Mask off Musk on
His fortune is built on seed money from apartheid south africa. How is it news he has a nazi fetish?
It's not news to anyone paying attention, but that weird Tesla fanatic uncle is going to find it a bit harder to rationalise an actual unambiguous world-famous Nazi gesture. We've even got those worshippers over here, and anyone reasonable who was on the fence with their pro-Musk proselyting can't overlook something this clear.

We're already seeing their responses in the wild. They're just denying it was a Nazi salute. And playing the "woke cancel culture leftists are taking him out of context" card.
They can and will ignore it.
No shit, he actually did haha
Or he fucked up his dab
Not even a well-executed one either. I suppose back in the dark days he would be beaten up for this performance/disrespect to the Führer.
Stunning is also the TV commentary going in the direction of he had no idea it was the Hitler salute (to be fair two weeks prior he called Hitler a communist in a talk/interview with the chancellor candidate of the German neonazi party) ...
Not knowing a thing about a movement that killed millions and happened within the last 100 years is bad. Being rich doesn't mean being educated & civil.
If you've seen any leaked footage from neo-Nazi orgs, they're surprisingly garbage at performing the salute. It's actually amazing.
there are 2 salutes in the USA, o7 and hand over heart. This was very explicitly what it "appears to" be, and there is no excuse.
I've always wondered what o7 was all about, thanks.
you are welcome~

I cannot understand the true believers. The people who are saying (1) its a Roman salute or (2) its a "My heart goes out to you" gesture.
They can twist themselves into knots with any other conspiracy theory, but cannot imagine the richest/smartest man to ever exist could figure out how to throw out a plausibly deniable Nazi salute.
This is Sideshow Bob explaining his DIE BART DIE tattoo.
We are being gaslit by half a country. That was a Nazi salute.
The fact that he's a Nazi shouldn't be a surprise to anyone. He's named after a character in a book written by a very famous Nazi, his fortune comes from Apartheid South Africa, his grandfather was a leader of a pro-Hitler fascist movement in the '30s and '40s.
So at what point do you actually become a Nazi is it when start doing the seig heils or do you need to be like goose stepping down the street first?
Just in case you were unclear. Although some people will pretend to be confused and that this is ambiguous.
I hope this finally persuades most European companies to "𝕏-it".
Death to amerikkka
I'm glad one news site has the guts to say it
Genocide Joe & Kamala Cheney must be really proud
