Man, I still remember everyone telling me I was over reacting when the Republicans cOiNcIdEnTaLlY had an Odal rune for a stage and that they weren't really Nazis.

For those that have had enough of the Elon Musk worship online.
No flaming, baiting, etc. This community is intended for those opposed to the influx of Elon Musk-related advertising online. Coming here to defend Musk or his companies will not get you banned, but it likely will result in downvotes. Please use the reporting feature if you see a rule violation.
Opinions from all sides of the political spectrum are welcome here. However, we kindly ask that off-topic political discussion be kept to a minimum, so as to focus on the goal of this sub. This community is minimally moderated, so discussion and the power of upvotes/downvotes are allowed, provided lemmy.world rules are not broken.
Post links to instances of obvious Elon Musk fanboy brigading in default subreddits, lemmy/kbin communities/instances, astroturfing from Tesla/SpaceX/etc., or any articles critical of Musk, his ideas, unrealistic promises and timelines, or the working conditions at his companies.
Tesla-specific discussion can be posted here as well as our sister community /c/RealTesla.

Grug: Heh he made a from-the-heart gesture
Midwits: A NAZI salute, I cannot believe it, L~~~i~~~t~~~e~~~r~~~a~~~l~~~l~~~y Hitler! Get the emigration papers I'm doing it this time, fuck / He totally did the salute brothers and sisters! 1488!
Monk: Heh he made a from-the-heart gesture
(I cbf photoshopping it, it's lateπ€)
Wait⦠that really happened? Reality just never stops to surprise me.
For once he's doing it wrong, not that it matters, and secondly he looks like he came while doing it.
Ackthually, he is doing the Bellamy Salute (still wrong, but more like that than the nazi one)
Yeah, the topic drove me to a rabbit hole and I got to learn a lot of different Roman (Fascist) salutes
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roman_salute
TL:DR is, Bellamy is the american nazi salute and the sieg hail is the nazi nazi salute. So they are pretty different from each other as one can see.
I see, I'm from Germany so I only really know "our" salute. That's actually quite an interesting article.
This was one of the most insane scenes in a game Iβve ever seen. I love this game
May I ask what game this is?
Wolfenstein the new order and Wolfenstein the new colossus, this part i think is from the second but I played them back to back so theyβre basically one game for me
Thanks! I dug a little deeper and I must say, it's pretty intriguing, I'm honestly considering trying it out.
What game is that?
Wolfenstein 2
Time to play it, if you kill the Nazis ofc
a fucking masterpiece, btw
I wonder how trump feels that the most viral thing about his inauguration wasn't him
If he has any sense that overcomes his pride, he should be grateful that someone else is taking some flak for him.
Well, we know he doesn't have any sense, but if he did, it would most certainly be overcome by his need to be the center of attention.
Reminder that Fox News declared Michelle Obama a terrorist over a fist bump.
This is becoming a meme.
Used by the left to attack Musk. Used by the right to praise him.
The left and the right, the only two kinds of people in the world. Two homogeneous groups, two hive minds
God I hate those labels

Yeah, that's undeniably obvious what it is
The ADL is defending him. Bootlickers.
the ADL is a zionist organization that supports genocide. they're not bootlickers. they're the sole of the boot itself.
ADL do not care about anti semitism at all. Their only concern is anti zionism.
Zionism is the same kind of ideology as Nazis, just with different "superior races" ("the chosen people") whom they claim to represent and sub-humans ("human animals") whom they claim to be both inferior and a danger to them.
So it's absolutely natural for a pro-Zionist organization to side with other Nazi-like ideologies as long as the "superior" and "subhuman" ethnicities of both do not collide, and in this case they both share the view of the Northern African Islamic people as subhumans and they probably see their own "superior" races as being a kind of White - so White Jews and White Christians (if you have any doubt of this for the Zionist side, go check out how Israel treats Ethiopian Jews).
Just when I thought the ADL couldn't be anymore useless, here's REAL Anti-Semitism and they're not doing anything about it.
I mean, i didn't have Latina's calling it nazi and Jews being like "nuh uh" on my 2025 bingo card
They just figure that this time, Jews will be far down enough on the list of "first they came for..." that MAGA will burn itself out before it gets to them.

Fuck the ADL
I was on the fence about them for past shenanigans but this is the final nail in the coffin. My friends are now telling me that musk did not, in fact do a Nazi salute because his fingers weren't pointed the right way
Ask your friends why they're so familiar with the proper performance of the nazi salute.
