Saw a video about this on Mastodon. It looks like they projected a whole video presentation that outlines a bunch of the Nazi shit Musk has done, not just the image of his salute.

Yep. Musk is a racist anti-Semite. Not surprised he's so well practiced on the nazi salute

It sucks that this is where we are. America once the defeaters of Nazi's. Now appointing billionare Nazi's with influence to government positions. Fuck man.

Well, we started out with a genocide so terrible Hitler idolized it and called it “The First Great Cleansing”. Also, you ever seen this image from the 1940’s? It’s in Madison Square Garden.

Also, when did America join the fight against the axis powers? Oh, 2 years after the war began? Only after Pearl Harbor? You’d think a country so moral would join the fight against genocide quicker.

Also, it was the USSR that “defeated” the Nazis.

That is an out-fucking-standing protest projection.

This will be great for business. If I had Tesla, I would try to get rid of it.

[–] slaacaa@lemmy.world 21 points 1 day ago

I’m working in Germany, and I see a lot of people complain about Musk and switching from Tesla, which was a very popular even a few years ago.

The people who can afford overpriced EVs are also the ones who can afford the “virtue signaling” to switch to another brand - especially as now there are a lot of great alternatives, many of them cheaper and better.

record number of people are buying Teslas!

Narrator: "Most were used."

[–] Corkyskog@sh.itjust.works 17 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Haha, I saw someone already selling elon salute stickers to put on Teslas. I kind of feel bad for anyone who bought one used or a long time ago.

Don’t feel bad. If you bought one in the last 8 years, you weren’t paying attention because he had already called the diver who rescued the soccer team trapped in a cave in Thailand a pedophile because they refused to use his horrible, horrible submarine idea. The man has always been megalomaniac.

everyone of the top 1% has to be a megalomaniac. openly supporting nazis and displaying their symbols is an entirely different thing.

The Swasticar Wankpanzer is 100% something he would call the truck if his sycophant followers jokingly suggested it.

Brave protest. Pretty sure Nazi imagery is illegal in Germany. Somebody correct me if I’m wrong

[–] nova_ad_vitum@lemmy.ca 442 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Making the German state officially state that this is Nazi imagery would be a worthwhile win lol.

[–] HasturInYellow@lemmy.world 40 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I'm pretty sure they have explicitly come out and said that the gesture was what we all know it to be. I'm sure the Internet can verify it for you though

Freedom of art in that regard. The only illegal thing might be to project something to the factory
