I was trying to play on the current that's a Roman salute. That doesn't make him a Nazi with the point that the salute was only his most recent Nazi-indicating behavior, the most egregious of which was buying and ruining a $40 billion social media platform so he could push his monarchist agenda. (With himself being the final monarch. It's always that way.)

I don't understand, how does him being a monarchist make him a Nazi?

Oh, I get it, I just think it plays in to their rhetoric more than it contradicts it.

They're grasping at any and every "he's not a nazi" straw they can find or make up, this just gives them another one to grasp to, because they wouldn't see or care about your intent, all they see is someone deliberately avoiding directly saying "musk is a nazi" or "what makes him a nazi is..", which is exactly their tactic and feeds in to their cognitive dissonance.

You're giving him the degree of separation they're looking for, which he does not deserve.

So again, I understand what you're trying to do, but I think that not explicitly saying "musk is a nazi because..." is counterproductive.
