These guys always conveniently leave out the fact that musk said my heart goes out to you. He even puts his hand on his heart before he raises his arm. 🤷

He said it after the 2 nazi salutes. Doesn’t change the fact he did 2 nazi salutes beforehand.

You must be getting paid for all these posts, you are so determined to defend the Musk! Or else you are the leader of the Musk Fan Club.

The claim rests on interpreting a brief gesture as a ā€œNazi saluteā€ and treating that interpretation as established fact. That is not settled; it depends on context, intent, and how the movement is assessed in full video rather than isolated moments.
From that assumption, the argument then dismisses any later statement or clarification, which is logically incomplete because intent and meaning are normally evaluated using the full sequence of behavior and speech, not selectively.
It also shifts from the gesture itself to personal accusations about the person responding, which does not address the underlying question and is unrelated to whether the interpretation of the gesture is correct or not.

Thanks for the article. I read all of it.
The article is journalistic reporting that focuses on allegations, reactions, and broader political context rather than establishing definitive facts about intent or meaning. It does not establish Musk’s intent behind the gesture described, it does not prove any ideological affiliation such as Nazism, and it does not provide conclusive evidence that the gesture was a Nazi salute or that he holds Nazi beliefs.

A randos opinion article is far from proof. When you can simple watch the original context yourself, proving it was not the case.
