In the 1920s or '30s Henry Ford stopped or at least slowed with the antisemitic bile that he was spewing in his newspaper The Dearborn Independent, which put Hitler's Mein Kampf to shame and earned him the only favourable American mention in Hitler's book, because it was impacting sales of his cars. The question is whether the same might be the case for Musk, but his wealth seems decoupled from his cars, so it's not going to happen.
- dzhiurgis 2y agoI'll remind only leftist media calls him nazi and he's been persecuted by "antifa" for at least a decade. If you fail to see there's massive amount of propaganda then I'm sorry for you.
- johnnyanmac 2y agoI see you subscribe to the "roman salute" huh? I guess my eyes are propoganda if we're in 1984 being told to not believe what we view. He never rebuked it and in fact doubled down with jokes. So I'll call a spade a spade unless something changes.
- dzhiurgis 2y agoHe actually did in Rogans podcast. But also, why should he rebuke ridiculous claims? And once again, he has been persecuted by antifa basically forever.
- CyberDildonics 2y agoTo be clear, when someone does a nazi salute twice at the world's biggest political rally and people call it a nazi salute, that is persecution? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V1Zwiv8erk0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V1Zwiv8erk0
- dzhiurgis 2y agoYes, it is persecution to single out something/someone with no context... At least you could focus on Trumps power grab. Instead you are regurgitating propaganda.
- CyberDildonics 2y agoThe context was that he gave a nazi salute twice. I'm linking literal video of the event side by side with nazis and hitler doing the exact motion. This isn't propaganda, it is reality that you can witness for yourself.
- dzhiurgis 2y agoWho are the nazi's he is saluting to? Do you have any critical thinking?
- CyberDildonics 2y agoIs this what you're moving on to now? That it can't be a nazi salute because he needs to salute someone, even though it is identical to hitler doing it on stage? You didn't even back up your other points. You said it was propaganda and "persecution"!, but after a comparison video that anyone can see you back off those claims and gish gallop on to something else. Are you admitting that those are ridiculous? You didn't give any evidence that they are true and just moved on to something more ridiculous and tried to combine it with an insult. It's amazing that you would bring up 'critical thinking' while never giving a shred of evidence to back up your claims.
- dzhiurgis 2y agoSorry, but onus of evidence is on you. You are trying to manufacture an agenda. Who are the nazis? P.S. where’s your scrutiny for every other politician who made a salute. P.P.S. Elon’s “mistake” was supporting AfD who is often smeared with nazi’s, because it’s an easy target. It’s a far right party and nazis are super illegal in Germany.
