Looked this up as I optimistically thought it might be an unfortunate still that looked nothing like a nazi salute on video, but nope.
Elon's Nazi salute
Here's a gif
Well, he must have fallen out of the headlines for a day.
I'm calling it, to keep outdoing himself he's going to openly and seriously start suggesting nuking things.
Trumps a fascist but I think he’s bluffing about nukes. He’s been consistently anti war since before entering politics and he knows he doesn’t want to be a king amongst rubble.
I think Trump is the kind of person who thinks the world is better off ending with him than going on without him. Nothing matters if he isn't there to enjoy it; the true heart of narcissism.
His anti-war stance such as... trying to incite a war with Iran, only failing to do so because his generals didn't cooperate? Those same generals he now is going to get rid of because he hasn't forgiven them for it? That anti-war stance?
The only times he's anti-war is when it pisses off Obama and/or makes Putin happy.
I mean hes old AF, living his remaining 2 years in a luxuary presidential bunker isn't that bad of a retirement plan.
Vance, however, probably doesn't want to live decades in some bunker, so the only way to stop a crazy nuke-happy fascist seems to be a less crazy fascist (via 25th amendment). 🤦♂️
"Mr. President, there was a nuclear detonation over Kiev"
"Did we do it?"
"No Sir, it seem to have been the Americans"
(obviously this conversation would be in Russian, but most of us here don't speak/read Russian so here's the English version)
"so yes"
Elon: If I can't nuke Mars, I will order Trump to nuke Earth instead.
I wouldn't put it past Musk to be planning on a nuke strike somewhere to boost investment in SpaceX. "See, life on earth is fragile, we have to be able to leave (if you're rich enough)!"
Something something bronterocs
Gotta love the Murdoch media...

If he did it once, sure could be argued to be accidental, but he did it pretty forcefully, multiple times, and he baaaaarely has plausible deniability that he didn't mean this as a wink wink to the neo-nazis.
Holy hell what even is this? Are they really comparing those photos of Biden and Harris to what Elon did?
Yep. Sky news is Australia's version of Fox news, so don't be too surprised. At this point there could be video of Elon chomping on a dead baby and they would still be saying "let's not take this out of context", "this is not what it looks like" and "what about that one time Biden ate something?". It's pathetic, but enough people unfortunately watch this crap.
I am actually speechless.
he adds "my heart goes out to you", so it was actually just Elon being really fucking stupid again
I litterly followed the same train But bro it's undeniable
Just... blatant. Plenty of time lingering on it. No cute pretending-to-fix-the-hair. Just an obvious, blatant nazi salute.
what was he saluting when he turned around? Trump? I cant find a better angle.
He's saluting the crowd for their support
Some of the audience was behind him. He just really wanted to get the message across 😒
I wish. 😞
What was the context, in terms of his speech? Did he say something right before this or after it?
"Thank you. My heart goes out to you. It is thanks to you that the future of civilization is assured, thanks to you." - Elon Musk
Then he did the seig heil salute. Just in case people are still confused, here's Hitler's own words from Mein Kampf on saving civilization.
"All the great civilizations of the past became decadent because the originally creative race died out, as a result of contamination of the blood." - Hitler
I don’t see much relationship between those two quotes. What confusion was that meant to dispel?
