No, it's checkers. The same checkers I played when I bullied my sister as a kid.

  1. Get her angry about something.
  2. she flips out.
  3. mom and dad get mad at her.
  4. success!

Elon:

  1. Do something you could interpret as a nazi salute.
  2. The Left flips out.
  3. Oxegyn/attention goes to that instead of the evil shit in the executive orders. Plus, most Americans do not seem to think trump is actually going to pull nazi shit (gas chambers, attack the world, remove elections.) So we just look like the same whiners who screamed fascism from 2016-2020 until there was another election (not typically a fascist move.)
  4. Success!

It's not complicated, not brilliant but goddamn are we taking the bait like my 10 year old sister did.

Well, frankly he's pretty fucking uncoordinated if he was trying to do a sieg heil. Like, getting shot by the SS bad at it.

Which is the point. By making it close but passable, we freak out, moderates roll their eyes and the Left gets discredited.

I really thought we'd matured beyond falling for stupid shit lile that but I guess I had too much faith in people.

Look. He did “do a sieg heil”.

He did.

No “maybe”, no “tried”, no “looks like” - NONE of that.

Ya boi straight up did a nazi salute. Because he’s a massive racist. If you can’t get there, we can’t go any further.

Ah, you're an expert in nazi salutes, perfect, we need you now. Can you explain to the people how exactly like a nazi salute this was...? Wait what are you saying
