Shame Trump makes your personal insecurities so apparent.

The Anti-Defamation League, an organization dedicated to fighting anti-Semitism, weighed in via X with a note of caution, asserting that Musk’s move appeared to be “an awkward gesture but not a Nazi salute.”

It was awkward yes but then Musk also has Asperger's syndrome. Perhaps a bit of awareness is needed

There is only one appropriate response to the OP that I can think of.

That is an exaggeration, the political pendulum swings to the left and the right to extrapolate the swing to the right with Nazism is ridiculous, yes there will be cases of extremism of the right wing faction just as there was in the left wing faction but we didn't become communists. That isn't to say that such events can't happen in the future but it would need extreme financial turbulence and poverty within the vast majority of the population and we are a long way off from that yet.

He's South African, who are anti-Apartheid. 

[ChaiyaTH]

No idea what nazism really is clearly. Many things here resemble that too, so why live here then too.

[Bkk Brian]

More context to show it was in no way a Nazi salute and those lying about such a thing are just spreading misinformation.

100% correct. The conditions in the Wiemar republic that brought Hitler to power do not exist in the US.

 

If, for reasons beyond Trump's control, the US ( and the world ) is hit by the big daddy of all depressions ( which I think is going to happen ), it is not inconceivable that an extreme right wing party will seize control,. However, it is not Trump that will be leading it.

I disagree with your last line, Trump is an extremist without any conscience, he is most certainly a sociopath and narcissist with no respect for the law, it is only political checks and balances that hold him back along with the fact that most Americans still have a desire for democracy.

National Socialism was just defeated in the USA by the election of Trump

Your post belittles the brave people who fought Nazism, and those who suffered under it. 

 

Grow up, you lost a democratic election.

That is pure inflammatory B.S.

 

Musk at Auschwitz

Lots of people are truly desperate to keep their tired narratives going. OP is grasping at straws -- at best.

 

Come up with some real evidence that Trump or Elon is "an actual nazi" or whatever the debunked leftist tropes say. Then and only then will people like OP have an intellectually reasonable argument.

From a country (NL) which is - rather understandably - sensitive to Nazism...

Keep digging in with this utter tripe. It's worked out so well over the last year.

 

What a pathetic thread.

Thank goodness it's only a small fraction of totally unhinged people. As evident by their continued garbage postings on here.

Now that their narrative has been rendered toothless and irrelevant, I expect the desperate anger to ramp up.

 

Let us remember the five stages:

Denial
Anger                       <--- I think most Trump haters are currently at this stage
Bargaining
Depression
Acceptance

One particular poster has raged back onto the forums after playing hide and seek. It's quite funny watching him froth.

 I'd argue with acceptance, I don't think they are capable of accepting democracy.

 

How about 'submission' 🙂

If he said 'free Palestine' you would brand him an anti semite before he has stepped off the podium, but he gives not one but two nazi salutes and you rush to his defence. Some things are beyond parody.

I see a lot of doubt here.  In fact, it seems like the story is made up.  You should be ashamed of yourself.

 

It's a shame that people are allowed to post straight up propaganda lies on AN.

It's not so ridiculous when you see which GERMAN party Musk is actively trying to help gain power in GERMANY.
