MODERATORS
It's even more outrageous that we have Nazis in government.
It's outrageous to claim he isn't a nazi
He's had ample time to apologize, still hasn't.
Bro literally intentionally does a Nazi salute on TV and then whines when people say he's a Nazi...
That's because he doesn't understand consequences
Unfortunately I don't think a lot of people in my country do...
Its gonna be a maze.
Wait Joshua was racist??!?
That came out of nowhere...
Did it?
History books will show he said this after the multiple seig heils on stage and telling the AfD to no longer be ashamed of Germany's past.
What’s really outrageous is that he’s a free man, instead of rotting in some cell for the rest of his life like the Nazi sympathizing psychopath waste of oxygen he is.
straight-arm salute
It's called a nazi salute. Don't spread doubt on what it was. He did it twice in close succession. The only other reason for holding your arm up like that is when you explain how high Blondie, Hitler's dog, could jump.
'Nazi' isn't a preferable pronounce, it's what you're called when you act like a nazi, talk like a nazi and salute like a fucking nazi.
Look guys, just because he bought Twitter and reinstated all the Nazi accounts, and thinks and says Nazi things, and and performed an obvious Nazi salute not once, but twice in a live broadcast to millions of homes, that doesn't mean he's a Nazi!
Next thing you will say that this guy is a Nazi;
(under 2 minutes, English subtitles available)
"I need to save Tesla stock so I'll just lie long enough for people to forget."
Pretty funny/terrible that there is so much news about all these turds (probably by design) that it becomes exceedingly difficult to search to fact-check older things and bring up previous articles one remembers. Even AI has problems parsing the searches. It is like 1984's information-deletion theme isn't even needed. You just create enough noise that the signal gets lost.
Re-found this info though to float it back up to the top: https://www.irishstar.com/news/us-news/elon-musks-political-shift-family-34222327
Discussing with MailOnline, Errol conveyed his satisfaction at observing Elon own up to his background, stating: "I think for the first time Elon was accepting who he is. Until recently, he's been a sort of character on a stage." He then added his thoughts on his sons' initial political trajectories saying, "When you come from South Africa, Lefties think you're a Nazi. To succeed, you need to be accepted by them so my sons, [Elon and younger brother Kimbal, a hugely successful restaurateur], started to become these flaming liberals – turning away from South Africa and their roots, which included me. Finally, Elon was embracing his heritage and his destiny," reported the Mirror.
Of course, "South Africa and their roots" == Apartheid, white nationalism, and all the usual stuff leading up to Fascism and Godwin's law.
Nothing will meaningfully improve until the rich fear for their lives
Which rich? Because I only hear about some of them.
Let's start with the ones you always hear about then see if the others fall in line.
Elon and Trump, but i guess that isn't really fair because they are the only thing discussed on lemmy anyway.
Bezos as well
HAHAHHAHAHAHA
Should a stuck that arm up your fat orange bfs ass then
i hope he follows his nazi leader
I'd be so happy if he pulled a Lowtax
Lowtax?
that would be mind blowing
EM: I prefer the title Captain of Industry
Looks like a duck, acts like a duck, quacks like a duck, even rapes like a duck. Why is everyone calling me a duck?
