I quite literally said “not Nazi”, but I guess that in pigeon chess, you make up the rules of engagement.

You can say I’m acting in bad faith, that’s your opinion that you are entitled to, I’m telling you I’m not.

The reality of the situation is that you simply disagree with my opinion but you’ve chosen to attack me rather than the substance of what I’m saying. It’s called an ad hominem.

Godwin’s law.

Congratulations on having the debating skills and etiquette of a child.

I’m far too politically fatigued and long in the tooth to not see the funny side.

Elon Musk is the rage bait.

It is on Lemmy!

Seeing as they were founded to fight anti-Semitism, I’d expect them to know a Nazi salute when they see one.

Let’s check back in 2029 and see how many people got genocided and how many people were being hysteric.

To play devil’s advocate, he specifically means those who were born to foreign people staying in the US illegally.

I’d say the definition is quite simple, if you don’t have a visa/permit/green card.

To be fair, I do believe he is specifically talking about illegal immigrants and they’re supposed to get deported.

I think Trump is a raving mad man but that your proposed scenario is extremely unlikely.

What’s more likely?

A large proportion of Americans are very ready to be extremely upset and will look in to things that aren’t there, like a socially inept Musk appearing to make a Nazi salute.

Or

Musk intentionally made a Nazi salute.

I know it’s emotional times, but I think a huge amount of people aren’t thinking rationally.

I still think it’s possible that he actually has that little social awareness.

Wouldn’t a Nazi that thought Musk is also a Nazi be saying that it is a Nazi salute?

I don’t think devils advocates or people that see life as shades of grey rather than black and white are default Nazi’s, but I understand that the US is an emotionally turbulent place right now.

Full stop lol

Get out of here with your rationalism. Musk is a literal Nazi and we’re all going to die!!!

In a post that only shows an image your comment is rather ironic.

I guess I’m going to be the one that plays devil’s advocate as there is no context here other than a still image, but is it possible he wasn’t intentionally doing a Nazi salute and has just been caught in an incredibly awkward pose?
