I hate these filthy Neutrals, Kif. With enemies you know where they stand but with Neutrals, who knows? It sickens me.
If I don’t survive, tell my wife hello.
Code beige
Multiple accidents in a row. Accidentally doing the same thing multiple times with a smile on your face. Enthusiastically making a mistake, repeating it, and not commenting about the mistake.
These are all examples of how people act when they make mistakes.
Also accidentally following a ton of Nazi accounts on Twitter and replying ‘interesting!’ or ‘you’re absolutely right!’ whenever those accounts blame the Jews/globalists/immigrants for anything.
Also saying the afd was the way to save Germany
We need to stop using the word ‘accident’. Accident my hole, he wanted to see if he could get away with it. So far he has.
What exactly is the “context” for doing a full-on nazi salute? Other than to show everyone that you’re a nazi?
He said the magic words “my heart to you” clearly clarifies that his salute was meant to be that, duh /s
A lot of people defending Elon but I still haven’t seen Elon defend Elon. Concerning.
He reportedly did a tweet mocking people for calling him Hitler (which I saw elsewhere since I’m not a user of his site). Incredibly, of all people, the ADL also chirped out the same “it was an accident” line as the media.
ADL? What’s that? Aryan Defense League?
The Anti-Defamation League is an influential NGO that’s supposed to fight antisemitism. Probably because Trump has repeatedly shown a fondness for Netanyahu, they’re apparently throwing Jewish people under the bus to sweep this under the rug.
More like AIPAC Defense League
Apartheid Defense League
I think he made some tweets about it
Only valid for the American political.
All my friends here in Europe, up to and including centre right, are the far left wojak in this meme
I feel like “noo it wasn’t a Nazi salute, or uh, it wasn’t intentional” is more of a “right of center” response instead of a “center” response, and “Elon Musk just did a Nazi salute on live TV” is closer to center, but otherwise this seems accurate.
Maybe the Overton window has shifted so far right that I’m wrong about that, though.
None of the mainstream media wanted to call it out for what it was. They profess to be centrist, but you could indeed probably classify them as centre right, especially when it comes to economic issues.
The problem is that America has no mainstream centrist or leftist media. It’s either center-right or far-right. The closest we get to a progressive are comics like John Stewart and John Oliver.
On this case, the “noo it wasn’t a Nazi salute, or uh, it wasn’t intentional” is a “nazis paid me to say this” response. At best it’s “I haven’t seen it, and I don’t trust you” answer.
But well, the people criticizing “centrists” are usually on that later category, and usually for good reason, so their experience may be biased.
No one does that on accident. This will be far worse than most expect
He also did it twice in a row.
He makes the face that a 12-year-old would make when trying to be cool and do something they’re not supposed to. It’s a recurring thing with him, both acting and looking like a shitty child.
Well, since he did it in the opposite direction, it cancels out the first one!
And what do we do with nazis?
Shoot them on sight, they’re enemy combatants 😏
Punch them in the face.
That is a lot milder than what I was taught.
It’s much easier if you remove the face first.
But you do realize they didn’t celebrate “not getting banned by court” with their small group of a few lads but winning presidency with likely a sizable chunk of voters fully supporting them in even their more crude views?
Time to buy more Dodge Monacos.
Is Saturday Night Live on this weekend? I hope they open with Musk the night before, practicing in front of a mirror. “First I’m gonna sieg heil, then twirl, then sieg heil again, then recite the Fourteen Words. No… maybe just salute, then do a HALF turn, then only HINT at the 14 words… People will get it!”
I hope they just completely recreate one of Hitler’s speeches but with Elon instead.
Or better yet, that video of Hitler watching the Olympics while completely tweaked out
Yes, with host Timothée Chalamet. Interesting that space hitler is hosting snl after Musk did this.
It would be awesome if they did something with this. But their corporate owners will doubtlessly forbid it.
Shift that center to the right a little more. I think the true center would say something like “Why are we still talking about Elon Musk?”
I doubt it. Even moderates understand that the richest man in the world getting his own White House department is novel and worth discussing.
I’m saying the opinion that is labeled as center is not center at all. It’s right wing. We’re saying the same thing.
I hate that this is a meme.
When you make a Nazi salute and you’re an average person making less than $60,000 a year and barely making ends meet … you are a right wing extremist Nazi that is hated by the general public.
When you make a Nazi salute and you control over $400 billion … there is cause for debate and questions about whether or not it was a Nazi salute
No one on the left is crestfallen or surprised or whatever that wojak means that an oligarch is also a fascist. Or that a racist dipshit who praised the nazi party like last week happens to be a nazi.
“My heart goes out to you” - Troglodyte response.
Exactly.
Almost like that’s the point.
