Summary
Calvin Robinson, a Michigan priest with the Anglican Catholic Church, has been defrocked after making what appeared to be a Nazi salute at the National Pro-Life Summit on January 25.
The church revoked his license, condemning the gesture as harmful and contrary to Christian values.
Robinson defended it as a joke mocking liberals’ criticism of Elon Musk, whose own gestures and comments on Nazism have sparked controversy.
The Guardian called it an “apparent Nazi salute” when Musk did it too: https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2025/jan/21/the-gesture-speaks-for-itself-germans-divided-over-musks-apparent-nazi-salute
Should have used the word “obvious” instead.
