      No, but you might be

      Here is what actually happened.

      He stood on stage and said something like, “I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart”, then he grabs his heart, and waves to the audience

      Does it look exactly like a Nazi Salute? Absolutely, and that’s what makes it so funny. The dude is such a massive fucking idiot he accidentally gave the Nazi Salute on a World Stage. And not just once, he waved to three different parts of the audience, doing it three times

      Did he actually stand on stage and Heil Hitler? No

      No amount of your shitty gifs are going to change that this is what actually happened

        He did it once, turned around and did it again - incredibly intentional.

        It is a Nazi salute, stop trying to pretend otherwise. You’re trying to rationalize it because you can’t accept that Musk is a Nazi.

        Instead of defending this trash human being who’s only wealthy through inheritance and luck in making some good bets with his capital (gained from his family exploitation in South Africa during apartheid). He’s not a fucking genius, he’s not a visionary, he’s an asshole who has way too much money and a disgusting philosophy on life.

        You’re not his friend. He is not your friend. He is the enemy.

          There were people both, in front, and behind him. He was thanking the people in the audience for supporting Trump; so yeah, he waved to all of the people in the audience, including those behind him

          It’s not an “All-or-nothing” deal in life. I can both, dislike Elon, but also not be OK with spreading misinformation. The fact that you see it as a, “you always go with the anti-Elon narrative, even if it’s false or else…” kind of lets me know everything I need to know about you. If the story was, “Elon ate a baby on stage”, even though you know that’s not true, you’d still push the lie because to you, if you speak up and say, “that’s not true”, you’re a bad person

          Your morals are fucked

          Not me. I don’t need to lie. Elon can get fucked but I’ll let his trash behavior speaks honestly for itself

          Did he give a stupid fucking wave that looks like the Nazi Salute? Absolutely. Was he actually standing on stage Heil Hitler? No.

            Lol the irony.

            I can both, dislike Elon, but also not be OK with spreading misinformation.

            You and me both. That’s why I wrote what I did. Because you’re spreading misinformation.

              Oh, my bad, so then Elon wasn’t thanking the audience, I’m lying about that?

              Oh, he was? He literally said that huh? hm…

              Well, he didn’t thank them from his heart. Obviously that’s bullshit right?

              Oh, he did? Like he literally said he was doing exactly that? Straight up, “from my heart”?

              Well he didn’t grab his heart or anything, he just did the salute

              Oh, he did grab his heart? Like, he literally flat palms his chest and literally grips his shirt over his heart?

              Hm… well, this happened at place where people do Nazi Salutes right? Like in secret or at a white power rally or something?

              No? It happened in a public place where you almost certainly wouldn’t publicly do this?

              oh…
