I’m austrian, and i have seen better nazi salutes by drunk edgy teenagers in the 90s. Are you americans in here sure he actually knows how a nazi salute should look like or do all of the Y’all Quaeda first grip their steroid induced mantits before they half-dab?

His Nazi skills simply match the level of his gaming skills.
I don’t even know why he did it.
Did he like expect to just walk into PoE and just click buttons to win?
Frustrating but predictable.
Personally I’m pretty happy with how fucking awkward Elon was while doing it. The whole gif is really cringe.
It’s a long way to 2026 folks. We are going to have a lot of Federal Level damage in the next couple of years. Even if Democrats get elected in 2026+ we will have absurd debts to pay and likely be forced to raise taxes and be the bad guy again.
Ah yes, wait for the do nothing democrats to save you, that sounds like a totally viable plan 🙄
You do know it isn’t mandatory to let it happen, right?
Seriously, we do not have to abandon our right to revolution
You do know it isn’t mandatory to let it happen, right?
Did anyone tell the DNC? Because they’re sure as hell ACTING like it is…
Seriously, we do not have to abandon our right to revolution
A couple weeks late now. For a popular revolt facing an overwhelming power imbalance, you need to rely on anyone in government being squeamish about massacring civilians.
The new government would rather kill a thousand innocent people than concede the God-Emperor ever being wrong about anything, and the new Senate minority would rather let them than violate procedural norms.
Yeaaa about that.
If we cant get people to the polls.
How do we get people to the streets?
While I agree it looks like apathy has set in, maybe Luigi can be seen as a catalyst for change through action.
Godspeed my USian neighbours.
Won’t happen.
Americans are lazy bastards, and nothing makes them lazier than the cold. For as much as I admire Luigi, he will have thrown his life away for nothing. If he’d been a little bit sooner, or a lot bit later, maybe he could be a martyr. As is, he’ll be a footnote.
What you would need is several copycat killers, with some getting away, during the summer when Americans are comfortable protesting. Even then, American protests have recently been toothless, and haven’t made any effect on politics ever since Trump took office in 2016.
Inspiration doesn’t expire, it breeds like hope. History happens slowly and through a culmination of events. A catalyst is the enabler of the future.
Wait until the price of eggs and gas goes up
Nothing will happen, people are willing to tolerate much worse things
That is indeed the problem.
Truth be told, it ain’t happening, but I get so sick of people shrugging it off and pretending that we don’t have a choice. We do
It’s just that the majority would rather watch the system get tighter and tighter because they think the noose isn’t going to be around their necks.
americans abandoned that a long time ago.
And who will lead this revolution? Biden? Kamala?
Go on. Who is the leader? Do we just gotta all rally behind Jill Stein now?
Why do you think anyone that’s already part of the system would be involved at all?
It has to be us, the people, not some charismatic, or good liar that’s stuck in the concept of making the system work. It has to come from people that are tired of the fact that the system does work, just not for us
Cool.
Give me a name. And stop stalling.
Are you dense?
No. I’m just aware of the need for a charismatic leader.
Civil rights had Martin Luther King. Among other leaders. The idea of doing this without leadership is the fundamental flaw.
I think we should be beyond any one human running everything honestly.
Horse shit. Charismatic leaders are what got us into our current mess
The way American politics are going, it’ll probably be lead by Jack Black.
If there is a leader, any leader at all, who’d try to lead the progressive cause? And one that people would really behind?
That’d be a good first start. Even celebrities like Jack Black.
Shit. I’d march with him.
Jack Black actively chose to call out his fellow band mates who made a mild joke about the assassination attempt that hit Trump’s ear.
He’s not going to be leading any revolutions.
Genocide-enabling Democrats still can’t figure out why they lost.
Now they are gloating that the peasants are hurting themselves…
Zero self reflection, they are still defending DNC komissars
JFC pathetic.
Even if you’re right, why bring this up in every single thread? What’s it contributing?
So we don’t get a repeat of 2016 & 2024
Do you think it actually helps? All it does is make you sound like a troll and your message just makes you come off as a spiteful curmudgeon
I’d say it makes them sound like an edgy teen. But all the things you said are valid as well. Plus, teens smell as bad, if not worse, as trolls.
Does your insults about teens help you feel better knowing you got Trump reelected?
They helped Trump get re-elected but it sounds like you’re fine with it.
Because the ethnic-cleansing party got more votes?
It’s illegal migrants cleansing party. Never saw anything about ethnic in their claims
It’s not going to be Australian backpackers overstaying their visas who get deported en mass.
Trump is going to open a hotel in Gaza real soon.
Doesn’t Trump get to take credit for both the ceasefire & saving TikTok, a pro-Palestine platform? I used to think only Republicans were dumb, but then they lost to the candidate they claimed was the most idiotic.
While Israel is crashing the fuck out and fragging kids during the ceasefire, Muskolini hit a sieg that the fuhrer would have trouble matching in energy. That shit had momentum to it. He wound that mother up like Popeye. Don’t let me catch anyone calling this a dogwhistle.
If you can afford to not purchase american goods & services and you’re not doing so, you’re complicit. Let it be known.
Please other countries send us help. No this isn’t a drill
Wish he would do that in Germany just once

Stop posting this fucker
Also: “But why Russians just don’t overthrow putin if they don’t agree with the war?”
Welp! I didn’t have “President gives Nazi salute” on my bingo card…
You didn’t?
Yeah, rookie mistakes given we already know who is elected.
Look man. I don’t know what to tell you. I know trump was already president from 2017-2021, but that still doesn’t feel real. The idea of trump is president feels…not real. It feels like a plot from a tv show. And not even a GOOD tv show. Some show that nobody watches because “ugh, this is crap…change the channel!”
Except we CAN’T change the channel. And by popular vote Americans have decided they don’t WANT to change the channel. And you’re just handcuffed to your chair, forced to watch this bad reality all around you.
It’s like being on a roller coaster that you know has a 100% chance of flying off the rails. But you’re still on it. Knowing disaster awaits, as we’ve spent the last 3 months climbing the anticipation hill, except now it’s time to go flying off the rails. Here it comes!
WHEEEEEEEEEEEeeeeeeeee…
Normalcy bias is a bitch. Congratulations on at least being aware of how not normal the situation is intellectually, it seems most people aren’t getting that far.
I want to get off Mr. Bones’s Wild Ride.
I don’t know how to tell you this, but you can’t get off
Like wearing a chastity belt…
At least there is some kind of positive intent or consent (usually), not so on Mr.Bones’ Wild Ride
We’re all on Mr Bones’ Wild Ride now. At least we’re in good company 🫂
I guess I’m going to be the one that plays devil’s advocate as there is no context here other than a still image, but is it possible he wasn’t intentionally doing a Nazi salute and has just been caught in an incredibly awkward pose?
What’s more likely?
A large proportion of Americans are very ready to be extremely upset and will look in to things that aren’t there, like a socially inept Musk appearing to make a Nazi salute.
Or
Musk intentionally made a Nazi salute.
I know it’s emotional times, but I think a huge amount of people aren’t thinking rationally.
Fuck Trump, Elon, the other oligarchs, and all of the short-sighted moronic voters and non-voters who put them back in power.
This may not be what America wants, but this is what Americans deserve for being so fucking stupid.
Maybe I’m an idiot but I thought he was dabbing.
