This was a nazi salute, or at least a reference to it, you can obviously see it. However, and this is where it becomes slightly problematic...

Is it enough of a nazi salute to not work in their favor? We can easily compare Elons salute with a nazi one, just show it side by side with an actual one. But this one is obviously (you can see it on his face) meant to reference it, but it is not as explicit. The problem is that when it is called out, it is just another case of "the woke left screaming that everyone that disagrees with them is a nazi".

I have no idea how we should handle shit like this.

The difference is Bannon knows what he's doing, while Ellonie is a moron.

Bannon did it just half-heartedly enough to throw doubt into it when asked. Elon tried his best.

I'm usually not a fan of zero tolerance policies, but I make an exception for Nazi shit.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 day ago (1 children)

You are probably right, I am just not sure how to react to stuff like this anymore

Close, but trump does have his hand vertical enough to be a legitimate wave.

Bannon looks like old dried white dog shit, I hope mortality catches up with him soon

I hear if we can get a third before the end of the month, those egg prices will start tumbling!

Why exactly are we repeating history

This is what happens when you systematically destroy the education system.

“But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security”

Do we have a video of this?

Fuentes is getting uncomfortable? "Just kidding" he says. I fucking hate people like this. Same people that googled if they could change their election vote.

There's only one kind of good nazi. We should strive to make them all like that.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 1 day ago

Flabby white guys barely able to raise their arms.

Bannon’s not used to lifting his hand past his juandice tinged liver lips.

Elon so fucking out of shape he actually gasped for air and grunted.

[–] [email protected] 123 points 1 day ago (1 children)

The only good Nazi is a dead Nazi.

[–] [email protected] 39 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (2 children)

My dearly departed gramps would agree. Man was on the ground walking across France and Germany on a mission to free concentration camps. He wouldn’t describe it in any further detail than that, ever, but he would shut down any murmur of racism. Silence a room shut down.

We lack that now which is why hx is coming back around again.

[–] [email protected] 35 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

I think it’s interesting* that as soon as everyone with a firsthand account of Nazis dies, Nazism comes roaring back. It’s as though there’s no generational memory in society.

*not to imply it’s good, it’s horrifying.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

It’s so sad that we are going to get this costly lesson again. It would be better if the guillotines came out, rather than panzer tanks.

Ya know......as much as I hated Bush in his day, he was never a nazi. I called him a LOT of things over the years.....but I never remember calling him a nazi.

How the fuck are we living in a timeline where a president who used a terrorist attack as justification for invading countries that never had anything to do with it, is now looked at as "he wasn't so bad...."

[–] [email protected] 40 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (2 children)

He was a fascist. He was always a fascist and his "War on Terror" laid the ground work for our current situation.

His presidency is when I first saw the Signs of Fascism.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 1 day ago

Yup, it’s when patriots and flags on cars took a nasty turn. Let’s not forget about Dock Cheney either. O matter what his daughter has tried to do to change that name, Bush and Dick belong in the Hauge.

Trump belongs in an orange jumpsuit and Musk belongs in South Africa, locked in a compound hiding from the world.

Bush lied about WMDs to kill millions of people and steal their oil. He is not Hitler but he is not far. It will take more than a sieg to surpass Bush.

[–] [email protected] 159 points 1 day ago (4 children)

Bush is a war criminal, lied to the American people, and contributed to the pathway that created trumpism.

He's not a Nazi. But he's not a good guy either.

[–] [email protected] 32 points 1 day ago

Yeah, the preceding years laundering his reputation and presidency has been maddening. His war crimes, foreign policy on essentially everything, domestic policy on education, carceral systems, tax reform, and the border should have him in solitary at The Hague for the rest of his life. The man is truly a monster, and walks among the nazis today. He's still a republican, so whether or not he's a nazi is perhaps an academic debate only.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 1 day ago

He paved the path for a Nazi

Let’s be real, the best part of Bush Junior was Sam Rockwell playing him in Vice.

What about Matt Stone and Trey Parker’s classic That’s My Bush?

All I remember from that show is the woman in the maid outfit saying she was in a K-hole

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

That woman is Marcia Wallace.

Bannon is white fucking trash anyway. Not just saying that because he looks like human excrement but because he has the personality of a roasted maggot.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 day ago

His physical appearance suggests alcohol.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 day ago

He looks like he smells like one too.

Feel like we need present day German advice rn.

German here.
This is pretty much exactly how Hitler got to power.
You're welcome
