Elon Musk: *Sieg Heil*
Mainstream media: what an odd salute… What could it possibly mean? Is it a space salute? Is he pointing at Mars?
@jamesravey @aral "odd-looking salute" is one of the most convoluted ways of misrepresenting a nazi salute.
@maddler @jamesravey @aral I thought the same when i first saw it, and was telling a friend. But it seems they've changed the headline. It's now "Elon Musk accused of giving ‘Nazi salute’ at Trump inauguration celebration".
@maddler @jamesravey @aral
You are asking me to give the guy, that literally promoted the AfD*, the benefit of the doubt? Nope!
*AfD: Racist party in Germany, that uses Nazi-rhetorics and even that salute in their speeches to dogwhistle to their people.
@daarin @jamesravey @aral clarified previous post. That's pretty clear what that is.
Someone even said that's "just Elon Musk being autistic expressing his feelings".
@maddler @jamesravey @aral Wasn't clear before, but in that case I don't mean you literally.
The name of that account sounds funny to a German Shadowrun player.
@jamesravey @aral "he described it as the nu-not seen movement and then tip toed away, grinning and twiddling a non-existent mustach."
@hopland @jamesravey @aral
Dogwhistling. Sad, that mass media doesn't want to see it!
