No he made an awkward gesture. This isn't definitive of anything.
You guys just hump to conclusions and only see one thing
"awkward gesture" lol yeah I know the talking point, you don't need to parrot it. generally I would it is pretty awkward to do nazi salutes, but not in republican inauguration. I think it was pretty appropriate and followed everything musk has already been doing. which is why you keep dodging that part.
It's not definitive.
it is absolutely, unambiguously 100% definitive to literally everyone who has at least a single eye and two brain cells to rub together.
It is uncertain and unless you're a fascist control freak, it's open to interpretation.
no it's not, and "saying this fascist thing is fascist is itself fascist" is not as clever as you think; it's the most tired, baby brained cover that fascists use and it doesn't work.
Well no it's true. You guys won't even entertain that or could be a misinterpretation. Which makes you fascist. Black and white fascists. And anyone who doesn't absolutely agree with you, you lambast. Another fascist thing. Your way or no way.
that's not what fascist means.
