Today we celebrated Dr Martin Luther King day. And only concentrated on that . My friend turned on her phone only to catch Elon doing a Nazi salute. Who can be ok with this ?

But I don’t care how his supporters try to play it off. Decent folk wouldn’t do that, even unconsciously. I don’t care if he 100% meant it as a Nazi salute, or if he meant something else by it, the fact he didn’t have enough empathy to NOT do it says everything.
Not one person is okay with any of it.
I'm coasting right through the media hysteria and outrage while sipping on my tea & enjoying the Indica kush right now.
It's Dan Rather (FB post 02/17) & his book that speaks to our nation working together on remaining steady.
Steady is what unites us.
This is what they wanted and this is what they gave us. I was already having a tough time forgiving my relatives for believing this was America's future. Now, as far as I'm concerned they can all go fuck themselves.
I have yet to hear that anyone condemned it (hopefully I'm wrong & someone did). Sure seems like a lot of people are obeying in advance & calling it an "awkward" moment. Such BS.
I'm enthralled by the number of people doing mental gymnastics to excuse it ... because they don't like the idea of supporting a Nazi, and yet, here they are!
Nothing brings the soul of America into laser-focus like the fact that we could have been swearing in America’s first female black president ON MARTIN LUTHER KING DAY but instead chose the white supremacists.
Makes it a bit awkward for those coyly dipping their toes in the water with Trump...and criticising 'the left' for suggesting there are clear fascist tendencies.

He did it not once but twice
All while banging his Nazi chest.
