He’s called a nazi because he does nazi signs, endorses the German far right party (not a literal nazi party in itself but endorsed by neo-nazis), keep getting closer and closer to say Hitler did nothing (apparently Hitler didn’t murder millions of people himself so no responsibility according to him). If Hitler was a candidate today, Elon would endorse him, period. He could tattoo a svastika on his forehead and people would still find him excuses.

He didn't do a Nazi sign, he waved. He didn't endorse a "far right" Nazi party unless you're saying a quarter of the German population are secretly Nazis? They're right wing but they're not "far right". He didn't say Hitler did nothing or that he wasn't responsible for the Holocaust. He made the very good point that one man can't do that amount of damage alone, and it relied on the power of a centralised state with excellent record keeping. There is a reason modern European states don't even collect this data! States are dangerous. Your view is insanely warped. I don't know why.

  YOUR view is warped if you think that was a wave and not a nazi sign. Watch it again and do it in a public place exactly as he did (no "I’m giving my heart" bullshit) if you sincerely believe it was just a wave. This is so fucking unambiguously a nazi sign, it’s infuriating seeing people like you saying it’s just a wave. Damn, people suck

    But he did say he is giving his heart. You can't divorce that from what he did. It literally looks NOTHING like a Nazi salute from any angle. This is such an obvious example of psychological priming. I have waved plenty of times and nobody thinks it was a Nazi salute. You are being taken in by propaganda.

      Oh you can salute in public, that’s not the question. Can you do the salute Elon did, in public? Stretched arm, palm down, no wave. > It literally looks NOTHING like a Nazi salute from any angle I don’t know what to say to someone like you who’s talking in extremely bad faith. Finding excuses is one thing, saying it doesn’t even look like a nazi salute is straight up lying. I can’t engage anymore with straight lies.

      He didn't even use that phrase in the typical context which makes it look like a flimsy cover to muddy what this really is. You say that to express sympathy or sorrow. Maybe he was pre-apologizing for the sheer madness we are in now.

  >He didn't endorse a "far right" Nazi party Thiht said: >German far right party (not a literal nazi party in itself but endorsed by neo-nazis) Don't twist words. Not to mention their political alignment isn't up for debate or judge-y quotations.
