Interrupting my social media hiatus* to say it was definitely a salute. On purpose. And that’s the post.

It definitely was intentional to get us talking about *it* instead of the horrors we are about to endure

mamasissiesays.bsky.social•35 days ago

Luckily we can do both.

martietomato.bsky.social•34 days ago

Exactly! I intend to do both, that’s for sure.

uffdamj.bsky.social•35 days ago

Yep.

One salute or two?

mamasissiesays.bsky.social•35 days ago

Two ✅

Advice I was just given. Elon Musk’s gesture during his speech—Some say it resembled a fascist salute, others see it as a symbolic “throwing his heart” with his words of gratitude: “Thank you!” Watch closely and verify context to avoid being misled by edits or claims.

I watched it. Elon he knew exactly what he was doing. He’s not new at stirring up controversy. That was a choice. Any reasons prompting that choice are nefarious.

It’s a distraction…a real action:

mamasissiesays.bsky.social•35 days ago

But that’s my point. It can and does operate as both. All should be discussed.

pudgyprogressive.bsky.social•35 days ago

I agree…I had the same visceral reaction. It’s a motion that should not be made in any context. It’s forever tainted.

Also I am autistic. Don’t insult autistic ppl by suggesting Elon Musk didn’t know any better.

So, what was the excuse during 2017 Inauguration? (Do they think everyone forgot?)

sammy1956.bsky.social•35 days ago

Fuck that, he knows exactly what he is doing

Why do we keep questioning what we are seeing? And hearing? Can't happen here mentality?

martietomato.bsky.social•34 days ago

Gaslighting is why we question what we see.

martietomato.bsky.social•34 days ago

Agreed! The salute was definitely distinctive!

You know he practiced that in the bathroom mirror like 50 times because he is a fückińg loser! They are just starting off on the wrong foot.

mamasissiesays.bsky.social•35 days ago

It definitely gave off that energy.
