      Yeah, but other than one of the largest Jewish advocacy groups who else is defending him? What would the ADL know about antisemitism anyway?

      Yeah… this and other organizations concluded that he didn’t perform a nazi salute… so what’s the deal? Why are so many sources still saying he did nazi salute?

      Right after he did that, he said, “My heart goes out to you.” And later denied again.

      Why such a smear campaign?

        You really have to be fucking brainwashed to believe that shit. HE DID IT TWICE IN A ROW THE EXACT SAME WAY

        Not only did he do it twice in a row the same exact way, but he did a Nazi salute in the exact same manner as Adolf Hitler did and modern neo-nazis do. Zero chance that it was a mistake, it was obviously intentional.

        No one can tell me that my eyes didn’t see a Nazi salute when they did see it as plain as day.

        What’s REALLY fucked up is that people like you are still defending a Nazi salute. You are a Nazi apologist.

          Tell me… why would he intentionally do a nazi salute? For what purpose? To secretly identify himself as a nazi? But it wasn’t secretly at all…

          He even later denied it was a nazi salute… so… wtf!!!

          Why are you people so crazy about this issue?

            Your gaslighting attempts are pathetic. As I already said, no one can tell me that my eyes didn’t see what they saw, plain as fucking day.

        Just FYI. Also, notice the date. It’s 10 months old and they updated the thumbnail because of how obviously correct they were. Elon Musk was born white and rich in apartheid era south Africa. His family migrated there from Canada after ww2 specifically because the race dynamics at the time. He openly touts blatantly eugenic ideology, fathers 12 children and freezes his sperm because of that ideology. Him doing a nazi salute and making nazi jokes in the aftermath is him just waving his dick around because he knows there’s an army of fucking empty headed dumb fucks that will defend him.

        Because most people learned the fucking lesson that there is ZERO justification. Inexcusable even as a mistake for someone in that position no matter how he got there, and inexcusable to dismiss it.

          What “lesson”? So, even if unintentional, any salute even similar to the nazi salute should call for condemnation?

          The mainstream media are pushing this hard as hell, just raking Elon over the coals.

          So many here have lost the plot

        Many sources are saying he did a nazi salute because, wait for it… He did a nazi salute.

        Do you have a source for him denying it?

        I saw lots of deflection and incredulity at “liberals” who thought it was a Nazi salute, but I didn’t actually see any denial.

        He won’t deny it. Not because he’s not willing to lie, but because he’s actively courting the support of Nazis.
