No, they are in support of this. Look into our history in the 1930’s. It never went away. I remember in the ‘80’s that there were neo Nazi meetings and those who were marching where I lived. We didn’t shut it down.
I want everyone to give Elon Musk the middle finger salute right now. It will make you feel better. Ready. Now. Fuck off Donald you prick. Don't you feel better I do. Hi Mia.
Well, of course, under the influence of Felon34-In-Chief and his president, Elmo, the United States has become the outlier of all other civilized countries.
Also illegal to buy votes but he did that in PA and nothing is being done about it. These lawless people can do whatever they want evidently in the USA.
In Canada and most of Europe (including the Czech Republic, France, the Netherlands, Sweden, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, Ukraine, and Russia), displaying the salute is not in itself a criminal offence, but constitutes hate speech if used for propagating the Nazi ideology.
Nazi beliefs include support for dictatorship, antisemitism, homophobia. It resulted in the murder of political foes & at least six million Jewish children, women & men- 2/3 of the Jews in Europe. It means extreme cruelty & anguish.
There must be no place for Elon Musk in American governance

And this awkward Nazi is just an opportunist.
In those countries' reporting of this, the "heil" in the photo was blurred. & btw, the Nazi party in Germany is called "Alternative For Germany" (AfD) because you can't say"Nazi Party." Musk has overtly supported them & invited it's head to be onstage for the inauguration. Of course, Musk is a Nazi.
The Nazis were truly awful, they murdered not only 6 millions Jews, but also the mentally handicapped, gays, political opponents, Slavic people and Gypsies. Among others. The total is uncertain but probably reaches 15 to 20 million.
Not to mention the total amount of dead because of WW2 is thought to be in excess of 80 million. Brought to you by the ancestors of the modern day Republican Party and maga.
Not here they’re firing people who point this gesture out. How about that gestapo move? That guy holds no office and should not be recognized until he does!
I’ve been watching some mono series about the Holocaust. The occupation and destruction of so many European countries is something the US can’t likely relate to. It was a devastating war for the US but in Europe they felt the Nazis firsthand. We should all educate ourselves more on history
Watching Schindler's List is a good educational start. I even fact checked certain things in the movie because they were so over-the-top disgusting but they were all true. Crowd cult mentality always finds a further bottom to society as a whole. Why can't they ever raise us up instead?
It is but US 1st amendment freedom of speech gives everyone the chance to scream hate if they choose. AND we have the right (& dare I say: an obligation) to scream it down! This right is fundamental to US & quite frankly lets us see who our neighbors truly are (even if what they say is Evil).
The US also never banned use of Confederate symbolism after the South lost the Civil War, nor did it ban communist symbols. All should be illegal, imho.
But here in the good old USA it’s our God given right to steal the land, step on the faces of women, minorities, and those in need, and give all the Nazi salutes we want! ‘Murica!

We have the right to demand the government be replaced! It is protected by the 1st Amendment!
Use the Declaration of Independence & the Constitution to get govt to do their job!
It gives Americans the right to request a new government!

Trump could make it illegal to display the pride flag.

Mars, on the other hand, has no intelligent life that we know of....
It's about making sure bigotry is pushed because bigotry is wrong.
We need to call this shit out!

When their reaction instead is "Yes, and?" we'll have reached the nadir.
