    It’s so unfair that everyone keeps referring to his neo Nazi salute that he gave at a neo Nazi convention.

    Just so unfair to bringing up his neo Nazi salute constantly. Just patiently unfair to mention his neo Nazi salute he gave twice at the neo Nazi convention.

    Just so unfair. Nazi.

        Tbf, I don’t think you can do anything worse to his reputation than him literally throwing up two Nazi salutes on live tv. At this point, people’s opinions lie where they lie, although with a shocking amount being very, very disturbingly positive of him…

            I don’t disagree with you at all. I think a significant amount of Reddit, Twitter, etc. traffic are wildly inflated by bots that want to push narratives. Why wouldn’t they be? It’s so easy to do now and costs a minimal amount for the return.

            That said, I also know people in real life that dismiss his gesture to him being “autistic” and just “throwing his heart out” even though we have unequivocal video proof of him doing that exact “my heart goes out” gesture in the past that is uh…not a Nazi salute.

            I do wonder where the crossover is though. Like, do the people I know who dismiss Elon’s clear Nazi behaviour do so due to seeing narratives on the internet that back up the idea of “oh no, he’s not a Nazi, it’s fine, he’s just autistic!!1”, or would they have arrived at the same stupid ass conclusion on their own?

      Oh, why would you mention his neo Nazi salute so publicly? Can’t you see he - the neo Nazi - is suffering from his neo Nazi action consequences?

      Poor neo Nazi…
