Summary
Vivian Jenna Wilson, Elon Muskās daughter, accused her father of giving a ādefinitely Nazi saluteā at two rallies in January, calling his actions āfucking cringe.ā
In an interview with Teen Vogue, she criticized Muskās involvement in the Trump administration and advocated for trans rights, emphasizing the importance of gender-affirming care for minors.
Wilson, who transitioned as a teen, described Musk as cold and absent, and revealed she no longer associates with him or his family.
She also expressed fear over anti-trans legislation under Trumpās administration.
Yeah, I understand that. And Iāve spent some time online talking with neo Nazis, and I know how they act. I just donāt think he actually is. Conservative, yeah, but not a Nazi.
Does it really matter if heās deliberately advancing a fascist agenda?
Yeah, because if heās indeed a nazi, heās pretty incompetent at converting people into nazism. Some politicians such as Elizabeth Warren and Kamala Harris have done a hand gesture that resembles the nazi salute in their political rallies, but nobody at the time screamed they were dog whistling nazi symbology. Raising oneās hand to salute the audience is just a natural gesture, not some intricate gesture thatās exclusive to a bonafide nazi apologist.
Lol, no they havenāt, and if you have a hard time seeing a chest pounding and sharp arm raising as a Nazi salute but buy a frozen frame of a wave as potentially equivalent youāre deep into the conservative media ecosystem looking for a reason to excuse him.
Itās not a hand wave, itās a frame-perfect Nazi salute with the beginning middle and end. Thereās nothing he could have done to make it more accurate a Nazi salute other than speaking German at the time.

What I see is Elon haters clinging to this salute as if itās the one silver bullet that will somehow make him lose Trumpās or the Republicansā support. But their insistence on this is like preaching to the choir, as right-wingers simply donāt careāsome even like Elon more for being gutsy.
If thatās all theyāve got on Elon, then heās sure to keep his job at DOGE. And Trump is laughing all the way to the bank, as the anti-Elon sentiment shields him from criticism, as social mediaās attention is mostly spent on Elon instead of Trump.
Nazi symbolism is āgutsyā. God Elon-stans are such fucking losers.
Sorry, English is not my first language. What I meant is that some may see him as wacky and irreverent.
Itās very easy to find an image of a politician, or anyone really in the public eye, doing what appears to be a Nazi salute. Pretty much any gesture that starts with the hand below shoulder level to above head level may well briefly transition between those two that could result in an image that appears to be a Nazi salute from one angle or another. Itās much harder to find video that closely mimics actual videos of Adolf Hitler doing a Nazii salute, even harder to see it happen twice just moments apart.
