I can find pics of Kamala, Walz, Biden, Obama, or literally anyone doing the same gesture. People just overreact to their preconceived notions. Not to mention it also minimizes actual Nazis and how bad they were.

Now, Steve Bannon - that was a nazi salute.

See I don’t like that comparison bc you’re taking someone’s wave/holding a hand out to the crowd in one still frame. That’s super disingenuous. So here’s a video of his gesture, compares side by side to an actual rally

And tbh, I saw the clip of Steve Bannon, if Elon did something like that I wouldn’t call it a salute, or maybe even sit in an iffy gray area about it.

Similar in timing only. Elons angle is way off. AOC did it straight forward.

Similar in timing, gesture, hand angle? Are you telling me because it only 90% resembles a salute and not 100% because he didn’t have ‘proper form’ that it wasn’t? Please politely miss me with your bullshit

Are you brain dead? Sure you can make a photo convenient to your argument but HE SALUTED THE FLAG AND THE PEOPLE BACK TO BACK AND THEN CALLED IT A ROMAN SALUTE

Timing is the only thing. His hand gesture and angle are wrong. The AOC video aligns much better with a seig heil.

I’d call it like I see it if it was, I found the video people are using it’s not even remotely similar to what Elon did

Timing is not the only thing, too. I need you to use your eyes and see the comparison I sent really closely

Nobody’s mentioned it yet, but I’ll bring it up cuz it’s relevant. Lots of people came to Elon’s defense saying it was a “Roman Salute”, and thus not bad at all, which if you actually look into the history of that term you’d find out that Roman’s never saluted that way, and the only reason it became known as that was because a fascist under Mussolini made it a thing because he saw it in a movie, I wish I was kidding honestly

The fact that anybody came to Elon’s defense with this though is the real issue though, because it shows that nobody on the right really cared that he did it, or that it might be offensive and awful, they just wanted some confirmation bias as to him being actually good and not a pos. They just simply don’t care ig

it’s not the same because the VIDEO of elon is always showed whereas yall use STILL images of others. he put his hand on his heart and did it literally so aggressively

If these guys really think that it wasn’t a Nazi salute, I encourage them to follow Elons example and give their hearts to their family members and their boss to show their appreciation

tbh the people saying it was a roman salute is a straight of admission of guilt because they recognize that it wasn’t elon giving his heart out to people. like they know it was not a typical gesture to make

Exactly. But this is why groups like the Proud Boy’s wear masks. It’s cuz they know if they do any of this publicly it’s going to backfire on them, so they hide anything they can besides their affiliation so they never have to face anything, just so they can shit on others and call it a day

So I’m going to pull out the fact that I’m a German citizen for this, that motherfucker did a nazi salute, actively supports and funds the new nazi party in Germany, and espouses nazi rhetoric often. If he were to do that “gesture” in Germany he’d be arrested. Fuck Elon, Fuck Nazis

If you watch the video of AOC, she’s reaching over to give a hug.
