Elon musk salute

[EasterIssland]

Has he really done a nazi salute in the trump inauguration celebration? 🤦🏻‍♀️

They did what?

What sort of church is that?

Ok, thanks.

Not sure I'd want my kid going to a school linked with a church where that goes on...

"Haha, yes. It does look like a Nazi salute. Just a coincidence I assure you. More tea?"

Facepalm

I cannot believe in the same week that we mark 80 years since the liberation of Auschwitz the right hand man to the most powerful position in the world is doing a Nazi salute, not once but twice. Everything about Musk is repugnant.

Yep.

More about Musk and AfD from December when he wrote an opinion piece for the German paper Die Welt where he endorsed the right wing party

Must have been an accident. He's autistic, you know.

That out of control arm just flew out and accidentally typed that.

What’s even more upsetting is how many people are fine with it or scrabbling to excuse it.

Those defending him, if it genuinely was an accident - he was doing another gesture which has been misconstrued etc then wouldn’t most people be absolutely mortified and quickly issue an apology for causing offence? Unless I’ve missed something that doesn’t seem to be the case?

If you haven't already, delete your X account and don't buy a Tesla.

Anyone who buys a Tesla from now will be judged, by me if not God.

Oh so it's the Democrat's fault?
Not the Republicans for choosing Trump as their candidate who then chose to be involved with Musk?

There really should be some kind of amnesty programme for those of us who bought them in the peri-Fascist era.

Refunds for full purchase price minus wear and tear and ongoing mental health support.

I've been judging Tesla owners for a while.
Tesla's are quite common. I live on a road with 65 houses and 3 have a white Tesla.

You can buy bumper stickers stating you bought the Tesla before you knew Musk was crazy

I seriously dislike the man, but wasn’t he just throwing his heart out type thing that they always do? It looked bad but he is very awkward.

Obviously prior to today a lot of people - a former boss included - merely liked the shiny and the illusion of saving the planet whilst being on the edge.

However with a slight shift of "the edge" .... well there is no excuse.

It would be ironic if Telsas became less popular due to the market forces of insurance. Especially if they attract the wrong sort of attention.

Do we all have to be nazis now?

I don't know if I have time to devote myself full time to the old nazi -ism

(This is from a tv show before anyone comes at me)

Thing is, we know how registration numbers work in the UK.

And trying to disguise year of purchase with personalised plates may not help.

The whole speech was awkward. It does look bad. I always find him to be a bit odd body language wise (not making excuse just saying).

I think some posters are being a little disingenuous when claiming ‘my heart goes out to you’ was all he said.

The electorate are given 2 parties to choose from. If party X is less appealing than party Y, party X does need to address its failings and the concerns of the electorate, not dismiss them and hope they win. Can't be any clearer than that.

I agree with this man. I hope he did not intend to use a nazi salute. I think I have seen fist to heart, then stretch right hand in Romans films before, with the hail Caeser or we salute you Caesar, when they leave the room? I have seen Musk putting his right hand over his heart, then extending his right arm. Am I right that the Nazi salute itself involves lifting your already streched arm? Or am I wrong?

I do hope that Musk, though we all know is right, is not nazi! Just praying here.

Well ours genuinely qualifies, so I've thought about the bumper sticker. It is thoroughly embarrassing. The unfortunate thing is that it's a genuinely lovely car to drive.
