There’s no debate since the first second. Why are we still talking about it?
There's no debate but we do need to be loud about what happened because mask-off Nazi shit cannot be ignored. Especially not when the entire media ecosystem has decided to preemptively lie down and let this go down as an 'awkward gesture'
Cause it's not ok. At all.
Fair enough, thank you. I’m…tired.
Dig deep. Don't let the bastards win
I hear you. I feel that.
oh there is debate. some fanboys are still in the denial phase. if they can convince themselves it's not what it is, they don't have to re-evaluate their life choices.
this whole thing reminds me of former fans speaking up in Marilyn Manson: Unmasked . he was their idol and was able to appear extremely reasonable. they thought that's the real him and everything else is just show. they looked up to him, but then it turns out he's not just a harmless jokingly bizarre attention whore, but actually dangerous and the reasonable appearance is just one of his masks. it took some of them years to understand what actually happened.
ADL frame it as an overly enthusiastic wave or something. Lots and lots of people frame it as wrong angle.
The ADL is literally a propaganda mouthpiece for Israeli interests in the United States.
Maybe we should ask some American rabbis, since they typically are true to themselves.
Seriously. The big news for the first two days was the stupid salute, meanwhile trump signed 100+ executive orders and news was slow on the uptake.
That's why he did it.
Misdirection.
Dead cat in action
Because people are still defending it.
It's important to understand that for most of them? They're lying. They know. They don't believe in truth, they believe in fascism.
Some people think Musk has denied it being a Nazi salute.
