The Fagash Fuhrer, Nigel Farage says that Elon Musk and Steve Bannon's Nazi salutes were "not really Nazi salutes" because "they were out to the side."

Well, he is an expert on fascism.

You don't apologise for anything Nazi unless you are one. Even the Tories feared the N word.

He's so picky! Bannon & Musk just haven't studied Hitler in quite the detail NF has since he was a teenager.
Seriously though, any Brit thinking of voting Reform just needs to look at Trump's catastrophic regime to see where we'll end up if Farage gets anywhere near power.

There's an interview with Enoch Powell where he dismisses nazi salutes as a 2000 year old Roman salute

Mary Beard - expert on all things Roman disagrees with the Roman salute 'stuff'.

Oh it's very much nonsense but it shows how that excuse has been used by Nazi wannabees throughout the decades.

He has a point, to be fair. All we 70s schoolboys know that its only a full Hitler salute if you stick two fingers of your free hand under your nose to make a 'moustache' 😒🙄
