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.

Never forget that the ADL spied on American citizens for Apartheid South Africa on behalf of Israel during the Reagan administration.

on behalf of Israel
Not exactly a good argument to discredit them saying it is not a nazi salute. An organization working on behalf of israel is unlikely to support nazi behaviors, no?
I’m not making any claims about the ADL beyond having some serious doubt that they would go along with nazi-ism.
Count042@lemmy.ml 14 hours ago
This was a literal investigated criminal case, this isn’t supposition.
Your serious doubts is nothing more than ignorance.

Israel has a complex relationship with Nazis.
During WW2, the Lehi terrorist organization actually tried to join in the war on the side of the Nazis.
One of the men behind this initiative went onto become prime minister of Israel in the early 1980s.
The Lehi terrorist organization folded into the IDF in 1949.
Now, there was a philosopher who was a member of Lehi, he took Nazi ideology and sort of swapped master race and the undesirable race. God’s chosen people had to be the master race, and the Arabs who lived in on the land were declared to be undesirable.
As a note, the Lehi prime minister was Netanyahu’s political mentor.

Historically, yes.

The ADL is atrocious. I’m Jewish. This was a variation of a Nazi salute.
Also, Zionist and Nazi propaganda have quite the overlap about “chosen people” and “master race”. It never sat well with me as a kid which is why I became antizionist around age 10 or so.

The ADL are defenders of genocide. Is it any wonder they’d be pro-Nazi?

If Elon walked out wearing a red arm band with a swastika, the ADL would be talking about its history as a Hindu symbol.

If it was a genuine mistake he would have sincerely apologised. Only a nazi doesn’t apologise to making a nazi salute.

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.

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.

Who/what is ADL?
ALoafOfBread@lemmy.ml 21 hours ago
Anti-Defamation League. Basically a zionist organization that goes after anything they percieve as being anti-semitic. Their definition of anti-semitic typically seems to include vocally supporting Palestine & not supporting Israel.
Part of what makes this noteworthy is they call anti-semitism often in dubious cases where it is not present - so them defending Elon sieg heiling multiple times is unusual.
harrys_balzac@lemmy.dbzer0.com 19 hours ago
It used to be Anti-Defamation League but it’s looking more like AIPAC Defense League.
bdonvr@thelemmy.club 20 hours ago
They’re an organization that calls out antisemitism.
Problem is saying anything against Israel, or pro-Palestine will get you on their public list of antisemites, along side your local neo-nazi militia members.
It’s Zionist propaganda and intimidation.
FreakinSteve@lemmy.world 17 hours ago
So they’re a Nazi organization
ImplyingImplications@lemmy.ca 21 hours ago
Anti-Defamation League. They’re a non-profit political group that state their mission is to combat anti-Semitism. They’re mostly a pro-Isreal group.
Count042@lemmy.ml 13 hours ago
They spied for a foreign government. They should have been required to register as foreign agents and the only reason they didn’t was because the foreign government was Israel. Instead they just had to notify the US citizens they spied upon that they spied upon them, and what they discovered.
evidences@lemmy.world 21 hours ago
ADL stands for Anti Defamation League, the first paragraph on the about us page on their website reads.
ADL is the leading anti-hate organization in the world. Founded in 1913, its timeless mission is “to stop the defamation of the Jewish people and to secure justice and fair treatment to all.”

Regardless of if he intended to do a Nazi salute or not exposing the public to that level of cringe should be a capital offense.

If I didn’t know any better, I’d say this was made up to mock Musk and Israel.

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.
intensely_human@lemm.ee 17 hours ago
That’s literally not what this picture depicts.
They’re not “defending a nazi salute”. They’re saying the awkward gesture wasn’t one.
This community exists by the sloppy perception of its readers. You want to be surrounded by Nazis (clearest form of moral imperative from history — for those who’ve only scratched the surface of studying history — providing an easy direction for your life) so badly that you’re willing to ignore the evidence directly in front of your eyes.
The screenshot in this post literally disproves the claim in the title. This is the essence of doublespeak: contradictions in the smallest possible footprint, laid out glaringly and consumed with eager approval.

Also remember it’s in Israel’s best interest to conflate Jews with zionists and make people worldwide hate Jews so they make Aaliyah to Israel and create babies for the IDF. Also the goal of the “birthright” program (what a fascist name right?!)
