    Wouldn’t a Nazi that thought Musk is also a Nazi be saying that it is a Nazi salute?

    I don’t think devils advocates or people that see life as shades of grey rather than black and white are default Nazi’s, but I understand that the US is an emotionally turbulent place right now.

    Full stop lol

      May I ask, if someone were to make a gesture indistinguishable from a Nazi salute, what would be necessary to convince you it was, in fact, a Nazi salute?

        When they do it while goose-stepping.

        Here, people are arguing that this wasn’t intentionally a nazi salute. But throw in the goose-step and there be absolutely no room for doubt.

        To me here, it very much looks like a nazi salute. But. The way he does it. I also could see someone arguing that he was going to dab, but fucked up and only did half the dab.

        You can almost see it with the energy he puts into it and appears that he’s about to look away, and his brain could’ve glitched or something. Just missing the other arm there, Elon.

        When my cat stretches, it kind of looks like a sieg hiel, I’m pretty convinced he’s not a nazi tho.
