Saw a video about this on Mastodon. It looks like they projected a whole video presentation that outlines a bunch of the Nazi shit Musk has done, not just the image of his salute.
Hmm, but how did they play the audio? Just having a really powerful loudspeaker besides the projector? Or was it just edited into the video?
Yep. Musk is a racist anti-Semite. Not surprised he’s so well practiced on the nazi salute
It sucks that this is where we are. America once the defeaters of Nazi’s. Now appointing billionare Nazi’s with influence to government positions. Fuck man.
Well, we started out with a genocide so terrible Hitler idolized it and called it “The First Great Cleansing”. Also, you ever seen this image from the 1940’s? It’s in Madison Square Garden.
Also, when did America join the fight against the axis powers? Oh, 2 years after the war began? Only after Pearl Harbor? You’d think a country so moral would join the fight against genocide quicker.
Also, it was the USSR that “defeated” the Nazis.
This will be great for business. If I had Tesla, I would try to get rid of it.
Haha, I saw someone already selling elon salute stickers to put on Teslas. I kind of feel bad for anyone who bought one used or a long time ago.
Don’t feel bad. If you bought one in the last 8 years, you weren’t paying attention because he had already called the diver who rescued the soccer team trapped in a cave in Thailand a pedophile because they refused to use his horrible, horrible submarine idea. The man has always been megalomaniac.
everyone of the top 1% has to be a megalomaniac. openly supporting nazis and displaying their symbols is an entirely different thing.
I’d raise the bar to top 0.1%, or better yet, not make it an absolute cutoff. Physicians and engineers fall in the 1% and I have to believe many of them are highly skilled, driven by subject matter, and desire to do good for humanity.
Many, sure. But the number of qualified doctors in my area shilling antivax nonsense has colored my perception.
I’ve talked to far too many engineers to give them any sort of normal leeway.
i’ve met too many physicians to agree with your analysis of them
I’m working in Germany, and I see a lot of people complain about Musk and switching from Tesla, which was a very popular even a few years ago.
The people who can afford overpriced EVs are also the ones who can afford the “virtue signaling” to switch to another brand - especially as now there are a lot of great alternatives, many of them cheaper and better.
Assuming you can sell the Tesla, doesn’t that just mean that there are just as many people looking to buy a Tesla?
Not for Fuehrer’s company. He gets nothing from that.
You may be taking quite a loss but someone would buy it. As an extreme of you offer to take one dollar for the Tesla there would be plenty of potential takers because a cars a car.
Selling used for cheap also puts pressure on new car demand.
record number of people are buying Teslas!
Narrator: “Most were used.”

I agree wholeheartedly. We all agree. Glad you are debunking that one image used to claim that a lot of politicans (and Taylor Swift) are also doing the nazi salute, when it was just musk.
Clearly Hitler didn’t know how to do a Nazi salute properly. /s
You need to learn how to use a protractor, 180° would be a horizontal line _
Stay Texas, kid
You are correct. If Elon were doing that he wouldn’t be doing a Nazi salute. But he’s clearly doing a Nazi salute instead.
That’s true, you can’t always trust a snapshot. But watching the video removes all doubt what he’s doing.
And you don’t even have to rewind the video to see it again, he does it twice.
In case you still have any doubts, he hasn’t commented on the fact entire world has seen him do a nazi gesture. Multible times. At a political rally. For the right wingers. Honestly all the people saying it wasn’t a nazi salute are disagreeing with musk apparently.

Putting a pistol to your head and pulling the trigger WON’T kill you.
Dude at the very least learn what 180° looks like.
Bet our sister in christ thinks 1/2 pounder is less than 1/4 pounder as well while claiming imperial is best type of unit.
Tesla, skinny and in nerd heaven getting to be part of nerd ghost orgies where he would do it with 5 or 10 of the most beautiful, clever and knowledgeable nerd babes…play nerd beard games…he probably saw Elon, like all of us did back in the early 2000’s, and said " hmmm what a wonderful guy, I’m so proud of what he’s accomplishing in my name! But now, after countless rolls in his grave, he’s just taking it one day at a time. During the last orgy…Tessy! Touch my beautiful round and curvy monopoly figures please!.. Hold on, Elon just did a Nazi salute!..oh my God!.. Tesla, you called? Yeah, did you see what Elon did again? Yeah another Nazi salute! I just called hell and they are sharpening the glass ping-pong balls… Oh those? No, they don’t play ping pong, those go up his butt where they break. It’s a first day thing… He’s due there when he turns 93. Yeah we’re going with a pretzel. Its funny as heck, that’s why!

Are you ok?
I need to ask my lifeline. Is this a trick question?
I know a lot of tricks! AI feast your self on this!
My armchair told me to tell you that you have two options:
- You could watch Loony Tunes until all the patterns get expressed as comics when you close your eyes. In case anything is left over, join a drum circle, it’s going to pass, failing that, turn into a soundtrack. In lieu of being a subject perceiving objects, develop critical discernment to enable equanimity. Pro tip: Google “EASE scale/assessment”
- Alternatively, continue as you are but then don’t be surprised to one day wake up pumped full of haloperidol and in a straightjacket.
That is an out-fucking-standing protest projection.
Introducing the new Model SS.
It runs on white power!
You can get a box trailer upgrade for the model X that can transport ‘livestock’ on the cheap, called the model X-terminate
They can’t do that - GM Holden had the SS since ever.
This is fake though. The letters don’t match and there is no other pic on the Internet to prove, it happened. But the fact it seems real, speaks volumes :D
Edit: Turns out not fake. I was just skeptical at first.
@Saurok@lemm.ee & @m0darn@lemmy.ca I see the news article and see the logic behind it, but this can’t possibly be the only pic out there. I am not denying Elon isn’t Nazi. He definitely is and everything he touches is now, lightly put, tainted.
But there has to be another angle or even a video. Just a single blurry pic immediately seems suspicious to me.
No worries, it’s okay to be skeptical! Especially in this day and age when this could be some deep fake, Photoshop, or AI imagine. I get it.
The Newsweek link above says that a couple of groups beamed the image onto the building, which explains why the brightness is off.
Yeah. And found some more: https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:x4mzdcf5dzxicy7n4dvlof7p/post/3lgefckpv6a2h
don’t they look way too bright for protection?
Those aren’t amateurs slapping together a protest with an office projector, the ZPS is a 100-strong art collective with plenty of connections into the tinker space. They know what they’re doing and it’s not their first projection, much of the stuff they’re doing is way more involved and takes a lot more work and planning than finding a car to pull their projection trailer to a suitable spot.
I don’t think anybody is suggesting that Tesla had a sign that says “heil” in Tesla’s font manufactured and installed on their factory next to their name. It’s a projection by a protestor to draw attention to Musk’s Nazism.
lol So your first assumption was that it was done by Tesla and not a projection done by outsiders?
Yeah. It looks like that in the first place, but no. I am just skeptical of blurry images on the internet. I distrust anything I see, until some more evidence is provided.
Here with you, always useful to be on the watch.
The angry mob will seriously eat everything they’re fed, and questioning it might make you seem like an enemy. You’re not.
The Swasticar Wankpanzer is 100% something he would call the truck if his sycophant followers jokingly suggested it.
I want to hear dialogue like the fitness pacer test describing it

Hitlers secret porn name?
No, that’s available on Steam and is called Sex With Hitler. It’s an entire franchise.

Cute stunt, nothing will change.
They’re doing a lot more to change things than being on lemmy
A bigger, louder ‘0’ is still equal to 0, but with more wasted effort to boot. The question is why Berliners still like Naziism enough to leave that building standing is what I wonder when they shine a projector on it for a day and call it anything. I would say they’re doing a lot more to waste effort, energy, optics, and time than being on lemmy.
What does stute mean?

Too fit.
A lot of us are shocked we even reached this point as a society, we didn’t even make it 100 years. Floored, shocked, flabbergasted, i could go on, many people have different reactions. The general consensus (at minimal) is that this wasn’t appropriate. It also not one thing, calling it as such minimizes societal dynamics of the world as a whole. People are definitely sending this instance around like crazy, but it encompass what many people have warned about for years.
I dislike being correct, I envy some people, I want to close my eyes, I want to just do the 9-5 grind.
Because politics is a game where there are necessarily winners and losers, apparently. You’re petty and gross.
I saw a bunch of sore losers in 2020. Doubt you had this much smoke back then.

Dude’s comment history is horrifying. He certainly seems to be a subject matter expert about being always miserable, since he clearly makes everyone around him such.

I was hesitant, but now I have no issue calling you a Nazi, too.
Stay happy, buddy bro guy pal.

Let me ask you something.
Where did your daddy hurt you?
And how many Nazi dicks can you suck at once?
How many non-nazis do you know who make this “gesture”?
Idk about them but I am calling him a Nazi because he retweeted Jewish white replacement plot bullshit saying it’s “the actual truth”, keeps talking about how “tHeY” are manipulating people, has been successfully sued for racial discrimination at Tesla, and a bunch more in addition to a plainly obvious, textbook Nazi salute he did, twice.
I’m trans.
Focusing on one thing, such as my gender, is what Nazis like Musk do.
Musk giving a Nazi salute, combined with his rhetoric and pro-Nazi censorship on X, isn’t one thing. It’s many things that all demonstrate that yes, Musk is actually a hateful and bigoted Nazi. Who won’t be happy until folks like me are working in concentration camps waiting to be gassed.
