Ngl, I was sceptical since still images are not a good representation of what's really going on when people are moving around, but then I checked out the video. Good lord, he even did it twice.

Next he'll be wearing a swastika on his arm and claiming "oh this is just a whirling log, a symbol of prosperity and peace". And also "oh this is just a very black uniform that Hugo Boss made for me"

Guys this is a Buddhist symbol. I'm simply supporting America's religious diversity, you bigots.

And it's day fucking 1! We still have (at least) four more YEARS of this!

I'm reminded of Trump's first term, when we all thought it couldn't possibly get any worse, and yet it always did keep getting worse.

I can't wait until Canada joins the union and we go to war with Greenland as the new America.

I wondering if he did it to win a bet: "Hey man, we already get away with some fucken outlandish shit, and people ate that up. I bet you that you can't get away with throwing out a nazi salute on live tv"

fElon: hold my K...

Reminder that ~~~270~~ 170 million Americans allowed this to happen.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

This a good reminder that not voting is also a political position.

I think your math is a little bit off though.

There were ~244 million eligible voters in 2024. 75,017,613 voted for Harris*, which gives us ~169 million that allowed this to happen.

*The only other viable candidate, like it or not.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 21 hours ago (2 children)

Whoops, fixed. My keyboard somehow gave the blame to non-eligible voters too.

It's more like ~170 million. That's the population that didn't vote for Harris (i.e., voted Trump, voted third party, or did not vote) despite being eligible to vote.

Remember when everyone hated on regular Russian citizens for not forming a rebellious revolution against Putin and assassinating him in his sleep? For not shooting every Russian oligarch and everyone who rubber stamped the invasion of Ukraine? Remember when people called them cowards and “as good as nazis” for being complacent and not getting up and doing something about it?

Where are you keyboard warriors now that the USA needs you?

Just sayin’

Real funny how r/elonmusk official stance is that it was not a nazi salute. And yet the entire place is on complete lockdown. its as if someone just threw 3 sig heils while the cheers got louder only during the gesture.

The truth is all his supporters know exactly what it was and support him 100%

[–] [email protected] 2 points 14 hours ago

Mmmmmm not all. Plenty, yes, but there are surely many who just voted for whoever their rich, white, male pastor told them to vote for.

In the meantime while everyone is looking at Elon Donald is signing executive orders to

  • Grant top secret security clearances to White House staff without going through traditional vetting procedures.
  • Open the Alaska wilderness to more oil and gas drilling.
  • Eliminate environmental justice programs across the government, which are aimed at protecting poor communities from excess pollution.
  • Move to end birthright citizenship, which is guaranteed by the 14th Amendment, for the children of undocumented immigrants.
  • Declare migrant crossings along the U.S.-Mexico border to be a national emergency
  • Remove protections for transgender people in federal prisons.
  • Ensure that states carrying out the death penalty have a “sufficient supply” of lethal injection drugs.

Jesus Christ - I’ve filtered for all Elon and Trump news and this manages to skip the filter.

I'm not American, so I'm just now catching up with what happened over there yesterday. The first time I saw this image (elsewhere), I was praying that this was AI-generated. And I hate seeing AI-generated stuff and I'm not religious either. I still wish it was AI but now I know it's not and... jesus christ.

What a fucking loser. No friends unlikeable moron.
