What were y'all expecting?

Nah, that was an intentional Heil and Musk can fuck alllll the way off.

It's not like we didn't know, but now WE KNOW. That also means we know what to do about it.

that's not "odd looking" that's the sort of shit that'll get you arrested in Germany

Honestly I was expecting some dumb shit at the inauguration but a Nazi salute was not on my BINGO card tbh.

Is this for real? Just when i thought this can’t possibly get any worse.
Are we living in a parody film?

No, because at least they can be funny.

no, but you are about to move into a real life dystopia.

People forget Elon's grandparents on mom's side were ACTUAL nazi....they fled from canada to africa after ww2 (as back then africa had better reception of nazi)

Yup this one here, that's the moment he jizzed his pants... Been edging awhile in that one methinks ffs

I saw a side-by-side photo of Elon and Adolf, and it's the same, just as we all know. Elon knows what he's doing.
yourbasiccatlady
Odd‐looking? Wtf does it even mean? Why not call stuff by their name?
alaest0r
In context, "my heart goes out to you"... Which, of course, is absurd. Sure, this could be some high-yield mental disconnect, I can totally appreciate a derp like that under normal circumstances; but there's no fucking way you don't get called a Nazi every day and fucking miss how that would be construed... PBS video titled bluntly "appears to give a fascist salute"
invaderjak
This "odd looking salute" has a common name, use it.

Don't downplay it by calling it odd looking. It was clear as day he was doing a nazi salute.

"odd looking salute?" That Fuck knew what he was doing.
AgamemnonsMemes
His grandparents were card-carrying nazis, his father is also nazi-adjacent, he knows a nazi salute.

Let's do a google and see what various headlines say:
"weird thing", "weird salute", "odd-looking salute", "bizarre 'salute'", "gesture", "evocative gesture", "strange gesture", "controversial salute", "salute", "controversial gesture", "crowd salute"...
At least SOME are calling it a "fascist salute" or "nazi salute"; tho some of those in turn only use it in the context of saying he's "accused of", or posing it as a question if he really did it and basically saying it's up to interpretation.
Asadsadsadclown
The standard that I go by is "would this get you arrested in Gemrnay" because they dont fuck around. And this is currently registering off the charts.
thatlamer
More pathetic, passive language from legacy media.
WarpHype
And the media knew what they were doing by not calling it was it is. It's full fascism in America. Democracy has been lost in America.
MangOpana
Yup, and the only difference between his and a Sieg Heil salute, which is outlawed in Germany by the way, was the hand on his chest as opposed to starting from the shoulder.

He's just too stiff to do it properly.

The kid with the plane-tracker had the right idea. Gather data on the trump-billionaires, share it. Share their location. Point at them and turn it into a staring contest. Do it before you learn about what goes on in the camps.

if he could stop sexualizing kids in shows that would be great.

His daddy probably taught him that from an early age.
MrsUnderstoop
His daddy thinks he’s an asshole
holgerdk
Elon learned it from his dad.
Vantahku
His mother is more rabid, actually.
IUpvoteEveryNicholasCageGIF
And his Daddy is already a Poverty loving Asshole, the asshole that married Elon's sister.
hotaru251
Elon's maternal grandparents were actual nazi who fled Canada and went to africa following ww2. His dad willingly married into a nazi family. (knowing it fully)
MrsUnderstoop
Im not saying his dad is a good guy- apples don’t fall far from trees

They're fucking Nazis!

This right here is the issue. Not his salute. The fact you insist on pretending you live in a world where you're still allowed to be surprised by this shit. Wake the fk up

He did it multiple times today. He opened his speech with one too.

Holy shit. As a German this makes me feel more than uncomfortable.
BadBuBBaStuff
Crowd continued to cheer when he did it again too 😬
WhatTheFrog
Same moment as posted but from a different angle, isn't it? Doesn't make him any less of a fucking fascist, of course.
activeracer28
Looks like it to me.
RenegadeSci
No, it was at the beginning and end of the speech. One in the beginning. Then he does it at the end in front of the crowd and turns to the back and again.
terrifyingspacemonkeys
Please tell me it's AI. This can't actually be happening.
