Summary

Elon Musk rejected accusations of Nazi sympathies in a Fox News interview, calling it ā€œoutrageousā€ and blaming media propaganda.

Critics point to his straight-arm salute at Trump’s rally, endorsement of a German far-right party, and reinstating white supremacist accounts on X.

His cuts to federal agencies under DOGE have sparked protests and vandalism, including nicknaming Teslas ā€œswasticars.ā€

Musk claims he’s targeted for character assassination and receives daily death threats. He and Lara Trump compared the attacks to those against Donald Trump, accusing mainstream media of spreading lies.

      We didn’t know about Auschwitz until we liberated it and he was critical of them in the 30s.

      It’s a good example of how right pull happens. Until you’re exterminating people, fascists won’t be happy and until then centrists won’t care.
