    This take i agree with. I still have reservations on what Musk really was intending to do there. There’s a slight variation in the way Musk did it and the way the Nazis used to do it, but it still demands an apology regardless of the facts.

      I’m of the opinion that Musk didn’t do an actual nazi salute. He did what he thinks is the nazi salute because he himself isn’t a real nazi. He’s just an insecure little man who wanted some approval and acknowledgement from actual nazis, so he did the salute as a “look, I’m totally one of you guys”. He’s a wannabe nazi. Not that there’s a big difference because whether you’re an actual nazi of a wannabe nazi, you’re still a piece of shit. But I think him being a wannabe nazi fits with his public persona of being wannabe everything. He’s a wannabe engineer, he’s a wannabe tech bro, he’s a wannabe gamer and now he’s a wannabe Nazi.
