    We’re back to opinion Vs fact, again!

    At the end of the day, until Musk comes out and says, “it was a Nazi salute and I’m a Nazi”, it will be up to opinion and everyone has a right to share their opinion.

    and I’m sure I know why you do it.

    I really don’t appreciate the insinuation but the least you could do is grow a pair, come out and say it.

        yup. A good intellectual test would be asking whether people would draw the same conclusion on intent about the gesture if:

        A) it were sexual coming from a person with a history of sexually harassing comments who provides a sexual joke for explanation B) it were a direct insult (like middle finger) from a person with a history of verbally abusive comments, who provides a fuckyou joke for explanation.

        People usually have very little difficulty judging the intent in those situations.

        If endorsing the freedom of speech makes you alt-right, then I guess I’m alt-right.
