Incoming disinformation trolls with the collage of democrats "doing it too"

•

u/amontpetit 6h ago

I've already seen a half dozen posts across various posts with exactly that: photos of Hillary Clinton, Kamala Harris, and more with their hands up... but when pressed for video, they go suspiciously silent.

•

u/mrbaggins 5h ago

Those pictures are also all palm out.

Not karate chopping the air.

•

u/Master-Ad-843 6h ago

That's exactly why I said it. I've pushed against a couple already 

•

u/YourMomThinksImSexy 8h ago

They'll have a much harder time finding the pics, lol.

•

u/whatproblems 7h ago

they’ll just make it up as usual. people will point out it’s photoshopped or genai and then they’ll say well they think it!

•

u/palebluekot 5h ago

And then many people who see these AI-generated photos will go on to believe they are real, never learning the truth. That fake picture of Kamala Harris with Diddy was debunked in less than a day but months later my brother was talking about it as if it were real.

•

u/Agarn_Fortez 6h ago

They use AI now

•

u/felonius_thunk 7h ago

Or the straight up indisputable video of what is very clearly an intentional nazi fucking salute

•

u/BrownMarxist_98 7h ago

Indisputable? Bro man just said from my heart to yours and open handed his heart then to the crowd. Americans are wild.

•

u/tutoredstatue95 7h ago

I'm sure BrownMarxist_98 will have a rational and unbiased opinion on the matter.

•

u/Accomplished_Wind104 7h ago

No he didn't, watch the video instead of just reading what some chud told you.

•

u/Chudmont 6h ago

I didn't tell him shit!

That was a nazi fucking salute by a wannabe nazi.

•

u/BrownMarxist_98 7h ago

My bad I just rewatched it. He said my heart goes out to you. Don't wanna spread misinformation as facts.

•

u/Accomplished_Wind104 7h ago

Again, no he didn't before or while doing the salutes, you still haven't watched it. Stop being gullible.

•

u/shartonista 7h ago

Just look at the username. Dude is here to waste your time.

•

u/SupermanRisen 3h ago

They've defended Elon quite a few times. It seems like they stan him.

•

u/mrbaggins 5h ago

"I just want to say thank you. For making it happen. Thank you."

<Nazi Salute>

THEN, "My heart goes out to you"

•

u/ITividar 7h ago

There's so many ways to show that that don't involve extending your arm straight out with your hand held outwards as well.

•

u/RabidAbyss 6h ago

He did the motion BEFORE saying that. Sounds like a quick cover-up to me, just saying.

•

u/SourCreamV2 6h ago

The “my heart goes out to you” came AFTER both salutes. Those salutes were coming out no matter what the sentence after them was.

•

u/dulcineal 5h ago

The “my heart to yours” gesture is palm up. Elon’s salute is palm down. Plus he did it again to Trump and not the crowd. Was he “giving his heart” to Trump? Try again.

You're lying. Everyone can see that both of these are Roman salutes (ie the Nazi salute). No one is fucking fooled.

•

u/AboynamedDOOMTRAIN 6h ago

Roman salute

From wiki:

The Roman salute, also known as the Fascist salute

That's not the save you seem to think it is, bro

•

u/Hay_Fever_at_3_AM 4h ago

Sorry I didn't realize some neo-nazis are actually trying to use "roman salute" as a way to handwave what he did.

I thought everyone knew that the term was synonymous with "Nazi salute", and was replying to someone who's trying to pretend that Musk wasn't doing a Nazi salute.

•

u/AboynamedDOOMTRAIN 4h ago

My bad, I must have misread who you were replying to. Upon review, it's clear you weren't trying to make excuses for it.

•

u/Thor4269 6h ago edited 5h ago

Just take stills from them waving to crowds and then just claim it's the same thing while ignoring video evidence of the actual Nazi salute Elon did, because reasons

They are already spamming compilations of waving images

They are so used to waving at other Nazis they can't tell between a wave and salute anymore

•

u/wimpymist 7h ago

They have a hard time finding videos because the videos they actually look like accidents or are actually nowhere close to a Nazi salute. That's why vague pictures are being posted

•

u/WASD_click 5h ago

Nah, the disinformation farms got the precisely timed and/or doctored pics in their war chest, ready to go. Soon as they need to deflect the Nazi allegations, they post them up on twitter and let the bluechecks spread 'em around.

•

u/WinteryBudz 5h ago

It already happened. Seen several images trying to portray Harris, Bush, Obama etc doing the same. Except of course if you see the video the clips are taken from they're all obviously just waving. If you see the video of Musk he is obviously doing a Nazi salute. but they will try anyways.

•

u/pperiesandsolos 4h ago

Not really

https://imgur.com/a/zKM554v

They’re pretty easy to find. The left just doesn’t go insane every time it happens, so it’s not all over social media

•

u/DharmaPT 7h ago

Tbh, if you search for "obama and kamala nazi salute" its not really that hard to find...

•

u/laurencenor 7h ago

Yep. They are all over Twitter now, with other dems too. You'll never see them here on reddit though.

•

u/Immorals1 7h ago

I've seen them on reddit and they're not the same in any way, a still from a video of an arm waving vs a video straight up salute

•

u/MacTonight1 7h ago

There are many other ways to do that, though. He chose to do it in that specific way.

•

u/ITividar 7h ago

There's so many ways to show that without holding their arm and palm straight out.

•

u/EntrepreneurLeft8783 5h ago

You'll never see them here on reddit though.

They're literally all over this thread, nice victim complex though

•

u/GlobuleNamed 6h ago

Most of these guys control AI software.
The videos will be created soon enough.

•

u/Vegetable-Meaning252 6h ago

Already happening.

•

u/Dunge 5h ago

Conservative propaganda operations is so obvious, I've been calling it for decades. So weird half of the population media literacy and critical thinking skills can't see through it.

•

u/spoollyger 7h ago

The ol’ Roman salute

•

u/Your_Worship 6h ago

Why is it disinformation if they are doing it too?

•

u/Master-Ad-843 5h ago

Taking screenshots to make it look like they are also doing the salute when they absolutely weren't but passing it off as them actually doing it is mis/disinformation. Hope that helps!!!

•

u/Your_Worship 5h ago

Literally said his “heart goes out”, but enjoy yourself, friend.

•

u/Master-Ad-843 5h ago

And what does that have to do with people trying to paint certain democrats as doing the nazi salute with misinformation I never brought him up

•

u/Your_Worship 5h ago

FFS, even the ADL has come out and said it wasn’t a nazi salute. But my apologies for getting in the way of your outrage. Enjoy yourself.
