SKY news and CNN say it wasn't a nazi salute. Of course it wasn't, it's the extremely dishonest lens through which the left interprets anything and everything their ideological opponents do and say.

Isn't that right cammd?

I guess when ever distributeing nazi material you gotto explain why first etc. Even tho i think jojo rabbit was pretty wild.

Anyways considering my family were in the camps etc as prisoners of the nazis i guess im allowed to jump in here.

If you skip to around 1: 20
?si=rZI4yGfecVxOJ9zH

Ive only just really realised hitlers actual salute is like a little 90 degree angle arm raise.... awkwardly this is what i do on the beach with all my students when i signal them to turn the kite on a 90 degree angle to ready it for a launch... altho hitler seemed to do it a little more sassy gay then i do his hand falls back past the 90degree kinda like a queer eye guy ooooo dont botherrrr thing

Now the way everyone else salutes hitler by haveing theyre arms by theyre side when in the presence of him and when they salute they kinda simply raise theyre arm with it in full lockout with hands quite ridged and together like a robot paddleing if the 3d modeler couldnt afford an elbow joint.

What elon musk did wasnt either of th?se 2 thing tho by god did it look like it

Anyways hitlers little daaarrrrllling wave is pretty funny it would be funny if elon busted a couple of those out instead


All jokes aside ive been to aushwitz birkenau and the level of realisation that humans were even capable and the FACT that you realise they ARE capable of doing what they did there is just.... its so deeply saddening and troubleing that you dont even think of it as ooooo the nazis were bad its more like..... how can humans of any variety even do this and its very very sobering realiseing that if they could do it then then anyone could do it again at anytime.

Anyways i definitely dont believe what elon did was a hitler salute etc even tho he may have been trying to do some sort of high emotion and energy sort of expression or whatever.

Its just not the same thing.

Bloody close tho but i honestly believe as long as the museum etc is at aushchwitz and the tours etc then we as people cant do that **** again im sure all we would have to do is somehow physically plonk the people trying to recreate something like that there and they would simply feel what one has to feel when viewing just rooms and rooms of shoes or spoons or hair etc etc not to mention everything else like its just so uncomprehendable

Also while on topic... this whole... generational trauma thing with the aboriginals etc etc they had 200k to 500k people killed over 20 odd years or something maybe 30 i cant quite remember

Holdomor was freaking 3million to 5 million and was FULLY INTENTIONAL and only over a bloody 2 year time span....

Now i dont want to be measureing dicks here but holodomor was 10 years BEFORE ww2 talk about double bubble on a weekend

Also i think watering the term nazi down is a really stupid idea it shouldnt be used unless refering to an actual nazi party member from that era and i think we need to accept and acknowledge that basically anyone can be a member of any political party i still dont understand how everyone just went along with it all i wasnt there but all i know is they did and i really dont believe an entire country of people can be all bad there must of been huge percentages of regular people involved and that is the part i think we really aught to pay the most attention to. Regular ass people were stomping around in uniforms herding other people up like cattle to slaughter them. I mean theyre german so not that regular but you get my point. I have became friends with every german i have ever hung out with i do find the fact that they cant laugh without showing all theyre teeth at the same time a bit concerning but apart from that theyre alright ya know.

Anyways all humans can be horrible.
dont forget it.

The medias makeing me feel like americas being fleeced by billionair conmen but THATS the media. I have no idea whats really going on maybe theyre the good guys how the hell we ment to really know sitting on some little island miles away. I honestly think all the previous presidents are playing nice because a large portion of the population has been manipulated into an almost civil war outbreak situation and thats just the sort of thing BRICS would need to over throw the usd as the gold standard etc etc most rich people invest in both outcomes of the fight especially if they can control it so who knows maybe it is a big club and we just aint in it.

Pretty much

Its not always even an interpretation, sometimes its a deliberate fabrication like the Russia hoax thought up and implemented by the Dems that the entire left wing media of the world jumped on board with.

Other times its a complete denial of simple facts, some examples come to mind, Oct7 didn't happen, gender is fluid, unborn babies are not human, the Uluru Statement is only one page. The left will say anything to suit their agenda.

Reading the subtle sarcasm in your post above, you stand ready to believe Elon made a Nazi salute, meanwhile likeminded people are running around Sydney setting fire to child care centres because they think some Jews might go there.

Is a picture worth a thousand words?

Given the other thread on symbolism, the next presidential term in the US is off to the symbolism Olympics. Or maybe its just Elon's 'proud boys stand down' moment... time will tell.

And just for sh!ts and giggles, a past meme that seems somewhat prophetic given Elonsnow letting the cat out of the bag..

Good to see people have learnt from last time.

The Russia collusion thing didn't work, the Ukraine/Biden coercion didn't work, the stealing of classified documents didn't work, the "his wife is about to leave him,...any moment... now....now...umm now", didn't work, the Georgia election thing didn't work, the Jan 6th thing didn't work,.......

So this time it is straight to "he is a Nazi". No pussy-footing about this time, wham-bam straight to the Nazi thing.

Only thing left if that don't work will be to say he is ..... a racist.

I'm not woke, I'm awake.

If Elon Musk did that gesture in public in either Victoria or NSW he would have been arrested. The court would decide his intention.

I find it bizarre that the gesture is illegal here, giving it attention just promotes it. Is it only in Australia that it's illegal?

Is there, or was there ever, a 'Proud Boy' chapter in Australia?

If the Proud Boys aren't banned here it would be a good outlet for cammd to share his grievances - against all things woke - with 'likeminded' fellow cucks, play footsies and salute all he wants.

Was in Germany last year, it's illegal there and Austria I believe. Most other western countries class it the same as hate speech so subject to fines and jail time for repeat offenders.

Some good comments there. I wasn't offended by Musk doing the gesture. I just thought how strange, and found it interesting that right wing media outlets seem very keen to write it off as 'Nothing to see here'.

^^ I thought the same thing.

I figured the words that went with it might also be important for the context. So I had a couple minutes spare and watched (about the 1.00 minute of the below video for the actual arm gesture event)

****-me. People are worried about the one arm gesture ? I thought Trump couldn't be beaten as an egomaniacal narcissist. How very wrong I was. Who in their right mind would let this freak on stage, on any stage, anywhere, anytime.



sorry, Mark_Oz, that above is a Fox youtube video, they edited out the gesture. The below is an NBC video, so they made sure the gesture was in (about 17 seconds point), but this video below missed the start of the "speech".

This is your best rant ever. Not sure how you found your new clarity but keep it up. Yeah, Auschwitz, been there too, disturbing.
You're gonna have to let go of the watering down thing, anyone who corrects my grammar gets the label.

Now I've seen it
looks like a poorly executed kinda karate chop move
not well thought out
clearly not a Nazi salute but he's a dope for holding the position briefly after the sweeping motion.

If you look at it in context with what he says to the crowd directly after the gesture, "my heart goes out to you all" it's pretty obvious what's intended.

No need to look overseas for Nazi's we got left wing fascists leaving their marks all over Sydney.

Seeing that Zuckerberg might be more motivated to have the cage fight.

Hell, if that was Musk's karate move I recon even Carantoc would be able to take him down.

Left wing fascists - is that what your Facebook redneck AI algorithm tells you?

Police are saying that the wave of antisemitic vandalism might be funded overseas, maybe Russia, and are suggesting they are paying Sydney crime gangs in crypto over the dark web for the vandalism.

The vandalism doesn't seem to be particularly well organised, it's kind of random. There's been bad spelling and its not well targeted. Like it's been done by kids or people who don't have a clear motive. Which in many ways is more of a worry.

They have arrested a few people, but something about the antisemitic vandalism happening in Melbourne and Sydney almost daily doesn't quite add up to me.

I hope it stops here soon. Unnecessary in Australia.

That's a fairly accurate definition of the term cammd

Seem to fit in with what Trump is trying to achieve in the USA at the moment with team of oligarchs.

Gilead, was the first thing that came to mind.

I heard what we saw yesterday wasn't the inauguration of Donald Trump. My AI powered Facebook algorithm called it the coronation of the oligarchs.

The elites have been replaced.
