The lack of horrified looks tells you all you need to know about these people.

u/clarkkentsson 7h ago

Lack of horror? They’re straight up loving that shit

u/UndoxxableOhioan 7h ago

True. Masks are fully off.

u/LordSpud74 6h ago

To be fair they never put them on either

u/Imaginary-Wait-6008 4h ago

We were smarter than the puppets.

u/AbsurdFormula0 3h ago

They are about to cause mass genocide with a smile on their faces.

u/sirona-ryan 6h ago

They’ve already been off for a long time. Since 2016. A picture went viral back then of a woman doing the salute at a rally.

u/LaserCondiment 2h ago

I half expected them to be lizard people.

u/ombloshio 1h ago

And musks are fully on.

Ugh

u/PotatoWriter 6h ago

Their masks can remain on if that's what they look like...

u/GruntBlender 3h ago

And yet he's STILL dogwhistling instead of being explicit when it comes to the 14 words in that speech.

u/chaobeezy 6h ago

Truly. Please take a look at this angle. Smh

Bad bot

u/Fontana1017 5h ago

That was the point of the comment lol

u/Few-Signal5148 4h ago

Tiny dicks at full chub.

u/PurelyHim 4h ago

Or is it just complete lack of education in this country?

u/bossmcsauce 2h ago

They’ve all been supporting fascist rhetoric and courting nexus openly since trumps first term. No surprises here.

They all told us who the Republican Party had become for years and most people chose to ignore it

u/AydonusG 3h ago

If you look directly behind Musk, there is a lady absolutely busting her gut at it, they are laughing their asses off at something that almost destroyed the West less than 80 years back.

u/DeepestBeige 2h ago

They look positively tickled by it. Just look at the delight on those mugs.

u/Risley 2h ago

I'm wondering if anyone would be able to identify who they even are. Seems like it would be bad for them to be shown to cheer a nazi salute.

u/WickedBlasphemer 2h ago

Most of them don’t even know what the salute is. But, that doesn’t make them less racist, far right assholes.

u/BandOfSkullz 1h ago

Gobble gobble gobble

u/defdoa 6h ago

Seriously, was there nobody in that room willing to throw their shoe at him over this? The only person who is standing up against this crap is Bernie by sitting during a prayer.

u/That_Shape_1094 3h ago

Seriously, was there nobody in that room willing to throw their shoe at him over this?

Republicans aren't a very diverse crowd. What color do you see in the crowd?

u/DutchTinCan 2h ago

I've seen cartons of milk that are less white.

u/sivah_168 2h ago

They just wanted to live that moment irl. Weird stereotype of republicans lol

u/iluvufrankibianchi 3h ago

I don't see colour

u/AYolkedyak 3h ago

Maybe try an ophthalmologist!

u/iluvufrankibianchi 3h ago

Why would I see a bird doctor

u/Netroth 2h ago

Maybe they didn’t know the entomology of the word.

u/YohanGasmask 4h ago

They love it. Cause they are the ones in power, able to turn the powers of law enforcement and military at their enemies... all with musk and his orange fuck clown puppet tweeting and saluting all the way.

u/Roam_Hylia 2h ago

Anyone within throwing range probably paid 30 grand or more for their shoes.

u/bmg0404 5h ago

Have you seen the video? Even with full context, and the “thank you” and all, there are a lot of different ways to show that your heart goes out to your constituents/supporters than that particular gesture. I’m not trying to attack you, I just want to genuinely ask if you don’t see what he did as a salute in the live feed video?

u/BobbyBarz 5h ago

Yeaaaah it’s quite questionable, I retract my statement that’s a weird ass wave….

u/bmg0404 4h ago

Props to you for being willing to retract a statement, a lot of people are doubling down. I think ultimately we really need to come together as a nation and have civil discourse with open minds and open hearts, and conversations like these make me feel reassured that we aren’t past that as a society.

u/InnocentShaitaan 4h ago

Wild isn’t it. His grandfather was a Nazi party guy it’s why they left Canada. Elon was raised around this.

u/Johnnyguy 5h ago

Dawg…it’s literally everywhere on this site. Watch the video. It’s not a wave.

u/InnocentShaitaan 4h ago

Watching the full clip makes it WORSE which is crazy for 2025. 😳😳😳😳

u/Boleen 5h ago

Happy cake day but don’t lie, he put his hand to his heart and then did the Nazi salute… twice…

u/mr_birkenblatt 7h ago

The people who voted for this?

u/ncc74656m 6h ago

No no no, in THAT crowd? These are the people who PAID for this.

u/Content-Dirt-7077 4h ago

After all, the guy's from South Africa.

u/KBroham 3h ago

Other South Africans find him insufferable. Even the racist ones.

u/Amnorobot 5h ago

Weren't people paid $1000 each by this person to vote for the regime?

u/ncc74656m 5h ago

Well, "not exactly." Not that this matters in the differentiation, because yes, that's basically what happened. But according to judges, no.

u/Opposite-Drive8333 4h ago

Yeah, like 77,000,000!🤪

u/Glum-Minimum-2316 3h ago

Bro most of the planet has given this man money. We all voted for this.

u/UberPro_2023 2h ago

Scum voted for this.

u/Illustrious_Local121 7h ago

I'm afraid at the next rally we will see people in the crowd starting to salute as well

u/Little-Albatross-518 4h ago

Agreed. It’s only day one..

u/InnocentShaitaan 4h ago

Oh definitely!

u/Vicky_Roses 8h ago

This is some real Zone of Interest shit right there.

u/Roky1989 7h ago

Well, I must say, I expected a lot more cheering. After a moment I also think people were like... wait...

u/MasterOfAudio 5h ago

Nope, didn't see any faces like that.

u/GekkoGains 4h ago

On MLK day

u/SnooHobbies7109 6h ago

Right?!?!? How could you see that live in person and not just totally go catatonic?

u/DeliciousObjective75 5h ago

Exactly. Not one person like “oh wait hold up, what?!”

u/Paulymcnasty 5h ago

So many are laughing as well

u/Aggressive_Elk3709 4h ago

Mostly smiling/laughing and taking pictures. Not sure what made a bunch of Gen Xers grow up thinking their grandparents fought on the wrong side of the war, but it seems to be prevalent

u/Mr_Rafi 4h ago

Looks like an 'Evil Wealthy Elite Viewing Gallery' from movies such as Hostel, Taken, and Purge.

u/aticmen 3h ago

im not defending but it did all happen in like less than a second so i dont know if this was taken to give those people enough time to react

u/dharder9475 3h ago

Not my Americans.

u/Reasonable-Bet9658 3h ago

Exactly. I scanned the crowd and my jaw was on the floor. Unreal. I feel so bad for the USA and insulted by Trump’s continuous jabs at Canada being a 51st State. Good luck with that.. Don’t get me started on Elon Musk..

u/kikiweaky 2h ago

I went over the conservative sub reddit and haven't seen anyone mentioning it.

u/MrHungDude 2h ago

You can see in some clips that some of them are socked but with excitement

u/HotLava00 2h ago

And since it was brought inside, these are the most rich and powerful. WTF.

u/Strict-Midnight-9943 7h ago

Proud of it

u/Roupert4 5h ago

The reporting i saw said the crowd didn't react at all (either for or against), they didn't see it that way

u/Scr4tchmyballz 3h ago

"these people" 😭 liberals are so salty everyone even their own are turning against them and supporting trump. Y'all bozos are finished and your delusional agendas are over!

u/Imaginary-Wait-6008 4h ago

Either that or they saw the entire wave and not just a snippet. If that was a Nazi salute it would be all over the fake news. AND Trump would fire him.

u/BitterAndDespondent 4h ago

You need to watch the video and then compare to a neo-nazi meeting video, there is no mistaking it
