So im aware that this might be against rule 5, but i still wonder

The Musk salute has been the theme of nearly 90% of all posts I’ve read all week (day? Hour? It’s so many I can’t keep track)

I see some people complaining it’s not a nazi salute, and to be fair, if it was some other famous person not currently courting Germany’s afd I could understand the arguments.

But my question is: why have we not seen a massive response from the owner of X that it was not, in fact, a nazi salute? He must be aware. Has he responded and my news circle is just too left leaning? Or has he purposely ignored it?

To me the mere act of not acknowledging it is in fact a confession. But maybe he has and im in too deep in the “other side”

And also sorry for the bad English ➡️ not my native language

    He’s very aware. He’s posting jokes such as “You did nazi that coming” also he’s claiming it’s all nonsense left wing conspiracy and it was just a harmless wave. Your basic right wing gaslighting mixed with a bit of dog whistling.
