    If you need some context, Musk is actively trying to influence German elections by advertising for the far right party afd. While doing something similar in the UK with the right wing Reform party, and calling for a neo nazi to be released from prison.

    So there’s that. It doesn’t even matter if this was a nazi salute or not, because it was clear that he is a fascist before this incident.

      Here’s a poster for the party Elon Musk is supporting in Germany. Do we still give him the benefit of the doubt? I don’t see much doubt to be had.

        I completely forgot about this one. These clowns also think they are very clever in using thinly veiled Nazi symbolism in their publications. Like using the number 18 in their recent “Abschiebeticket” campaign (1 = A, 8 = H in the alphabet and is common code among themselves for Adolf Hitler) And when asked about that they smugly pretend being absolutely innocent.
