If it was a genuine mistake he would have sincerely apologised. Only a nazi doesn't apologise for making a nazi salute.

[-] Knock_Knock_Lemmy_In@lemmy.world 8 points 14 hours ago

Is "Thanks guys" the only comment he's made on the topic?

(Asking here because I don't have a twitter account)

Lot of businesses backed up Hitler and his Nazis too.

A lot of them even came out of that whole situation in pretty good shape.

The most important lesson I learned in Hebrew school was that the Holocaust would have not been possible without IBM.

If Elon walked out wearing a red arm band with a swastika, the ADL would be talking about its history as a Hindu symbol.

[-] Count042@lemmy.ml 87 points 18 hours ago

Never forget that the ADL spied on American citizens for Apartheid South Africa on behalf of Israel during the Reagan administration.

People seem to forget that the ADL is not a Jewish advocacy group, they are an Israeli lobby group. Israel is a far-right government that is actively engaged in genocide.

[-] inv3r5ion@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 11 hours ago

Also remember it’s in Israel’s best interest to conflate Jews with zionists and make people worldwide hate Jews so they make Aaliyah to Israel and create babies for the IDF. Also the goal of the “birthright” program (what a fascist name right?!)

[-] ZILtoid1991@lemmy.world 36 points 18 hours ago

Reminder that Zionists like to collaborate with antisemites, in the hopes of accelerating emigration to Israel.

[-] Not_mikey@slrpnk.net 18 points 17 hours ago

Not so fun fact: early on Hitler was a zionist, or at least considered it a good "solution" to the "Jewish question" before he came up with the final solution.

[-] lightnsfw@reddthat.com 28 points 17 hours ago

Regardless of if he intended to do a Nazi salute or not exposing the public to that level of cringe should be a capital offense.

[-] inv3r5ion@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 11 hours ago

I hope his Tesla malfunctions with him in it. Shitty ass car killing a shitty ass person would be chefs kiss

[-] hungryphrog 12 points 15 hours ago

Nazis defend a nazi doing a nazi salute. Color me shocked.

[-] Zagorath@aussie.zone 131 points 22 hours ago

The ADL are defenders of genocide. Is it any wonder they'd be pro-Nazi?

The ADL exposed themselves as a hate group 14 months ago

[-] drascus@sh.itjust.works 21 points 18 hours ago

what the hell weird timeline are we on.

[-] Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 186 points 1 day ago

He's laughing at them. He feels so safe.

[-] Saeveo@lemmy.world 82 points 23 hours ago

He's laughing with them, they're out there gaslighting people for him.

I'd feel pretty safe if I literally controlled the platform everyone was speaking on, too.

Anti-Defamation League. Basically a zionist organization that goes after anything they percieve as being anti-semitic. Their definition of anti-semitic typically seems to include vocally supporting Palestine & not supporting Israel.

Part of what makes this noteworthy is they call anti-semitism often in dubious cases where it is not present - so them defending Elon sieg heiling multiple times is unusual, but also likely a calculated move to not distance their organization from president musk's administration.

[-] harrys_balzac@lemmy.dbzer0.com 49 points 22 hours ago

It used to be Anti-Defamation League but it's looking more like AIPAC Defense League.

[-] bdonvr@thelemmy.club 58 points 23 hours ago

They're an organization that calls out antisemitism.

Problem is saying anything against Israel, or pro-Palestine will get you on their public list of antisemites, along side your local neo-nazi militia members.

It's Zionist propaganda and intimidation.

[-] FreakinSteve@lemmy.world 22 points 20 hours ago

So they're a Nazi organization

[-] ImplyingImplications@lemmy.ca 32 points 1 day ago

Anti-Defamation League. They're a non-profit political group that state their mission is to combat anti-Semitism. They're mostly a pro-Isreal group.

[-] Count042@lemmy.ml 6 points 16 hours ago

They spied for a foreign government. They should have been required to register as foreign agents and the only reason they didn't was because the foreign government was Israel. Instead they just had to notify the US citizens they spied upon that they spied upon them, and what they discovered.

Why wouldn't they? The ADL has never had a problem with fascism, they're one of it's staunchest supporters.

[-] HappySkullsplitter@lemmy.world 42 points 1 day ago

The ADL has been in Trump's pocket ever since he moved the US Embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem

[-] geneva_convenience@lemmy.ml 33 points 22 hours ago

Musk attended Netanyahu's visit to Congress. And Musk went to Israel for a propaganda tour of oct7.

Fun fact zero babies were shot in their crib on oct7

I heard of ADL Wayy before this,And its pretty classic they are doing this judging by their past.

(oops wrong acc but its fine)

[-] takeda@lemm.ee 40 points 1 day ago

Yeah it was just "my heart goes to all of you" also known as "Meine Ehre heißt Treue”.

[-] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 6 points 18 hours ago

Did it ever occur to you that maybe this was simply a mistake? Never assume Malice for something that can be explained by utter stupidity. If it was intentional he probably would be bragging about it non stop.

[-] frezik@midwest.social 14 points 17 hours ago

Did it ever occur to you to watch the video? Even the first time was a very deliberate movement, and the second time should remove any doubt.

[-] explodicle@sh.itjust.works 14 points 18 hours ago

I think he didn't mean to do it in that moment, but he appears to have been practicing.

[-] HikingVet@lemmy.ca 9 points 18 hours ago

Oh, you don't heil twice by accident.

[-] takeda@lemm.ee 5 points 16 hours ago

It is hard to do it by mistake, and even if let's not treat 53 year old man as some kid that didn't know.
