That was one really expensive 'Roman' salute ...


It was two salutes: https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2025/jan/20/trump-elo...

So really it only cost half as much. What a bargain!


> My heart goes out to you

Such a nazi thing to say.

> We’re gonna have safe cities

Utterly fascistic.


You're rationalizing his fascist salutes.

Can you also rationalize these lies by Musk: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42902603


It's a nazi salute, not fascist. Obviously he's not a nazi.

To be considered fascist he would take over control of gov. Instead he's removing it...

What starts to become obvious to me is people use "fascist" as a derogatory insult without understanding what it means.


> To be considered fascist he would take over control of gov. Instead he's removing it...

You need to brush up on your Mussolini research, bud.


> It's a nazi salute, not fascist. Obviously he's not a nazi.

So.. it's obvious that he's not a Nazi because he performs Nazi salutes.

Fascist salute, Nazi salute, Roman salute. It's all the same thing. It's all the trappings of fascism.

> To be considered fascist he would take over control of gov. Instead he's removing it...

This is absurdity.

And the lies? You haven't rationalized those yet.


So everyone not good at gaming is a nazi?

FSD was my pet peeve, but at least we are now seeing something so good that I actually wanna buy and use, albeit for little less money (obviously in supervised mode, I don't wanna use my car as a fucking taxi).

> He lies about Cybertruck quarter mile times

Still extremely impressive truck even if it lost by 0.1s to a just as dorky looking tiny car for 3x money. Do you actually believe every ad you see?

> He enjoys and promotes conspiracy theories

Yes that sucks, wish there was a Elon feed where it's actually only his technology tweets. I hate what x turned into, but reddit and bsky is just as an unbearable shit show.

> He dabbles in antisemitism

Sorry but this not antisemitism

> He stokes partisan division over the Los Angeles fires

IDK wtf was that, but he gone suspiciously quiet pretty quick.


> Still extremely impressive

There's nothing impressive about blatant lies. You've embraced nihilism. It will do you no good.


Blatant?

Blatant naivety is just a bad.


Yes, you shouldn't naively invest your boyhood hopes and dreams in a sociopathic oligarch.

When you carry water for Musk you get to carry his baggage too.


just watch the video man. it's clearly a nazi salute.

I did many times. Has he ever affiliated himself with nazis is any other way?

How about videos like Macron doing exactly same salute?

How about Netanyahu standing up for him?

Trying to cancel him for feelsies is just reinforcing his stance on anti-woke.

Defacing Tesla offices, charging stations and cars with actual swastikas is doing far more damage than imaginary boogeyman.


gettin a bit defensive there? does calling out the fact that Musk obviously did a Nazi salute strike a chord with you?

IDK man, seems like you are in support of nazi's?

Won't be just France. I wonder how the stock is going to take this, being the meme that it is.


Up, surely.

By executive order if need be.


This will be good for Tesla.


The new model SS will be a great success....


Surely everyone will want a swasticar.


Model NA2I.
