They know it is, this is standard gaslighting, and wherever they do this it should be pointed out together with a video showing it side by side. So far I did not get response from them after that.
Yep, same thing happened when Laura Ingraham got carried away and did a Hitler salute. Not sure if that time she got the ADL to bat for her tho.
I looked up that video to see what she looked like doing it, and that looked way more accidental than Musk's. I think she confused herself and did a mix between a stiff wave and pointing at the crowd, which she then started actually doing. That's my take.
Disclaimer, I don't even know who this Laura is, so this is strictly unbiased.
Nah, she started doing it and then transitioned to a wave to keep plausible deniability.
Nah, she didn't.
Whatever you need to tell yourself. Question, did you also think it was a coincidence when cpac had the Odal rune stage a few years later?
Just using the same argumentative style that you are. I'm giving you details into how I believe it wasn't on purpose. You just say "nah, she did it", so I say "nah, she didn't". 🤷♂️
I don't know nothing bout no cpac or what Odal rune stage is. Don't know what the fuck that is.
Have a good day, son.
Edit: never mind, you're someone else who I wasn't taking to in the first place. 👍
Still, have a good day.
Not even the same person lol.
Odal rune stage
Whether or not you think she did a Nazi salute, it's close enough that it doesn't matter. Especially with a decade of other COMPLETELY COINCIDENTAL Nazi references and allusions by the Republican party. Shit, people were calling out the Nazi references in Trump's campaignimg in 2015 even through to 2024.
The republican party gets no benefit of the doubt with Nazi accusations. Because they're full of Nazis and fascists.
E:spelling
Yep, see my edit. 👍
Fair enough. 👍 At this point I'm just exhausted by the fact that America voted for this shit and so it's what they and the rest of the world is dealt now for the coming 4 years. Just gotta bite this brown banana and like it. What else can we do. Worse shit is to come, I'm sure. This is the first week and it's already going to shit.
I'm just glad I live relatively far away.
