Can you not see the difference between this Ancient Roman Salute vs The Elon Musk Salute?
Look at the fist of the Ancient Roman and see how it is SHUT, while Musk has a the Palm of His hand FLAT on his chest.
Then Musk replicates the Hitler Salute.
As usual, nice try oracle, but really that is a poor, poor excuse!!
Now correct if I'm wrong but did the Nazi's ever say '' my heart goes out to you'' when doing their thing?

Susie Wiles won't like this however...They most likely will not let him speak again anytime soon.

Irrespective of what Musk did or did not say, that gesture of his did mimic a Nazi salute.
But you desperately tried to compare it to the Ancient Roman one. Admit that you got that one wrong for once!!

Well what he said attaches to his intent...He claims to be thanking his audience for their support.
There are several other ways of thanking an audience, but that kind of gesture that the far right Neo-Nazis have adopted is definitely inappropriate!!
But that is not the first time that Musk has embraced anti-semitic stances:

He sparked an outcry in November, including from the White House, when he responded on X to a user who accused Jews of hating white people and professing indifference to antisemitism by posting, "You have said the actual truth." He later apologized for the comment, calling it the "dumbest" post that he's ever done.

Let's see if he apologizes this time!!

Oh boy, if there ever was a way to stir up controversy. Nailed it!

I'm by no means a Trump/Musk fan. That said, I have a really hard time believing he was doing a Nazi salute on purpose.
Name someone else who was video recorded accidentally doing it like that

The most common and well known way of doing that is to use a closed fist and bump one's chest.
It comes naturally and is part of western etiquette and gesture.
The nazi salute is not "accidental" or "emotional".
He knew what he was doing, who he was addressing and he purposefully did it.

And he’s not taking it back. He’s done a hundred other pro-maga posts on X after that and he is well aware that many accuse him of zieg heiling and he said nothing in response.

Be reasonable, lol...It's his intent which matters
In all honesty, neither of us truly knows his intent. We DO know that if it looks like a duck and walks like a a duck....The only way to truly know his intent is to read his mind. Can you do that? Otherwise it's just a biased opinion.

I'm sure he's heard the blowback by now. If he continues doing it
You are moving the goalposts. All you said was that if he does it again..
. and acknowledges that it is what you are saying then you've got your answer
. And you never said anything about acknowledging. And who in hell is going to acknowledge that it was the Heil Hitler salute. That will never happen, meaning that you will never admit it and your promise of conceding what he did was completely hollow and insincere. I thought that you were better than a lot of the other righties. Now you are sounding like every other cultist.

Put it this way...If he does it again I'll concede your point.
That's the same promise that you just went back on. Uh-uh. Fool me twice, shame on me.

There's your post. He did it twice, which means that he did do it again.
Orry. Are you a man of your word? There are no vagaries in what you said. There are no qualifiers. It sounds like you're willing to lie to protect MAGA. that is tDS, trump Devotee Syndrome, the inability to accept reality and to be capable of independent thought.

It's probably just his version of a Roman
what makes it probably? Can you read his mind. If not, you are in no position to make a statement like that.

As for Justin...I tried to like him I really did but c'mon he ain't his dad. Pierre was a savvy and articulate a politician as they come. His son not so much...Paul Martin I liked...Chretien did a good job...Justin took a left at Albuquerque though and kept on going.
I and many others tried to like trump but he just lies too much. So now we all have TDS even though we tried and you've just admitted that you have tDS. Anybody who criticizes trump is deranged regardless of whether they tried or not. That's called a double standard.

This has to be one of the weakest posts and arguments you've put on here that I've seen. I'm very disappointed.

You'd rather be a MAGA apologist than miss out on a chance to demonize Jews.
In fairness Jews are in an awkward place having fully banked on Trump because Dems have been trying to please team hamas. Ben Shapiro is now swearing up and down it was not a Nazi salute. It’s a sad state of affairs.

meanwhile:
Many online neo-Nazi groups were seen celebrating the gesture.

The leader of the neo-Nazi group Blood Tribe, Christopher Pohlhaus, posted the clip with the words “I don’t care if this was a mistake. I’m going to enjoy the tears over it.”

Andrew Torba, founder of far-right Christian Nationalist social media platform Gab, said “Incredible things are happening already lmao.”

A White Lives Matter branch posted on Telegram, saying “Thanks for (sometimes) hearing us, Elon. The White Flame will rise again.”
