Elon does this to himself. He uses his own platform to retweet and then delete anti-Semitic trolls and to promote the idea Churchill was the real WWII villain. He then gets offended if people point to the AfD's far-right ties. What's his excuse now, his mental issues, drug use? It's exhausting. This is another reason to stand with Sam Harris and other Musk critics, who also reject excess on the left.
It was a Nazi salute. Musk's portrait has been removed from the Deutsches Museum in Munich. Ask Germany if it was just a wave. The German newspaper Die Zeit covered Musk's upraised arm, for its article titled: "A Hitler Salute is a Hitler Salute is a Hitler Salute". Musk has endorsed the far-right German Party, AfD. Maybe sit in a corner and reflect on why you want to pretend otherwise.
Your incredulity is not an argument. I've made mine above. The world must be a scary place for you given how easily you are prepared to believe someone is a Nazi.
In a meticulous analysis of the recent inauguration event for former President Donald Trump, it has been observed that Elon Musk, the wealthiest individual globally, executed two conspicuous gestures reminiscent of the Hitler salute. These actions were deliberate and unambiguous, embodying a symbol historically associated with the atrocities committed by the Nazi regime, which resulted in the deaths of millions. The pertinent inquiry arises: what motivated such a display?
Upon rigorous examination, it becomes evident that Musk’s actions were not merely performative but emblematic of a deeper ideological alignment. Historical records indicate that Musk’s maternal lineage harboured sympathies towards Nazi ideology, with documented instances of Holocaust denial. His father, Errol Musk, has been characterized by pronounced elitist and eugenicist beliefs, further complicating the familial narrative.
The nomenclature of “Elon” is purportedly derived from Errol’s fascination with rocketry during the apartheid era in South Africa, specifically influenced by Wernher von Braun, a former Nazi scientist. This connection is further substantiated by references to von Braun’s science fiction work, “Marsprojekt,” wherein a leader named “Elon” governs a Martian colony. Such historical intersections suggest a deliberate cultivation of ideological continuity.
Musk’s public persona reveals inclinations towards eugenicist thought, advocating for increased reproduction among certain demographics and expressing views that can be interpreted as supportive of hierarchical social structures. His endeavours, ranging from support for specific political movements in Europe to ambitious projects like Mars colonization, can be viewed through a lens that perceives a pursuit of ideological propagation.
The public execution of gestures associated with Nazi symbolism serves multiple functions. It acts as a litmus test for societal tolerance, gauging the extent to which such actions can be normalized or dismissed. The relative silence or muted response from mainstream media and political entities may indicate a broader desensitization or unwillingness to confront such displays, potentially due to complex socio-political dynamics.
In summation, Musk’s actions and historical affiliations suggest a nuanced and deliberate engagement with ideologies that warrant critical examination. The interplay between personal history, public behaviour, and societal response underscores the importance of vigilance in recognizing and addressing the resurgence of such ideologies in contemporary contexts.
He should have also flicked a few 👌👌hand gestures for the white power enthusiasts out there too
Deftly summarized Stephen. I for one am already sick of opening the newspapers and seeing every headline feature the words "Trump" or "Musk". 🙄
I think it is his autism but he should have thought about how it would look.

Yeah, it's not like Germany to take something too far, is it?
If you want to believe Elon Musk chose that moment to purposely out himself as a Nazi, I have some magic beans to sell you.
You must live on magic beans to be able to actually believe such nonsense.
