No, they do it so we talk about it instead of the actually dangerous executive orders etc.

And damn is it working exactly as intended because, like my sister when she was 10, we can't help but take the bait.

So good. I had his reddit app before. Functionality and customizations are the best.

Yep. There was a myriad of options to end such speech, including humble waving or nice gestures.

No, that Nazi chose to show a Nazi salute. It was intentional and calculated.

With no intention to defend Elon Musk.... Jude Bellingham doing a Nazi salute by mistake and Toni Kroos lowering his arm.

In any case to me Elon's gesture looks very much intentional(either because he wanted to stir the pot or he actually means it), and even if there is doubt, he is not the kind of man that deserves benefit of the doubt.

What if you're really drunk and you're trying to hail a cab but you can't rustle up enough strength to get your arm outside of the danger zone?

He wasn't drunk or hailing a cab so I don't know what you are getting at.

That it is possible to do it accidentally. But a normal person would realize their mistake and apologize profusely.

Is he doing some sort of soccer hand signals?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago

Okay so first technically that's not true. It's possible.

But Elon 100% did that shit on purpose.
