Ok, so imagine that you're a billionaire and a really smart dude (as claimed by so many people on the internet). And you get into government and appear on TV and want to look good. You might hire a publicist, a PR team, some speechwriters, hell how about a body language consultant. When you go on TV you're going to project exactly the image you intend to. Anything less would be careless and stupid, right?
So yeah. This was a Nazi salute. And if you really want to argue that it wasn't, that Musk doesn't even know what a Nazi is, you gotta also accept that he's grossly incompetent and should not be in government at all. Throw him out, we didn't vote for him.
maybe they should stop saying hitler things and doing hitler things
"It was just a coincidence that he aggressively put his hand over his heart and then did the Roman solute multiple times. Just a string of accidents where he mistakenly and enthusiastically did something that looks exactly like a Nazi salute."
Cope harder
Is that not a nazi salute?
U C, he not did hold his hand out there long enuff. Or, or, or, he not did no bcuz he do not ever get 2 C American history x. Not ever1 has seen that movie. May be win he watch it he will pologize but he mite not and that’s ok 2 if he rlly not no.
I can’t imagine defending the shit honestly. There’s a reason fox cut to the crowd in their broadcast of the event. It obviously made someone uncomfortable.
Damn I haven't seen this image in yeeeeaaarrrss.. thought it was passe by now. Good job!
Really? You sure about that? Want to maybe take a look at the video first?
Literally Hitler!!! 😭😭😭
The truth hurts, that's why you're getting downvoted haha
