Harris has not displayed any fascist tendencies while Musk has.

In my opinion, Musk knew what he was doing. He was likely trolling.

Elite snipers are in demand !

I'm not sure Trump has that long left. He looked pretty low energy to me.

Wouldn't surprise me if he didn't make it to the mid terms.

There’s not context for what Musk did, just as likely he was expressing his gratitude but the left have decided it’s a nazi salute so that’s what it is.

Expect a lot of stills in the coming days of people with their arms slightly raised as the Trump cult practice extreme mental gymnastics to defend Musk.

No context? Well, you haven't come across many of his tweets, including those that have been reported in the media.

You let the law take care of it....

So said a lot of Jews in Nazi Germany

Decide for yourself. Its emphatically a salute. I personally think its an attempt at a roman salute ( touching chest is Roman, Nazi salute doesn't do that ) but he knew full well what he was doing would stir things up.

It would appear a very odd gesture to show gratitude - at best hugely unfortunate, more likely preconceived.........

You get away with plenty of insults yourself on here when you lose your temper, probably a lot more than bigga, so please don't bother playing the internet victim.

Entitle this under, “They can dish it out but can’t take it.” Could secret Rags or, egads, Scousers…

That's the most dishonest photo probably ever put on here. Purposely screenshotting it at the point her arm was outstretched. Fuckin ridiculous when you watch the video clip.

Deplorable (again)

Ooohhhh the media.

Musk has a long history of boosting antisemitism on twitter. One of his first moves was to un ban a load of committed and unashamed antisemitic accounts including Kanye West.

He's been in trouble for commenting and liking on posts that are mildly antisemitic but where the comments are full of blatant antisemitism and pro nazi content.

We all know he sees this content. It's no accident. Same way twitter will be rife with such content now. He relies on his idiot supporters to defend him when he knows exactly what he is doing.

 

[Blue and true]

I'm pretty ignorant to this - why is he Nazi saluting?

Not sure I understand what he is promoting/signifying - is it just anti-everybody.........

Because he is a neo-nazi, on top of being a man-child uber ****.

Christ that's pathetic. Desperate, even.

I don't think it's a nazi salute either - just another example of a billionaire drama queen being an idiot.

All he had to do was say what we said but that wouldn't be over the top enough. And when going over the top he doesn't really have any parameters for what is dignified. He just as easily could have started mounting the podium.

 

[Manc in London]

Ooohhhh the media.

They were quoting the actual tweets. I am knowledgeable enough about political ideology to make up my own mind.

 

[Elbow beards]

Sure Dax will be along soon to tell us what a great move sticking two fingers up to the environment is and how we are all just misunderstanding it.

Always said if Spurs won the PL I’ll just chuck in football and that’ll be that - It’s how I feel with Trumps reelection, I give up on politics now and being bothered by any of it. I’ll concentrate on my circle and my family.
It’s depressing how many thick cunts we have in this world that enjoy all the hate and division that Trump, Musk and all the other right wing grifters bring and the bullying of minorities. Shame on America.

You've been watching West Ham for the past few years, that's enough pain to inflict on a supporter. To say you'd pack in if the Spuds won the League, fuck me there would be loads of us who'd have packed in if that was the case with our neighbours but we didn't, we stayed loyal and blue, grow a pair you tart.
