      Yeah, I actually like Musk (I’m not liking the Nazi salute stuff) and I think he’s gonna clean a lot of house. I hope they name and shame all the waste too. Love it!

      • Isolated incident and blown way out of proportions. Impossible to know what he was thinking at the time, maybe it was meant as a ‘heart to you’ gesture or just a ‘look at me you fuckers’. Even if it was the latter (what I doubt) that doesn’t make you a nazi.
        Whatever it was, it did result in exactly what you would expect. MSM is freaking out, but I am pretty sure that even the most leftwing nutcase (Europe is full of them) understands he is not looking to kill 6 million Jews or Muslims.

        It does distract from DOGE though, and that’s what we need the most. Kick out all the useless bureaucrats, regulations and appreciate people that produce instead of leech.

          It doesn’t matter if what he was thinking because a Nazi salute is a Nazi salute. It doesn’t matter if he didn’t mean to do a Nazi salute. Anyways, that’s just speculation. Normal people know not to do Nazi salutes… and frankly if he did this on the street he would have his brains bashed in already…

        I don’t think he did a Nazi salute. I think it was Elon being a dip shit. The problem is the left calls everything Nazis, so it’s hard to know what a Nazi is anymore.

            The Nazi salute to not a slap to the chest while talking about your heart.

            This is a case where you see what you want to believe even if it’s not the truth

                @yourgodlucifer @wintermute_oregon

                Not a slap, that’s moving the hand out level.

                Musk was flat on the chest, then hand moved out upwards.

                It’s stuff like the Leftist freakout over this that makes ordinary people realize they’re insane.

                We are going to have to throw Leftists out of helicopters. It’s not retribution, it’s eugenics!

                  Look again the guy in the middle put his hand on his chest.

                  Saying:

                  It’s stuff like the Leftist freakout over this that makes ordinary people realize they’re insane.

                  And then following it with:

                  We are going to have to throw Leftists out of helicopters. It’s not retribution, it’s eugenics!

                  Like that’s not an absolutely insane thing to say lol. Throw me out of a helicopter for wrong-think I guess.

                It doesn’t matter what they think. lol. Hell the Nazi party supported Biden. Does that mean all democrats are Nazis? I swear the Nazi fetish of the left is weird.

                  Moving the goal post I see. Why can’t you just admit that elon did a Nazi salute?

                  If actual Nazis think that it counts as a Nazi salute I don’t see how you can continue to deny that is what elon was doing. Besides elon has other things that point to him being a Nazi.

                  Most Nazis support trump not the democrats any endorsement coming from a Nazi to the democrats is likely a troll but regardless the fact is trumps polices are more in line with what a neo Nazi would want.

                  Do you really think Nazis aren’t in favor of mass deportation? Do you think that Nazis are in favor of DEI? Do you think that Nazis like transgender people?

                  We bring the comparison to the Nazis because the parallels are there. If you want to bury your head in the sand then so be it.
