The Trumpist movement has now formally adopted the Nazi salute, which should be clarifying but will probably be portrayed as the latest attempt to own the libs.

To be clear, this is an illiberal movement led by an authoritarian charismatic leader that glorifies a politics of brutality and uses a rhetoric of violent struggle.
So even if adopting the Nazi salute is *just* to own the libs, it is history repeating itself not as farce, but as irony.
I mean a bunch of damage has already been done - the fascist/groyper/alt-right++/whatever you want to call them actually have a major share of institutional power now. No good
