Looked more like he was attending a rally in Nuremburg.

Post what you like Hypo but Musk did a Nazi salute. End of debate. More chance of Saints staying up this season than anyone believing otherwise. My grandfather fought those cunts in North Africa and Italy and knew what a Nazi looked like https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/politics-news/musk-nazi-salute-trump-rally-1236113874/

Try that in Germany and enjoy the prison time. Or Australia https://ministers.ag.gov.au/media-centre/nazi-salute-and-hate-symbols-now-outlawed-08-01-2024

I don’t think that’s company you want to be keeping Hypo. PS - putting a laughing emoji to do with anything to Nazis disrespects these people and the risks they took so you could have the freedom of speech in the first place https://apnews.com/article/dday-veterans-anniversary-war-normandy-796b6ca453660a32e7925c1191205b81

It was. Plenty of modern day Nazis are convinced too https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/elon-musk-salute-reaction-right-wing-extremists-1235241866/

As for the ADL, plenty of other Israeli groups including Zionist believe the ADL is sucking up to the world’s wealthiest fascist. Shame on the ADL, letting themselves and Jewish people down for a few quid https://www.timesofisrael.com/how-did-the-adl-conclude-that-elon-musk-didnt-give-a-nazi-salute-it-isnt-saying/

But then that’s all Trump people care about - money. And his economy will only deliver higher inflation and prices anyway.

Only he can explain why he did it and own it. The trace of a smirk across his face tells me he knew exactly what he was doing and the storm it would create. It upstaged Trump somewhat which was his real aim I suspect. But he is a very troubled individual so who knows.

Not sure the what the tipping point for being defined a nazi but is worrying how people leap to defend something and admire the lack of contrition. 
If Musk was a decent person he could just say of course it wasn’t and sorry if it came across as that and I loathe Nazis and what they stand for.

but no all about ‘owning the libs’ and doubling down

Allied to the fact billionaires in the crowd cheered it. Whereas here we have plenty of visual reminders of Nazi raids and bombs, including in Southampton city centre.

He wouldnt be a Nazi even if he had a copy of Mein Kamp, a Nazi training manual, had researched "top 10 greatest Nazi killings" on the internet, been reported 3 times to the authorities on suspicion of being a Nazi, had previously been stopped from an attack by his dad and was making bombs in his bedroom according to some on here.

Hopefully you're not talking about me. I haven't admired anyone, I don't really care much about Musk I'm just challenging the idea that he's a Nazi.

Have a day off mate. It was a nazi salute, because, you know, it was a nazi salute. What he may or may not be is a separate point and one I won't speculate about.

The fact there are laughing emojis on some of the posts speaks volumes. I remember going on a school trip to Germany not long after the Berlin Wall fell to this former camp https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sachsenhausen_concentration_camp

It (the museum) must have only just opened. The gold teeth extracted and the lampshades made of Jewish skin I will never forget.

If you want to get in the gutter and laugh at that, and be gaslit by a wealthy man, go for it. But everyone knows that was a Nazi salute, and what they stood for. He could have said it was misconstrued but very sorry anybody thought it was. Easy to correct. But he didn’t, and that tells us the truth. That school trip, there were typical teenage boys larking around with salutes outside the museum, but they fucking weren’t afterwards. Big, strapping lads ashen faced and silent.

I don't need lectures from anyone about the horrors of the Holocaust, the discrimination my Jewish friends still experience or how awful places in Poland are that I've visited a few times. I've been accuse of being a rampant zionist on here and am a staunch supporter of the Jewish people. None of that has any relevance whatsoever to this issue and I can find just as many authoritative sources - including Jewish people - who are laughing at what you're saying.

Who's called him a nazi? 

People have highlighted his nazi salute.

In your opinion. Plenty of Jewish sources who are appalled by it and not seeking/cowed by Musk’s money. That salute and what was done to those Jewish people in that camp are inextricably linked, because that’s where fascism takes you. Christopher Polhaus and his ilk enjoyed it and are encouraged by it. Musk could’ve simply put his hand on his heart like the national anthem does. But he chose not to and hasn’t repudiated it. That’s on him and those gaslighting for him.

The world’s wealthiest man and current collaborator to the world most powerful just inaugurated. That’s why some groups are kissing his arse despite him giving the wink to people who would like to see them destroyed again.

It makes sense alright but it’s vile.

So anyone who disputes the claim that Musk was doing a nazi salute are cowed by Musk's money? What a claim! You know those Jews though, they're happy to parrot any old belief for a bit of money.

The main trait of being a Nazi is being proudly and up front about supporting Jews.

Musk is now an extension of Trump. Psychophants who need and/or don't want to upset Trump and/or Musk will suck up to them or keep quiet.

Sorry I don't understand the comparison. 

Corbyn claimed at the same time to be supporting Jewish groups in the party he led whilst being investigated for anti-semitism and pictured laying a wreath at the burial site of Palestinians killed in the Munich attacks, which he should never have done. Even when he laid flowers at the Centotaph, apparently he didn’t bow enough. No different to what Musk was doing virtual signalling in your picture https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/jeremy-corbyn-bow-at-cenotaph-on-remembrance-sunday-sparks-row-on-twitter-a6725976.html

Now I can’t stand Corbyn or his nutcase of a brother, but there’s a double standard in him being pilloried for that and Musk being excused for doing a fascist salute behind the US Presidential Seal no less, because he also virtue signalled somewhere else.

It was ridiculous to have a go at Corbyn for not bowing enough if that's what someone was criticising him for. This account of Musk definitely doing a Nazi salute is disputed. There's no dispute that Corbyn placed a wreath.
