    Reminder that Zionists like to collaborate with antisemites, in the hopes of accelerating emigration to Israel.

    I don’t know who adl is but this is correct. he actually was going off on the us putting astronaughts on mars because he wants trump to funnel money to his company. He was making all these broad gestures and we are going to put a flag here and here. honestly I practically would have prefered a straight out nazis salute.

      He thumped his chest and did it emphatically. Then he turned around and did it again. The only way it could’ve been more nazilike is if he stomped while he did it

        yeah. sorry if it sounded like he did not its just his whole thing went into this america fuck yeah type of thing that followed in lets get people on mars which worries me more as I hear a big sucking of tax money sound from him. what he was going on about would cost someone (cough us) trillions and not just one. many many. but yeah why that is his go to excitement gesture is pretty disturbing.

    If Elon walked out wearing a red arm band with a swastika, the ADL would be talking about its history as a Hindu symbol.

      “Mr. Musk has provided us with another delicate moment, demonstrating the ancient Roman salute combined with a Hindu symbol. It appears that the talk about the AI-operated gas chambers was a bit of an awkward slip, and it’s best we do not further aggravate the division of our nation.”

    Did it ever occur to you that maybe this was simply a mistake? Never assume Malice for something that can be explained by utter stupidity. If it was intentional he probably would be bragging about it non stop.

      Forgot? Why should he care? There appear to be no repercussions to his behaviour.
      Unfortunately, it seems these people can do whatever the hell they want.

    Lot of businesses backed up Hitler and his Nazis too.

    A lot of them even came out of that whole situation in pretty good shape.

      IBM, Coke, and Ford had no issues doing business in nazy germany, even if they were under a different name. Business only cares about steady and growing revenues/margins no matter how it comes about it.

      The most important lesson I learned in Hebrew school was that the Holocaust would have not been possible without IBM.

    Lol is the Elon response real of photoshopped? Man what an asshole if true. I mean, also asshole if not.

    I’ve always suspected this man was a wolf in sheep’s clothing, but I was told I was overthinking it. I wonder if the ppl who told me that I was wrong remember doing so.

    If it was a genuine mistake he would have sincerely apologised. Only a nazi doesn’t apologise for making a nazi salute.

        I remember reading he also just laughed it off and said people are just paranoid and see what they want to see.

        A pretty good tell-tale sign of a fascist is that they will never apologize or admit doing wrong. You have to appear strong at all times.

    Regardless of if he intended to do a Nazi salute or not exposing the public to that level of cringe should be a capital offense.
