I speculated a short while back that with Musk’s true dream of immortality seeming less plausible every year, he has turned his sights on being remembered by history.
I think I was right, and some sort of drug fueled edgelord logic has led him to conclude that fear is strong and universal, and being a cacking villain gets your name to “stick” with people the most.
Or his ridiculous luck has given him the world’s worst case of Main Character syndrome, and the game play that amuses his fried brain involves griefing the NPCs.
Reminder that Fox News declared Michelle Obama a terrorist over a fist bump.
They do claim that they’re nOt lIkE fOx nEwS aNyMoRe, though.
Wait, what?
One might be associated to a minor ethnic group looking for representation because they never had anything.
The other is associated to a fascist regime that destroyed the world and killed millions.
I wonder how trump feels that the most viral thing about his inauguration wasn’t him
If he has any sense that overcomes his pride, he should be grateful that someone else is taking some flak for him.
Well, we know he doesn’t have any sense, but if he did, it would most certainly be overcome by his need to be the center of attention.
I hate this fucking timeline so goddamn much
Not a Nazi salute.
So he literally turns around and does it a 2nd time.
How can anyone deny it now? There’s no way this is coincidence, like he’s just really awkward with gestures and was bad at throwing his hand in the air to the crowd. This can’t be explained away.
Wtf bullshit argument or defense is he and his supporters going to spew out?
They all say he’s such a genius, but he’s unaware of how close this gesture is to a nazi salute? There’s no way this can be defended. It’s just too obvious.
He’ll claim that the gesture went along with his words of his heart going out to people.
Press X to doubt.
How can anyone deny it now?
Easy. Bad faith.
I think many of them just won’t bother. Why would they need to? They got control, no need to pretend anymore.
Nailed it.
So he literally turns around and does it a 2nd time.
Yup.
Just like Nazis did. Once to the crowd. Then turn around and once to the Fuhrer, ranking officer at the event, or Nazi flag.
It’s called post-truth and gaslighting in some developments of the phenomenon. I think this is, among other things, an experiment coming from the Donald administration.
When the opposing party funded a genocide, this is what you get.
Everyone funded a genocide. If you paid taxes, you did too.
I’m not trying to excuse Biden for his love for Israel and material support for them, but singling out “the opposing party” as the issue here is missing the method of reform that’s actually going to fix it. The issue is American politics and media, and the American system. Let’s fix that. If you thought singling out the Democrats as the problem that needed to be got rid of was going to fix it, brother just wait, because you succeeded and your plan is going into action as of now.
Fuck off.
Thank goodness the Nazi’s never got into genocide…
A lot of Democrats are fascists
What happened to the twin that was removed from you with the rest of your brain?
You have a complete disconnect from reality & live in a fantasy world. When is the last time you were committed?
I know very little about USian politics but I’m gonna ignore that comment. I don’t want to call your political literacy into doubt, but… sorry, I’m gonna have to.
You’re a nazi
No I didn’t vote for the genocide supporter.
And look at the Nazi in Congress now.
Yeah lots of them. The Democrats kept voting against the Jewish Congressman’s, Bernie Sanders, resolutions to stop funding the genocide.
The Democrats kept voting against the Jewish Congressman’s, Bernie Sanders
Why exactly did you feel the need to call him Jewish there?
bro you’re a straight up moron.
Lucky escape, that
And you think Orange Butt Boy and President Elon are going to make it better?
Did I say that? It sounds like you were part of the blue MAGA genocide-supporting crowd that helped him get re-elected.
Out of curiosity what did you do to not help Trump get elected?
…20hrs later, crickets from little John…
I mean, their notification window must be stacked, probably easy to miss this one. Also did I see they got banned somewhere else in this thread for trolling?
They seem to have a pretty strong opinion on this so I’m interested to hear what they think the actual solution is (or was assuming that line of attack isn’t open any more).
Dude we didn’t vote for this asshole as part of the blue crowd. How the fuck you think the blue maga supporting crowd even exists because it doesn’t.
I mean sure you might be one of the trolls doing a psyops but what the actual fuck horrible take is that.
This shit logic: Oh you’re going to vote for someone that is currently slapping you in the face. Well if you support that you might as well just vote for the people that are going to shoot you in the face. So fucking dumb.
Did you demand Kamala stop supporting genocide, or demand everyone fall into line instead?
There’s a little tiny hill with a little tiny you dying quietly of ignorance.
Nobody is taking you seriously dude.
No, no one is taking Democrats seriously anymore because of people like you which is why they lost… to Donald Trump
We’ll see about that. Nazi.
When you can’t properly place blame this is what you get. Enjoy the boot, pigfucker.
Did you vote for the genocide-enabler?
No I didn’t vote for Trump.
I don’t like Trump either but it looks like he did more to end the genocide than Biden was capable of doing. Heck, even Trump gets to take credit now for saving TikTok, a platform where approx. 80% are against the genocide in Palestine.
ah yes, famously people who give Nazi salutes are anti genocide.
I hate Musk too but Biden was the President that kept sending money to murder 70k+ civilians, approx 25k children.
I’m sure Trump will make things better for people living in Gaza…
The App that Trump pushed to ban in the first place?
And yet here we are where he gets to take credit for bringing it back. Trump was even mentioned as getting credit whenever users opened the app. Like I said, Democrats are not all there… With AIPAC dollars, corporate donors & insider trading… They don’t need to win, they just need you to believe if you donate enough they might be able to.
Are you sure about that? https://denvergazette.com/news/nation-world/trump-cancels-sanctions-on-far-right-israeli-settlers-on-occupied-west-bank/article_16677638-637b-5d6f-a262-a551f8767f38.html
Canceling Biden’s sanctions on Israel letting them have the funding they want to continue their genocide reeeeealy sounds like doing the opposite of “ending a genocide more than Joe did.”
The same settlements that continued under Biden? It wasn’t until 2024 that Biden claimed sanctions that targeted very few organizations but never targeted the actual government backing the settlements. Before you try to pretend that Biden never supported genocide through 2025, maybe you should do some more research. I am not fond of Trump & my point about the ceasefire & TikTok was that Democrats are incredibly inept to not have got it done before, letting Trump take credit. I can only hope for the best at this point.
Never said biden didn’t support israel’s genocide, just pointing out that the new guy is already undoing all the meager attempts to slow the genocide from the previous guy.
I’m not even American and all you are is ridiculous
Which country are you from?
Do you even see what you just did?
Go fuck yourself.
Bro, why you upset? You helped Trump get re-elected. You should be happy with yourself.
Didn’t take long for you to fuck yourself.
Do you wish Kamala wouldn’t have supported genocide so she would have got elected?
How are you even remotely serious about this line of questioning? I’m not going to entertain someone who considers the far right to be the better option. You utter moron.
I don’t think they are a good option but your attitude right now sums up why Democrats lost to the person they claimed was the biggest moron of all time. Remember that whenever you call someone a moron, that you’ve proved to be an even bigger moron already.
Remember that whenever you call someone a moron, that you’ve proved to be an even bigger moron already.
So you’re calling them a moron?
Im not American. I dont need to remember anything about the ridiculous things you have said. You are clearly and plainly a moron. The democrats lost because a lot of Americans are morons like you. The vast majority of every developed country if the planet has been rolling their eyes at your stupidity for decades. Amazingly, you doubled down and made it worse at every step. Now you have nazis in charge. You somehow blame Kamala for this? I honestly don’t know if there has ever been someone more stupid than you.
I’ll bite. What’s the thinking here? How did Dem voters help Trump get elected?
Not all Democrat voters, but a lot were incapable of even acknowledging that Genocide Joe was in mental decline before he dropped out. Heck some of them are still convinced he would have won despite the campaign now acknowledging that they predicted Trump would have gotten 400 electoral college votes had he stayed in.
Rather than have a quick primary to find a replacement, they coronated another genocide supporter. This was wholly unpopular with the public & people most likely to vote Democrat, with recent polls suggesting had Kamala deviated from Biden on Israel that she could have got 13 million more votes.
When people reminded them how unpopular genocide was before the election they were quick to ban or censor any dissenting opinions on the subject, rather than to call for Kamala to do anything different. They censored & ridiculed the most sensible voices which ended up costing them the election.
None of this supports your assertion that the commenter above helped get Trump elected?
recent polls suggesting […]
I’d like to see those polls. This doesn’t really make much sense to me. If you wanted someone to reduce casualties in Israel, why would you vote for Trump?
There were people protesting about genocide outside democrat rallies. Weird that no one was protesting about that outside Trump rallies.
I think it’s a grave mischaracterization to say dissenting opinions on genocide were banned or censored. Since the dawn of time, campaigning politicians haven’t wanted to talk about issues that they’re unable or unwilling to solve.
I didn’t vote for Trump, but I didn’t vote for the genocide supporter Kamala either. I’ve saw countless opinions or any dissent when it came to Palestine get people banned from communities that were all pushing the same, “Kamala ran a flawless campaign” communities. Here you people are again unable to look in the mirror to figure out why you lost & helped Trump get reelected. You want to blame anyone & everyone, but can’t look in the mirror to figure out why you lost so much support.
Oh shit, the leaders of the Democratic Party are on Lemmy? No wonder they lost, I wouldn’t trust you Lemmings with running a gas station, never mind a country!
So you didn’t vote for Kamala, criticised her campaign, and are here accusing Dem supporters of helping Trump get elected.
Sorry mate that’s just all sorts of ass-backwards bonkers.
I don’t see many people saying that Kamala ran a flawless campaign. It’s pretty obvious that the Dems did a pretty terrible job, but to strut around saying everyone else helped Trump get elected just because they werent more critical of Kamala is just daft.
Yeah, you “stopped” the genocide abroad, time for domestic genocide!
Yes why should they have all the fun
Yes, the person seeing a literal Nazi salute from someone Trump is giving a lot of authority to, and using that as an excuse to attack the Democrats instead of saying “this is fucked up”, is definately very concerned about genocide…
It looks like you got exactly what you wanted. By supporting a pro genocide candidate you got a Nazi as a result.
Says the person refusing to be upset about the literal Nazi here.
I’m more upset that you are complaining about the person you helped get elected
How exactly did I help get Trump elected?
When
the opposing party funded a genocidethe election was literally rigged this is what you get ftfyThis, my friend, is a 400ton edgelord take. One could talk about the underlying analysis but my, your tone is the first thing that strikes me. No one Hi will suffer under this administration would understand this. Fishing for purity-vs-sheeples won’t help anyone.
P. S. : In my book, the dems are awful, and I’m not even an US citizen, so I’m not directly concerned.
I just hope you’re very young and will regret your wording one day.
I didn’t vote for the genocide & Cheney supporter, so no I won’t have regrets.
Not gonna lie, my eyes bugged out when I saw that. I knew masks were falling off, but this was too on the nose even for my expectations
Same. Already? Couldn’t wait a single day?
And there are people desperately trying to say he wasn’t doing a nazi salute. I refuse to let someone tell me I’m not seeing what’s right in front of my eyes.
Who are you Goin to believe, the mass media or your own lying eyes?!
God damn, he is such a cringe-inducing edge lord!
So heil Hitler it is, now?
Granted, I never thought he’d get this far, but I’ve been saying for nearly a decade now that Musk is a lucky scammer who will do anything if it benefits himself.
I wonder how many people are left of the original musk groupies that thought musk was so cool and was going to save the world.
Do you still believe? Are you still that stupid?
On the bright side, if we’re remarking on history’s propensity for repetition, consider how much the odds have just gone up that Elon’s personal timeline now ends doused in gasoline and set alight in a ditch, like a pasty, doughy little pile of garbage.

Nope.
He’s definitely on something here other than uncut white nationalism, right?
Who cares?
Him and Bezos for sure were on something.
Oh shit - what did Bezos do??
One can only hope whatever insane shit these people are injecting themselves with in an attempt to become immortal, just wreaks complete havoc on their internal organs.
The caption made me laugh before the video even loaded.
White Pow(d)er
One doesn’t excuse the other.
Oh, if anything it’s even more revealing. I’ve been out of my mind on shrooms and never did any Nazi salutes.
The nazis were big into meth. Have you tried that for a few decades in a row?
I take therapeutic adderall sometimes for more ADHD, and was on it for a couple years straight at one point, not one nazi salute. Not even close.
People keep asking when the Apartheid Manchild turned this way. I maintain that he was always this way and is now just comfortable expressing it. But I think, too, the increasingly erratic behaviour has a cause.
Look up the list of symptoms of ketamine abuse.
Now look up the increasingly bizarre behaviour of the Apartheid Manchild.
There are intriguing parallels. Right down to the paranoia.
A Sieg Sauer could fix that
Rusty spoon would be more satisfying.
bro he was clearly slapping a fly on his chest and then throwing it away and then he turned around and did it again c’mon the radical left will say anyone is a nazi these days
Well there are always lots of flies around shit
Jesus fucking christ…
Wow. That’s bad.
E: Musk is such an ass that I wouldn’t hesitate to suggest he did it deliberately to troll liberals and press. Not because he holds any actual nazi beliefs (though he absolutely could) but because he just wanted to stir the shit in the news.
