In times past, anyone doing anything like that around the president would have put the president on the fast track to impeachment.
Today, this will just slide, and we’ll have another piece of outrageous news tomorrow that nobody will be outraged about for more than 10 minutes. Different values today I guess…
The real headline should be “CPAC audience cheers Bannon’s Nazi salute”, because they totally did, and it leaves no doubt that CPAC is full of Nazis.
Distraction & diversion. He’s revealed his “secrets” in length in the past about his calculated moves in puppeteering the media and general discourse, preventing us from focusing on what’s actually important. It’s already working on the shoddy news media of 2025. Don’t let it work on general discourse as well
This was in the same speech where he said that the Holy Spirit was working through Trump to do all of this, and that Trump should have a third term and beyond.
It’s becoming obvious that we should be treating Trumpism as a religious cult, not just a political movement.
It’s always been a religious cult.
I shall now remind the world that the USA didn’t care all that much about nazis in WW2 until it got attacked by Japan in Pearl Harbor and felt the need to react.
Bullshit. We supported Europe similarly to how we’ve been supporting Ukraine.
We didn’t have boots on the ground, but we did everything short of that. It’s why Pearl Harbor happened.
Pearl Harbor happened because Japan was not happy about American imperialism in east Asia. Japan wanted to have its own imperialism in that region all to itself. It didn’t have much to do with America supporting European Nazi resistance.
Not another accidental Nazi salute! These clumsy Nazis keep accidentally throwing that Nazi salute around completely by mistake!
“Apparent”
Chickenshit Nazi enablers.
Apparent? Shut the fuck up.
What do mean apprent.
It’s super annoying isn’t it? The video is superbly clear. He did it, he did it on purpose, and he knew what it meant. You can see it, and his intent easily.
I’d like to go back to a simpler time. A time when nazis got shot in the fucking face.
Well these Nazis are back
Judge for yourselves … pretty blatant Nazi salute if I’ve ever seen one. Short and quick but it was a plainly obvious gesture.
1930s German Nazis would have laughed at it for being so pitiful and weak but it was there from what I saw.

If the linked time doesn’t work … scroll through to the end of his 15 minute speech at 8:16:32
America has a nazi problem and there is only one solution to a nazi problem
I think this is a stretch and i do this sometimes as well. An outreached hand as a greeting or similar. The Nazi salute is very obvious and has a strong flat hand at like 45 degrees. This doesn’t look like that.
Hey look they mentioned you in the article
… though Musk has not as of this date specifically denied the accusations that the gesture was a Nazi salute. However, for reasons one can only guess at, others took the liberty of denying that on his behalf, unprompted.
