Well the massive meltdown over this for the next week is going to be fun. I'm already seeing leftists seetheposting about "literally fascism"

Any time I see a headline about elon doing literally anything I just groan because I know its going to be talked about and melted down over to death for the next week to month.

I hope the crowd saluted back. It's basic manners.

The OK sign is back on the menu, boys!

Well, technically Indians are Aryans, so it is possible.

That just proves he's a real gamer, after all.

Endsieg-Elon!

Pretty sure that at this point a coomer that played nothing but h-games and dragontim's changed has more gamer credentials and dignity than elon.

Richard spencer is a low level fed and a already known "neo-nazi". Elon musk is the richest man in the world, SpaceX founder and a cabinet member of trump. The impact of this is way different.

Making that comparison is probably the most retarded shit I've seen.

Two people making a speech and then doing a salute to Donald Trump. Terrible comparison. Nothing in common.

It's just a roman salute. This is anti Italian discrimination and a crime against POC (People of Cappacuolo).

Good job they are all individuals otherwise they'd look like lonely little basement dwellers interrupting their pizza and wank sessions.

I'd assumed it was an anime reference.

 

[GlupShitto]

I hate that Elon's on my side. He manages to make Nazism look lame as fuck. This alone has killed any hope for the west realizing that Hitler was right.

 

[Salt_Merchant]

Do you reckon it boils elons piss that news orgs still put (formally twitter) in the chyron when mentioning x

 

[Broadside]

Holy optics Elon

 

[The Real Thing]

Can't believe mainstream media leftists are bullying an autistic African-American man for showing his appreciation to the Roman Empire. What has the world turned into, man.

 

[Malodorous Merkin]

In Elon's defense, he's riddled with autism.

 

[TittlyWinks ;)]

"Journalist" can't even spell "Capital" correctly. Reddit is creaming their spinny skirts over this one!

Watched the actual full context and, predictably, it's absolutely not a goddamn nazi salute. But we all know that doesn't matter. Would be pretty easy to find a still shot of Obama doing the same, Biden, hell there's even a shot of Kamala up above. The desperation is on full display and it's fucking hilarious.

Four years. Four more whole years of this, every day. Headline after headline. Freak out after freak out. I really wish politics was boring again. Eventually you rub the receptors endlessly and they just end up dead and pointless. I think I’ll take a week to catch up on WoggleBugLover.

Already some Kiwis out themselves as having no stamina. Weak.
