Lol is the Elon response real of photoshopped? Man what an asshole if true. I mean, also asshole if not.
I’ve always suspected this man was a wolf in sheep’s clothing, but I was told I was overthinking it. I wonder if the ppl who told me that I was wrong remember doing so.
He’s laughing at them. He feels so safe.
What a shame if
He’s laughing with them, they’re out there gaslighting people for him.
I’d imagine Musk thinking everybody are laughing with him always because he is so desperate for validation and those that he can’t gaslight himself are with him is why he is a nazi.
I’d imagine Trump to laugh to himself with self indulgence of all his smarts, and mostly scoffing and despise everyone that supports him or not including those closest to him and his own family. Thinking of it, it’s not impossible he despises them all because they are supporting him. Idiots that allow themselves to be herded like sheep by a wolf like himself.
By all accounts I’ve heard, the man has no sense of humour at all and scarcely ever find anything funny. Fact is, we’re in this mess because he can’t take a joke.
In this case, they are. The AIPAC Defense League is dickriding Leon Skum because he’s in tight with the new furher, and both of them are cool with israel leveling Palestine.
These are one side of the same coin.
I’d feel pretty safe if I literally controlled the platform everyone was speaking on, too.
Reminder that Zionists like to collaborate with antisemites, in the hopes of accelerating emigration to Israel.
Wait, stop! I think I heard this story already.
Not so fun fact: early on Hitler was a zionist, or at least considered it a good “solution” to the “Jewish question” before he came up with the final solution.

remember guys, it’s only a nazi if they do a nazi salute while saying “heil hitler I’m a nazi kill all jews and other minorities” just like it’s only a racist if they’re burning a cross and yelling the hard R and saying “I’m a racist”, but only if they do it all at the same time. 2 out of 3 doesnt qualify.

Yes, and I agree with them. Musk is a disgusting racist Nazi asshole.

Friend, there’s no way you can convince anyone, especially not a German. Shuffle back into the shadows.
The same Germans that lock people up for calling the police Nazis… You’re proud of your pro-fascist state that resembles your Nazi beginnings?
Being proud of things you had nothing to do with is incredibly stupid. I’m happy to be here, yes, but what the fuck should I be proud of? I didn’t do it myself. And the rest of your message just shows how clueless you are of everything outside of your hate bubble. So, no, you won’t get to anger me.
Yes. At best, he is an apologist for Israel/Zionism which does not represent Jewish people as a whole. Zionists hated Holocaust victims and were Nazi collaborators.
they don’t like

Has Elon said it wasn’t a Nazi salute? No.
Afaik musk is yet to explicitly deny it. Laughing at adl doesn’t count
Have you seen the video? He did an unmistakable Nazi salute to the crowd, then turned around and did the same Nazi salute towards the USA flag. This was as Sieg heil as Nazi salutes come.

What the hell are you on about?
Elon Musk does an unmistakable Nazi salute, you claim he was just “waving”, despite there not even having been a waving motion, just the one swing from left shoulder to full extended right arm, which is a textbook Nazi salute. And now you come with whataboutism about Hamas and I don’t even know what’s the point of it.
What kind of troll are you?
What kind of troll are you?
A poor one.
Yeah, I already had him marked as a “both sides” troll lol.
I know you wanted to be sarcastic but you ended up not making any sense.
In no time ever has a Nazi gripped their heart like that before reaching out their hand. I just went through countless videos of fucking Nazis to confirm this. Stop spreading misinformation /disinformation
This needs to be auto-replied to every doubting asshole.
I’m doing my part manually 😛
So according to you, Elon Musk has his heart in his upper left side longue, close to his left shoulder. Sounds like one special kind of human.
And if that’s just waving, then why according to you did he wave to the American flag? Is that just how south-africans salute the usa flag, by “waving” at it?
And I also call bullshit on the claim of having watched countless videos. If you had, then you had seen a much greater variety of Nazi salutes. Nazis as they got older and/or higher in the Nazi hierarchy, they became sloppier with the Nazi salutes. Sometimes the mind is willing, but the body says no.
Nothing I say to explain further why it isn’t a Nazi salute won’t matter. It’s evident your bias will cloud any rational discourse.
I still would love to hear your explanation of why he is “waving” at the American flag.
So a Nazi salute has to be totally historically accurate for you to see it for what it is, but you can “give your heart” to an audience with a hand raised and downturned and you have no issue with that explanation? If you give, your hand is generally upturned. That is the gesture. Golly gosh I wonder why he did it that way instead 🤔🤔🤔 total mystery.

May i ask, why you spend so much time today defending musk doing the facist salute?
I mean you could have done many more productive things, why white knighting the allegedly richest man in the world?
Edit: I appreciate the vote count and the moderators leaving my comments up. I want to dial it back though. I’ve eaten my annual allotment of troll bait and I want to dial back my rage at stupidity.
Who knows what someone is going through any given day. I was less kind than usual bc I’m stressed out like everyone is, so maybe so is this other person. I’m bowing out and saving my susceptibility to rage bait for actual Nazis.

Fucking doubt that.
I didn’t say any of that I just said he definitely meant to do a Nazi salute.
Okay, prove it. Tell everyone how one of the biggest supporters of the Jewish state plans to eliminate Jews.
Why would I need to prove something I didn’t say?
You can do a Nazi salute without wanting to exterminate all Jews. Learn some nuance.
That’s just called moving your arm dude.
They’ve done a number on you brother
Cool. What is your walkaround for the crap he’s pulling in Germany’s politics right now, with their far right?
He can be both a nazi, and not do the back salute? Not sure 😂
He did the salute. And talked about the Great Replacement Theory. And endorsed the fucking AfD. And named himself Kekius Maximus.
He’s a Nazi, Jack, wake up.
If this kind of greeting is so much in your standard repertoire that you just accidentally without thinking go for it in such a moment… Then it is not the “stupid PC police trying to claim everything is offensive”. It is offensive. Which normal person does that?
Edit: I mean, seriously, look at this

Elon could come out in a SS uniform and you’d probably just suggest he’s really into historical reenactment, give me a fuckin break.
You really love to role play Nazi fantasies in your head don’t you? It is called projection. You are projecting your fascism.
Ok so this is just low effort trolling. Bye.

I can totally see the difference. One is in colour and the other is in black & white. Ergo, not a Nazi salute. Got it.
Nice gaslight attempt.
Context matters. This is a man futzing around with the far right in Germany, specifically, right now. The movement made is sharp, exact. It is what it looks like it is.

More like that guy hanging out in the Nazi bar…
-“Does he say he’s a nazi?”
No, but he does the nazi salute.
-“tHaT doesn’t prove anything!!!”

The part of Gul Madred will now be played by timewarp@lemmy.world.
To which I say to you: THERE ARE FOUR LIGHTS.
Don’t be a Gul. It’s not cool.
“HR: Have they said they are a Nazi or that they hated Jews?”
And here I am, 45 years old and never accidentally made this motion. How unlikely of me.
“Everyone does these things, sometimes it just a slip of the tongue.”
“I’ve never once done a Hitler salute accidentally, nor said the N word in a heated gamer moment.”
“You’re just weird, everyone is a closeted racist like I am!”
Yeah very different motions. Makes people look pathetic to focus on a hand movement.
Go into work today and do this to everyone you see then. And don’t half ass it. Straight arm, hand down, up at an angle. Direct eye contact too.
Hahaha, just wtf. You’re just trolling, I get it, it can be fun.

Nah, it’s cool, no need to double down. I get what you are doing.
“Guys, guys. Since Musk isn’t from Germany, he’s not a Nazi! It’s just sparkling fascism! Totally different!”
Never trust someone with two first names. Been following that advice my entire life and I’ve yet to find an exception, they’re always a piece of shit and usually prove that very quickly.
What? That’s just Hitler doing an awkward gesture.
made an awkward gestureforgot he wasn’t supposed to do the Nazi salute in public in a moment of enthusiasm…
FTFYForgot? Why should he care? There appear to be no repercussions to his behaviour.
Unfortunately, it seems these people can do whatever the hell they want.
He wasn’t doing a Nazi salute. He’s literally trolling you all and you’re all falling for it.
ask the trump why his hand wasn’t on the bible during oath
I’m assuming it would catch on fire, no?
Because the event was indoors, the fire marshal wouldn’t allow it.
It’s the rule of goats:
If you screw a goat ironically, you still screwed a goat.
Stop gaslighting.
"He didn’t mean for it to be a Nazi salute, he just wanted it to look like a Nazi salute. You know, to troll people who don’t like Nazis "
He’s literally just a cringe edgelord desperate for attention. And people keep giving him exactly what he wants.

Hey if you’re trolling you should check out the !chadmctruthstruth@lemmy.world community, I think you’d like it.
Explain me how this is trolling people. Hahaha I’ll just do a little gesture that seems exactly like a nazis salute…to troll some liberals.
Soooooo many Nazis to tag on Lemmy today
Lot of businesses backed up Hitler and his Nazis too.
A lot of them even came out of that whole situation in pretty good shape.
IBM, Coke, and Ford had no issues doing business in nazy germany, even if they were under a different name. Business only cares about steady and growing revenues/margins no matter how it comes about it.
The most important lesson I learned in Hebrew school was that the Holocaust would have not been possible without IBM.
Nothing will meaningfully improve until the rich fear for their lives

The ADL has been in Trump’s pocket ever since he moved the US Embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem
Musk attended Netanyahu’s visit to Congress. And Musk went to Israel for a propaganda tour of oct7.
Fun fact zero babies were shot in their crib on oct7
What the hell is happening in this photo?
Is that a crib on a shopping cart? Umbrella vests? Musk wearing Taci-cool wear?
If I didn’t know any better, I’d say this was made up to mock Musk and Israel.
Israel made up a thousand lies about Hamas doing things which never happened to manufacture consent for the genocide. No Western media really covered that they were all lies after it turned out to be fake and everyone just kinda ignored that and moved on.
This Israeli reporter covered it quite well https://youtu.be/jp4uLjCztfI
This photo makes my skin crawl.
I don’t know who adl is but this is correct. he actually was going off on the us putting astronaughts on mars because he wants trump to funnel money to his company. He was making all these broad gestures and we are going to put a flag here and here. honestly I practically would have prefered a straight out nazis salute.
He thumped his chest and did it emphatically. Then he turned around and did it again. The only way it could’ve been more nazilike is if he stomped while he did it
yeah. sorry if it sounded like he did not its just his whole thing went into this america fuck yeah type of thing that followed in lets get people on mars which worries me more as I hear a big sucking of tax money sound from him. what he was going on about would cost someone (cough us) trillions and not just one. many many. but yeah why that is his go to excitement gesture is pretty disturbing.
ADL is a German fascist party.
you would think they would be more pro nazis salute.
That’s AfD.
Oh, my bad.

Dude, watch the video, it’s like 10 seconds long. He does the salute, twice. Not in a “oh this could be construed as something else”, but a full on seig heil. Twice.
He then posted the video of himself doing it on Twitter. Not with any explanations or defense of his actions, just the video.
He gave a Nazi salute and is proud of it. And idiots like you are scrambling to try and give him the benefit of the doubt when literally no doubt exists.
This is the essence of doublespeak: contradictions in the smallest possible footprint, laid out glaringly and consumed with eager approval.
That’s what you’re doing literally right now. Dude makes a clear Nazi salute and you’re like “naaah surely the ADL can’t be wrong” like no fuck the ADL and their lies.
Reposting someone else’s gif becsuse it is so perfect.
Mate, he did the nazi salute twice. If it was a still image you might be able to believe that it was an unintentional part of a larger gesture, but the video shows what it is. It’s a nazi salute. If you don’t want to be compared to nazis, maybe don’t do the nazi salute?

The ADL exposed themselves as a hate group 14 months ago
If Elon walked out wearing a red arm band with a swastika, the ADL would be talking about its history as a Hindu symbol.
“Mr. Musk has provided us with another delicate moment, demonstrating the ancient Roman salute combined with a Hindu symbol. It appears that the talk about gas chambers was a bit of an awkward slip, and it’s best we do not further aggravate the division of our nation.”
