For once he’s doing it wrong, not that it matters, and secondly he looks like he came while doing it.
Ackthually, he is doing the Bellamy Salute (still wrong, but more like that than the nazi one)
Yeah, the topic drove me to a rabbit hole and I got to learn a lot of different Roman (Fascist) salutes
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_salute
TL:DR is, Bellamy is the american nazi salute and the sieg hail is the nazi nazi salute. So they are pretty different from each other as one can see.
Wait… that really happened? Reality just never stops to surprise me.
This was one of the most insane scenes in a game I’ve ever seen. I love this game
What game is that?
Wolfenstein 2
Time to play it, if you kill the Nazis ofc
a fucking masterpiece, btw
I wonder how trump feels that the most viral thing about his inauguration wasn’t him
If he has any sense that overcomes his pride, he should be grateful that someone else is taking some flak for him.
Reminder that Fox News declared Michelle Obama a terrorist over a fist bump.
Yeah, that’s undeniably obvious what it is
This is becoming a meme.
Used by the left to attack Musk. Used by the right to praise him.
The left and the right, the only two kinds of people in the world. Two homogeneous groups, two hive minds
God I hate those labels
How would you describe yourself? Labels are useful
This was my own reaction.
The ADL is defending him. Bootlickers.
the ADL is a zionist organization that supports genocide. they’re not bootlickers. they’re the sole of the boot itself.
ADL do not care about anti semitism at all. Their only concern is anti zionism.
Just when I thought the ADL couldn’t be anymore useless, here’s REAL Anti-Semitism and they’re not doing anything about it.
I mean, i didn’t have Latina’s calling it nazi and Jews being like “nuh uh” on my 2025 bingo card
They just figure that this time, Jews will be far down enough on the list of “first they came for…” that MAGA will burn itself out before it gets to them.
That’s sadly a viable strategy if you’re cis.
Fuck the ADL
I was on the fence about them for past shenanigans but this is the final nail in the coffin. My friends are now telling me that musk did not, in fact do a Nazi salute because his fingers weren’t pointed the right way
Ask your friends why they’re so familiar with the proper performance of the nazi salute.

yes i’m a bit of a troll, but stillYou should get footage of all those moments. Be neat to see em all lined up. Write up a nice summary of the context for each one.
Googled it earlier to see, says the heart motion is never involved, that’s the American pledge salute
Nobody does the Bellamy salute anymore and I want you think think very hard about why.
No need to think. One can just read:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bellamy_salute
Also:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_salute (also known as Fascist salute)
Show me a video of them throwing and holding any kind of salute and not waving. You can skip Hillary.
What’s that mean, skip the one you know I’d find first? Whatever, bud, done here with you.
Point one finger upwards at their face.
You guys are lucky to have AOC. I’m a non-American that only knows her from memes and screenshots like this but I’m a fan. Especially compared to all the other dead fish.
If she isn’t the next Dem presidential candidate, then they might as well shut their fucking doors right now.
If I was her I would be leaving the country tonight
the ADL
Anti-Defamation League, a Jewish non-governmental organization based in the USA
… will now be known as the “Advanced Defamations League”
these gas lights aren’t even lit. why are you making such a big deal?
this is obviously sarcasm
Are their last words going to be “see? You were overreacting.” right before someone pushes a button on their gas chamber?
Or have they already booked their tickets to some recently-confiscated house in the West Bank?
Same ADL that says anti-genocide protests are categorically foreign agents funded by Iran and Hamas.
Disappointing that the only funding they gave my local protest was sidewalk chalk and some home printed flyers to tape up.
Our times Henry Ford, I guess
Well, get ready for a whole lot of gaslighting. He’s going to say that’s not what he was doing and his lil army of trolls are going to toe the line.
He says he was doing the Roman salute, but that’s exactly where the nazis got it so…
Where does he say it’s the Roman salute? That’s litterally the exact same thing as the Nazi salute.
Spot on. We all know exactly what we saw. But…
“This is just a distraction from [the class war / taxes / Russia / China / the Koreas / India / … ]!”
“Allegedly, he seemingly did a gesture that resembles a fascist salute. He could’ve been having a heart attack and pointing at a paramedic. You don’t know.”
“It’s a tic. He’s had it since he was a child. I read about it on this random screenshot of a news article from 2018.”
“The Roman Salute, as it is known amongst historians, can be seen in many statues. Here’s a link to one. Things have history, Alex. God. Not everything is nazis.”
“So his views are a little extreme. Most people would argue they’re vile. I certainly don’t agree with them, but people. Please. Civility and decorum must rule. I’d fight for his right to blahblahblah…"
“I’m sorry; we can’t hear you over our Economic Anxiety. Groceries are too expensive and people are homeless! That’s why we elected nazis. Please be more understanding of our extra special circumstances and ignorance.”
“It’s legal to do that in the USofA. Where is it not legal? Germany? Interesting! Gosh their freezepeach laws are a bit restrictive, eh? Controlling how we move our bodies? Sounds like something a nazi would want.”
And on. And if you engage with it, they’ll just turn on some kind of AI bot thingy to continue the “conversation,” taking up even more space online.
Lmao spot on
Im not certain that they still need to gaslight.
So he literally turns around and does it a 2nd time.
How can anyone deny it now? There’s no way this is coincidence, like he’s just really awkward with gestures and was bad at throwing his hand in the air to the crowd. This can’t be explained away.
Wtf bullshit argument or defense is he and his supporters going to spew out?
They all say he’s such a genius, but he’s unaware of how close this gesture is to a nazi salute? There’s no way this can be defended. It’s just too obvious.
He’ll claim that the gesture went along with his words of his heart going out to people.
Press X to doubt.
How can anyone deny it now?
Easy. Bad faith.
I hate this fucking timeline so goddamn much
How did he make the Nazi salute look somehow even MORE uncool than the -9999999999999999999999 it was already at.
Well, the nazis didn’t have their cum-face on while doing it.
Because he made it with the expression of a 16 year old in furious heat.
Dork MAGA continues to live up to the name, and it would be funny if people weren’t losing their lives over it.
To be fair, the SS had drip. Hugo Boss leather trenchcoats… They looked good while being the absolute worst human beings in modern history.
They looked good, they drove great cars, they were just garbage
The nazi salute is pretty cool, not the meaning though.
So heil Hitler it is, now?
Granted, I never thought he’d get this far, but I’ve been saying for nearly a decade now that Musk is a lucky scammer who will do anything if it benefits himself.
I wonder how many people are left of the original musk groupies that thought musk was so cool and was going to save the world.
Do you still believe? Are you still that stupid?
On the bright side, if we’re remarking on history’s propensity for repetition, consider how much the odds have just gone up that Elon’s personal timeline now ends doused in gasoline and set alight in a ditch, like a pasty, doughy little pile of garbage.
I wonder how many people are left of the original musk groupies that thought musk was so cool and was going to save the world.
Do you still believe? Are you still that stupid?
Nope.
Wonder what all the people who voted for this are thinking. Wonder if it’s any different from what the people who enabled this are thinking.
“Oh cool, we don’t have to hide it anymore”
“I guess we’re Nazis, too.”
