You can just say “Does a nazi salute”
Yeah, stop giving Elon a perpetual boner by calling this an “Elon” salute. Give credit where credit is due. Like you could say, I just took a giant Elon and everyone would indeed know what you meant, but you really should just say you took a big shit.
Awww, people are realizing a Nazi salute has consequences. Good for him!
Like all billionaires, Elon can (unfortunately) do whatever the fuck he wants and he will be okay. If your boss isn’t fasscy then you’re gonna get wrecked.
Ah yes. Elon’s salute. The famous salute. Sounds OK to me if it’s just a salute. Is there some simple way to describe this salute, to give the reader an idea if it’s a good or a bad salute? I wonder if there would be a precise description for this salute, my dear journos?
Ah yes it’s a nazi salute, of course. Easy to forget this adjective, since it’s completely harmless and very mundane.
Oh yes, some people did recognise that the arm gesture in question may have been used by the Romans. Very neutral, we all know the Romans were around a long time ago, so…
Obviously they’re both doing a Roman Salute!
(Doesn’t even need a /s because the Nazi salute is literally the so-called Roman Salute)
It’s just the
nazifascist salute. There’s no evidence that ancient greeks or romans ever did this.https://www.factchecker.gr/2025/01/28/the-nazi-salute-does-not-have-ancient-greek-or-roman-origins/
People is going crazy with these b/w filter just to make variations of Elon’s salute.
I do find it crazy that pcgamer is reporting this, because the rest of the news media has just faceplanted on journalism. Reminds me of the Bush Admin, when Rolling Stone Magazine was one of the only reliable sources of news thanks to the extreme corruption within the major publications.
I’m sure Teen Cosmo has some great coverage as well.
Rolling Stone was probably the only source of actual journalism during the Iraq Invasion for a time.
Oh the memories.
During the first trump presidency, teen vogue was doing the actual journalism and it was crazy
Until they shut it down, Buzzfeed News had become one of the better news organizations.
Well, the great news is that this guy doesn’t look anything like a god-damned villain…
Does anybody know why hes wearing a mic while speaking into another mic?
To counterbalance the two stick up in his ass
It is very funny that there are so many examples of people basically saying, “It wasn’t a Nazi salute, watch I’ll show you,” and then immediately ruining their lives by doing it.
They were already one half lost if they believed it was innocent in the first place.
They don’t really believe it’s innocent, they just want it to be ok to hate.
I’m sure most of them just believed they could get away with it and then abruptly realized they did not have the same power and influence as the richest man on Earth.
