    Yeah also calling anything where you raise your hand a “Nazi-like salute” is dumb af. Musk does enough real shit without having clutch at straws like this.

      Oh of course that was just raising the hand. Sure bud. The timing and context also was perfectly suited to do “raise your hand” like you’ve waited your whole life for it, isn’t it?

      Or that he’s been running a far-right social media platform on the internet. Or that he was supporting a president who ran on pale supremacy rhetoric. Or he was some rich guy that benefitted from apartheid south africa.

      Nah, those are just coincidences. Just raising a hand, nothing more.

      The title points out the problem. It DOESN’T MATTER what he intended; we already know his views. What matters is the message it sent to far-right supporters across the globe. He never made an attempt to address that.
