Sigh. People, be reasonable. I know Elon Musk. I'm friends with Elon Musk. I've seen Elon Musk give a Nazi salute many, many times. And what you saw today,

I'm a woman and I would have said the same as Dan to you. Anyone who actually read the whole post properly could see it was satire, I can only assume those who didn't must have seen the first part and jumped to conclusions before reading to the end!
like, brother, you've just seen the richest man in the world, who will be in the next US government, throw up a Hitler salute while high on Ketamine... Satire is dead, it can't compete with reality in absurdity anymore.
It's not dead, but it feels like it might be on life support... It's up to the majority of sane people to continue to sit by its bed and remember the good times we had together...
I’ve been doing my living best to ditch twitter for ages but jfc every time I open this app I begin to wonder if leftists really are just as dumb as the right say we are
Absolutely! If you vote for it, if you allow it to happen without screaming at the top of your lungs, if you support it in any f****** way.... I hope you're a Nazi!
EVERYBODY LISTEN! WE NEED MORE PEOPLE LIKE SCOTT IN THIS WORLD! Everybody gets offended by everything these days! Don’t know you but you have to be a stand up guy for saying this!
I watched the speech and the context didn't make it better.
I've disagreed with Elon on a number of things, but you definitely shouldn't do a Nazi salute for whatever reason even as a joke to piss off the opposition.
But the joke isn’t minimizing the Holocaust. The joke is pointing out the ways in which “moderate, reasonable” people enable fascism by hand-waving away obvious signs of fascism and defending fascists. The target of the joke is fascist apologists not the victims of fascism.
Fascism thrives on binary thinking—"us vs. them," "superior vs. inferior"—rooted in colonial logic. Decolonization isn’t just undoing systems but dismantling this mindset.
Musk, raised in apartheid South Africa, shows how deeply ingrained these ideas are.
Anyone who defends it needs to repeat the same action and post it online and tag their workplace. And see if they think it’s just a roman salute. And last I checked he ain’t Roman and this isn’t Rome.
Right?! The dudes grandparents were actual Nazis. They literally went to South Africa for the segregation. How folks didn’t get that or get this joke … America sucks so hard
it's concerning that you're vouching for elon musk's behavior, even after the incident sparked widespread concern. a nazi salute is more than a harmless gesture, it's a symbol of hate and intolerance. we deserve better from our leaders.

It’s also a popular target of comedians, who enjoy poking fun of the airline’s ultra-no-frills nature.

That's more than a step too far.
