In light of the above news, is there a petition for Activision and Grinding Gear Games to permaban Elon. Where's the bandwagon? I want on.

It's not hard at all, you choose what you allow to take root in your mind. Additionally, I disagree that that's what he did; his motion was not an actual heil, and I feel that labeling it as such without better evidence continues the unfortunate trend of dilution powerful words. I don't think a conversation on this topic will yield anything meaningful, so I'm not going to elaborate further, but I wanted to present an opposing opinion.
Ok, you lost any credibility your original words had when you said it wasn't a hitler salute. It clearly was. I wish I knew how to post video here. It's a 2 second video, and it's clearly a hitler salute.
They shouldn't hold any credibility in the first place, I'm just some faceless username. I already saw the video, that's what my opinion is based on. I say his hand's angle and movement are quite different from a heil, but if you want to disagree, that's fine as well.
