Maybe trump is just the Paul von Hindenburg of our time, the real threat is someone who we don’t expect at all.

Show it in video you coward. A single frame is meaningless in this context.

In a post that only shows an image your comment is rather ironic.
ProtecyaTec@lemmy.world 2 months ago
Let’s see the videos side by side and vote on which one is the closest to a nazi salute / gesture.
Or go shill your propaganda somewhere else, maybe with the rest of the nazi sympathizers.
OceanSoap@lemmy.ml 2 months ago
You can look all of em up yourself. None of them are Nazi salutes

She’s clearly gesturing the idea of ‘looking ahead’ and ‘out there’. She had been doing so for a while, but the screen grab only grabs the one gesture where her hand happens to be flat.
Elon’s was clearly a salute, particularly since what he said his action was as he was doing it is the definition of a salute.
I want to thank you for making it happen
*salutes*
My heart goes out to you

Get out of here with your rationalism. Musk is a literal Nazi and we’re all going to die!!!

Fucking ADL coping hard lmao. The organisation that will call anything antisemite, and the best friend to Trump and the current government, is saying this isn’t nazi salute. Yet you think they’re credible?

Sadly a lot of EU states are staring down a similar barrel of mass-illiteracy and mass-stupidity being exploites via the rich controlling the media. Look at the rise of the AfD in Germany of all countries, for example.

Considering the audience is made up of right wing losers, you aren’t 100% wrong. He was giving a very special wave to the audience

I find that the people who use terms like “right wing loser” are indistinguishable from the people who use terms like “left wing loser”.

From Reuters:
The Anti-Defamation League, which tracks antisemitism, disagreed. “It seems that @elonmusk made an awkward gesture in a moment of enthusiasm, not a Nazi salute, but again, we appreciate that people are on edge,” it posted on Monday. In Germany, the president of the Jewish community in Munich and Upper Bavaria, Charlotte Knobloch, described the gesture as “highly irritating”. “Far more worrying are Elon Musk’s political positions, his offensive interference in the German parliamentary election campaign and his support for a party whose anti-democratic aims should be under no illusions,” she said in a statement.
Look if the extremely jumpy ADL doesn’t call it anti-Semitic it’s a real reach to call at a Nazi salute. And don’t tell me they are in on the conspiracy. Most politicians know better than to hold out their arms like that, Musk clearly does not.
sudo@programming.dev 2 months ago
The ADL serves Israel and only Israel and Trump is Shahanshah in Israel. Its a thoroughly discredited organization especially over the last year.
Trashboat@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 months ago
Watch the video. Look with your own eyes. It’s a Nazi salute.
itslilith@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 months ago
The ADL exists to peddle Zionism and conflate it with Antisemitism, and to defend Israel’s interests. Do not take them serious. Listen to other Jewish voices, like the Holocaust survivors who are actively warning about the US sliding into fascism for years now. This was absolutely meant as a Hitler salute, and to pretend otherwise is disingenuous
zmrl@lemmy.zip 2 months ago
Perhaps if it was in a vacuum but musk has openly shared Nazi propaganda on his social media site that he bought. The ADL is an organization I don’t trust
possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 2 months ago
In his defense I have done the Nazi salute a few times as a child. However, I never did it on national TV.
13esq@lemmy.world 2 months ago
What’s more likely?
A large proportion of Americans are very ready to be extremely upset and will look in to things that aren’t there, like a socially inept Musk appearing to make a Nazi salute.
Or
Musk intentionally made a Nazi salute.
I know it’s emotional times, but I think a huge amount of people aren’t thinking rationally.
Knock_Knock_Lemmy_In@lemmy.world 2 months ago
The second. He said thanks to his right wing supporters, twice.
tomi000@lemmy.world 2 months ago
I would like to rephrase your proposed options while preserving their real meaning:
-
The worlds richest man doesnt know what a Nazi salute look like and accidentally does it twice.
-
A Nazi does a Nazi salute.
I would say its around 1:99 in favor of number 2.
Also, it doesnt even really matter if he did it intentionally (which of course he did). Any sane person knows you dont do Nazi salutes in public, thats why other politicians dont do them even unintentionally.

1)the self proclaimed smartest man in the world somehow does not know what a nazi salute is and proceeds to not do the nazi salute 3times in a row very enthusiastically during the inaguration of a president who literally went to the white house to pardon people guilty of treason, covered in nazi tatoos and working in a nazi milita group. Pure coincidence he is very pro nazi parties in europe.
2)The most sound of mind and body man in the world who personally engineered spacex, tesla and hyperloop is has unfortunately lost control of his body and photographers captured it out of context. In a video. Where it happened 3 times in a row.
3)You elected into the office someone who did the nazi salute 3 times during the re election of a felon and a man who attempted a coup.

Ah someone level headed. That’s refreshing.
I thoroughly hate Musk, as so many of us, so I can understand the eagerness to misinterpret things in the worst way possible.

I agree, its very refreshing. When you really think about it hitler wasnt too bad either so I’m glad musk is doing a little nod to that.

So interesting thing to note from history, in many cases western people or nations pulled ahead by betraying non-western allies or peoples. The prosperity of the current globalist, neoliberal world is built on multicultural alliances.
Basically people like this are signaling to anyone who’s paying attention and has been keeping score of historical record “DONT TRUST US, WE WILL BETRAY YOU!!”. There’s just not enough economic activity in the western nations to uphold their current levels of activity and productivity without multicultural alliances, so this is an interesting turn.
Power is an interesting concept because a lot of it assumed on the part of those who claim, and those who relinquish it often don’t even realize the cards they hold because they’re gaslit into believing the lies of their opponents. What a shitty and annoying world, and here I was hoping for a Star Trek future in my lifetime.
Lastly, the whole “white supremacy” thing doesn’t make sense when there are people of Persian descent who are more Aryan than many white Europeans, so that’s a huge lol.

Is this getting much mainstream coverage or is it being ignored?
ZombiFrancis@sh.itjust.works 2 months ago
Mainstream coverage seems to have been trying to tell everyone everywhere not to believe their lying eyes.
Some appear to have modified their reporting to actually say it was a Nazi salute however, ostensibly under pressure.

I dont think Elon Musk is a nazi. I’ve never seen any evidence that he is a nazi nor have I ever seen any presented. I think he is an asshole that harasses people for his personal satisfaction. He is so rich that no matter what happens he, his children, and all their children will all enjoy the highest quality lives available. There may also be some chemical addiction mixed in there as well as some mental illness.
