You call it what it was, a Nazi salute.
Because if he cries defamation and wants to sue, stand there in court and give the judge the finger. The judge shoukd either accept that hand gestures have commonly accepted meanings or endure the whole case while you give everyone the finger. Probably make a few wanking motions with your hand for good measure...
News from today; german prosecutor is investigating against the guys who projected this on the Teslafactory for showing illegal Nazi symbolics. So: for german prosecutors it definitely was a Nazi salute.
So this will be added as a right wing crime in the logs? Got it
His response kinda confirms it was exactly what it looked like:
“Frankly, they need better dirty tricks,” Musk wrote on the social platform X, responding to a post describing the “salute hoax” as “just another part of the ‘dirty tricks campaign.’”
“The ‘everyone is Hitler’ attack is sooo tired,” Musk added, with a sleeping emoji.
The only response to that should be
Straw man: Nobody accused you of being Hitler
Yeah, I mean, it's obviously trolling to begin with. What he did is undeniably similar to the nazi salute, yet he dismisses that fact without even slightly addressing it. It's intentionally lazy, and trying to conflate less-apt Hitler comparisons with an incredibly applicable one. Because he knows this approach will work for his intended audience, and he gets to chuckle to himself about being untouchable.
Yeah, it's not like the Germans would have any special insight into Hitler and not invoke him lightly.
hey, I'm not doubting them at all. When I first saw this headline days ago I thought. "surely it's at least plausibly deniable".
It was not. The mask is all the way off now.
That wasn't in reference to you, but Muskrat.
oh, gotcha
That is not German humor, that is German anger.
Tbf, german humor and german anger are hard to distinguish by people who aren't used to both.
Genau.

I'm actually impressed you created that one 2 years ago, I assumed you just did it for this joke.
We Germans have a very good humor actually we wrote the book aboud it. A whole compendium. Thousands of pages. The most comprehensive work you'll find. It's just not a funny book.
I can picture this very German explanation of what humour is. A technical manual on it and how to be funny, and yet not a single "lol" was had in the reading
German humour is no laughing matter.
You don’t get a “vroom” from reading a car manual, either.
I feel like there is a joke here that I am missing.
After you've read the jokes in the book you will miss the feeling of laughing the first time you read them
Led By Donkeys are British (they formed in the wake of Brexit)
Center for Political Beauty is also a dope name and group tho. They do great work.
And i thought that's a very beautiful photoshop, even emulating the light ray.
Same here, knowing it's a projector that everyone can see just makes my day.
People in South Africa must hate this guy
For good reason.
🤘👏

Edit: Added cancel after x in url
Damn, there are comments defending Musk, saying that Tesla are the safest or that Europe is dead because of leftists.
My fellow Europeans, can we please ban them, ban X and all the US republicans, never speak to them again and just continue living a good peaceful life with the rest of the world?
Why oh why do they post on x only and not say threads or bluesky?
The engagement drives profit and funds Nazis.
I don't think anyone who considers their self decent should be using xitter anymore. They just normalise the acceptability.
I think that is strange as well, the fact that this happened is important in my opinion. That's why I shared it. The video is great.
If someone finds/hosts it elsewhere I will edit my comment
You can add "cancel" after "x", like this:

https://bsky.app/profile/ledbydonkeys.org/post/3lgeadvbaek2g here is a bluesky post
The contrast is insane. So many people on shitter love the taste of leather, apparantly.
Because of the target audience. We know this already, many others don’t. Yet. But I agree they should post it elsewhere too.
Holy shit, those comments are insane
Are people really this dense? It is clearly a nazi salute.
Saying "My heart goes out to you" does not negate the fact that I just showed my middle finger to someone.
Oh thanks for that ‘cancel’ tip!
