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

          Are you saying we shouldn’t believe our lying eyes? It was a Nazi salute and the emperor has no clothes.

        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.

          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.

          Also, it’s pretty wild that absolutely zero effort has been made “correcting” all the actual card-carrying nazis who celebrate every major action that Musk makes, from restoring their accounts on social media to boosting their memes and messages for years now. There’s clips out there of people with swastika tattoos sieg-heiling recordings of Musk’s “awkward gesture” and they look exactly the same.

          Tell us again how we shouldn’t trust our own eyes. I think there was a book somewhere that talked about this. I’d recommend looking into it.

          If someone takes a shit in your mouth and tells you it was a birthday cake, will you trust them just because they’re an “organization?” Jesus christ and you people call others “cucks” it drives me batty but you long since abandoned value to intellectual consistency when you started hoisting madmen and wealthy landlords as somehow better than other people.

          It’s amazing for a group that says all day long that they’re “free thinkers” there sure are a lot of people with mouths full of shit smiling because they’ve been told it’s birthday cake and they’re such special, good boys.

          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

      That’s because Isreal has been slowly co-opted by xenophobic right wing extramists under the guise of survival.
