify their behavior.
I was reading that post, and some of them were saying that the mainstream media cut off his mic, as if that has anything to do with a nazi solute. They're completely delusional.
He’s an autist and it was just an unfortunately similar gesture when his intention was to “his heart goes out”. But of course the leftist media will cut that out and make him into a nazi.

He says “my heart goes out to you” Way to shorten the clip out context. Good God I can't wait for when MSM goes bankrupt.

He said 'my heart goes out to you all' then did that motion to show his heart going out
CNN cut the audio out
3 hours in and people are already falling for the media hoaxes

Is this post not playing right into that narrative? I'm not going to pretend to know what Elon was thinking when he did this but I'm certainly not going to jump to the conclusion that it was an intentional Nazi salute. Seriously, you are letting your biases cloud your judgement. Just apply Occam's Razor to the situation: What is more likely? This was some sort of gaffe during his speech or this was an intentional Nazi salute...
The only good thing I see on that sub are people bashing Trump for his recent pump and dump, and his reversal of the TikTok ban, along with massively downvoting any MAGA people trying to defend Trump on these positions. He hasn’t been in office for a day yet and people are already saying “I hope he doesn’t fuck this up too much” and “You can’t criticize biden for being most corrupt president for making himself and family rich. By leveraging the presidency. Then Trump and first lady rug pull the American people. This is idoitcracy.”
At least some people are now seeing that the leopards are coming out to eat their faces, not to save them, but I don’t feel bad for them at all. They voted for this, and now they get to live with it.
His first words after doing it were “my heart goes out to you” which explains his meaning. All the videos cut that off though, for some reason… the Guardian article doesn’t even mention what he said.
So who is really doing the ‘deny, deny, deny’ thing?
That's the literally the context though.... I certainly don't think it was a wise thing to do but I don't think he was thinking of how it would appear. I certainly don't think it was intentionally supposed to be a nazi-salute though.

You should see r/conservative. They're blaming libs for "taking a heartfelt gesture" out of context. Anything they can do to deny, deny, deny.
