Once again, it is incredibly ignorant to suggest that just because it looks like a Nazi salute that was the intention. There’s no reality that suggests that was his intention. It’s just your political brainwashing.

Musk appeared at a far right political rally a short time later, and told them not to be ashamed of their heritage (https://www.gbnews.com/politics/us/elon-musk-afd-germany).

The AfD who he appeared in support of has been found in court to use nazi imagery in political advertising (https://www.world-today-journal.com/afds-moller-fined-e12000...).

So the seig heil didn't happen in isolation, there's a followup of explicit support for nazi-adjacent political ideologies.

Does this count as evidence to support that this was an intentional seig heil to you, even if it doesn't change your mind? What evidence would change your mind?
