Reddit

Remember when he was investigated by the SEC for Tweeting out that he was buying back Tesla stock for $420 apiece?

And when he got booted out of the company he started because he insisted on naming it "X" despite everyone telling him that made it sound like a porn site?

And when he accused those divers of being pedophiles because they rescued stranded children before he could find a way to make it about himself?

And when just about every time he announces he's saved government money, the number "saved" is immediately backtracked?

And how the whole reason he owns Twitter is he made on offer that he immediately tried to back out of and would have if not for the threat of a multimillion dollar suit for breach of contract?

Elon Musk does not think shit through. However smart or stupid he is, however deeply he does or doesn't believe the Trump Administration's fascist bullshit, he does not dedicate much time to thinking about it before he does stuff. I do not doubt for a moment that he performed and meant to perform a Nazi salute. As to what he was thinking, I cannot say. Maybe he cannot. He definitely has sympathies for anti-semitic and racist movements, but I don't think he thought he was going to be hailed as the savior of the Aryan race for doing it. Maybe he thought it would be funny. Maybe he thought it would be "ironic." Maybe he thought it would get "teh libz" in a tizzy. He probably didn't think he would have to avoid ever going to Germany again under threat of being arrested. Whatever he was thinking, he probably wasn't thinking it more than five seconds before he did it. And he's clearly not thinking it now. Because despite being the richest man on the planet, Elon Musk is a bumblefuck who doesn't think things through and has thus far been able to buy or otherwise ride his way out of any consequences of the things he has done without thinking about them.

Well this was the tiny little push I needed to make an account lol

What's wrong? Just own it already.

He doesn't want it removed. He wants to target those using it against him. Nazis using it to praise him are not in the crossfires now.

Time to introduce him to the Streisand effect

Reddit caved to facism. Another coward CEO takes it up the ass from a south African immigrant.

Fuck his Nazi ass. Let him stew

He wanted to do it to please the Magats but not take any responsibility or have it used against him later.

A Handy visual reference guide to spread around.

Actions do have consequences. Trying to erase posts and people calling you out for what you did and explaining why those actions are bad does not make those things that you did go away and is honestly a bad look. If you don't want people on social media calling you a Nazi, there's a really easy solution for that - don't do Nazi salutes on live TV, don't make Nazi puns instead of apologizing, and don't keep regurgitating anti-semetic conspiracy theories like the "great replacement" conspiracy theory.

Awweee poor baby... I thought he loved free speech.
