Did Elon Musk make a Nazi salute?

Was Elon Musk's gesture a Nazi salute?

No idea what your snark means. Do you think I was defending Elon's gesture? How does that follow from what I've commented so far?

Roman salute - Wikipedia https://search.app/kqRWfqrJjjkSJZCU9
Sounds mighty disingenuous of you when he was obviously pandering to his audience, wouldn't one think, given his past statements and those of his parents. He's made no secret of them, thus his appeal to the AfD so soon before the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz.

Disingenuous? I have been indicating Musk did a Roman Salute, aka NZI one. Do you consider using the term Roman Salute minimizes what it is/was representing in recent history? Hitler's ilk uses/uses the Roman salute...

Maybe get to know how I post before slamming me & my comments? I work hard at dealing with facts & misinformation and disinformation.
 
Not a Nazi salute.
LOL Walz did the exact same gesture, so by your logic he is also a Nazi.
Don't know.
Why does it matter?
Well it matters to you or otherwise you would not have replied. lol
What say I?

Take a look at that face ... it's a power gesture.

Of course, context being king, no less performed during a pro-right political rally. Daresay, Nazi-like..... in form and fashion.
Then Obama, Hillary and AOC are Nazis too. Thanks for admitting it.
He was making a gesture that was intended to send a message that nazis would interpret as a nazi salute, while remaining ambiguous enough so that an argument it wasn't that could be made semi-plausibly.

I suspect that he practiced it for awhile, to get it just right, and the reaction and discussion are more or less what was desired, because a bunch of people are talking about it.
I suspect you practiced writing this moronic reply for awhile, after you fantasized about it.
Context is everything sometimes.

One can assume the four Democrats didn't give a Nazi salute as they didn't espouse or support Nazism. They are on record for being anti-Nazi.

Musk, on the other hand, has a history of not condemning and sometimes supporting persons who are ok with fascism/Nazism/white nationalism...so its not hard to come to that conclusion.
Really? Please show proof that Musk espoused Nazism.

Walz did not use the exact same gesture.

AMERIKKKA!
 
Every kid who raised their arm in school I guess were giving the Nazi salute. 🤣
The left will do or say anything in their bid for power. ;)

😏
Only if I was desperate enough to equate basic communicative gestures to a power salute.

This claim just goes around and around no matter how many times it is explained.

Some here look at that gesture along with his words to the AfD in Germany say - "there's a Good Billionaire Guy" and others do the same and think "it's dangerous to have him be so close to the US President".
 
No, he was just waving at us, and we are all so far away he had to raise his hand high!

Seriously, no he was not making a Nazi salute, he was tossing his heart out as he said just before making the motions that Dems called a nazi salute.


Showing all those Democrats making that Nazi salute certainly alerts us to who the real threats to our form of government are though. ;)
Is that why he addressed an ADF rally yesterday?
 
Well it matters to you or otherwise you would not have replied. lol
Really?

Why does it matter to you then, that he may or may not have done a Nazi salute?
Are you for or against the Nazi salute?
 
I suspect you practiced writing this moronic reply for awhile, after you fantasized about it.
Nah, I only spent 5-10 minutes on it at most, while playing a video game.
 
Well, that's stupid. Intent matters.
So unless you shout Heil Hitler it could be you are just raising your arm. I agree. (y)
So this is all lefty rhetoric trying to make something out of nothing. ;)

Do you have to do it in an over-exaggerated movie German accent too?

I mean, if we are making up requirements out of thin air, lets have some fun with it.

When you're a white supremacist, like Musk is, it's a Nazi salute, every time.

Might as well. It is all nothing but lefty fantasy anyway attempting to cover up the fact Trump is fixing the mess Biden and Harris made in the last 4 years.

Good luck with that narrative. I suspect it will age poorly.
 
What say you?

Lol for all the ones on the bottom, you mean right wingers have been sitting on videos of Hillary doing Sieg Heil and only decided to talk about it now?

Or are you dishonestly comparing still photos of people waving to someone who actually did two unmistakeable Sieg Heils? Who not only chose not to apologize and clear up what he was actually doing, but proceeded to make Nazi jokes about it and then proceeds to make friends with the German far-right AfD?

I honestly don't give a shit. The left's constant screaming about far-rightism, fascist and nazism are so pedantic and overwrought that people have become deaf to it. The abuse of language is appalling and just a further symptom of the left's disarray. Come up with something new.

If he's a real Nazi we will find out soon enough, hand gesture or not. We typically need more evidence than a hand gesture to condemn someone.

so how desperate are you?

Some people are just dumb, and theyre called libs.

No wonder its such a moronic post. Keep being you.
Show the videos...
Here you go, one Nazi that you so love coming right up! why do Danes love Nazis? Because theyre in the EU.

Agreed!

I don't think he's a real Nazi. I think he thinks he's clever.

His support for the German Nazi Party is based more on their regulatory stance than there Nazi ideology. So if anything, he's simply trying to normalize the Nazis. I don't think he would have a problem if they imposed their race laws on society. I wouldn't want to count in him for support if they started deporting any Jews left in Germany or from anywhere else.
