Trying to meddle and interfere with foreign elections wasn't Elon Musk's smartest idea

He spent an outrageous amount to buy his own platform just to boost tweets that ironically highlight how making - or losing - money doesn’t reflect talent in anything else.

Well, he wants to do business in Germany yet when the cameras are on, he can’t suppress Nazi salutes. He says he wants a trial.

There are a compilation of these salutes of top Democrats doing similar gestures. Has there been anything more by Elon on this front in addition to moving his arm (accidentally) in a specific angle?

Is this your most honest reaction to his act? Have in mind that he did it twice to be sure everyone got it.

Musk retweeted a post suggesting that public sector workers, not Adolf Hitler, were responsible for mass murders during the Holocaust.

But hey. Are you really curious or just cosplaying?

I personally think the resemblance is accidental (have you seen how many times AOC does it in one video?).

But hand gestures weren't the worse thing the nazis in Germany did - have you seen anything else that supports your caim?

Only the single leader committed the crimes?
