Maybe, but also but let's play fair. Taking a photo at the perfect moment to look like a salute is not quite the same as a video of Elon thumping his chest and giving a real one. (Twice, in case you missed the first one.) We all saw it. He's not stupid; he knows what he was doing. (And if he doesn't, he needs to work a bit more overtime so he can afford to hire better PR advisors.)

Wait, wait, wait... now suddenly, the left believes Elon is *not* stupid?

Make up your minds out there, lefties.

Or is this a new (albeit 180 degree different) position since he came out against the big beautiful bill?

I never personally believed he wasn't stupid. He's clearly a genius and a visionary in some areas (and probably a fair bit smarter than Trump, although that's a matter for debate).

But no one can be a genius in every area. Plus, intellect is arguably separate from values. You can be a genius and still be a bit of a douche (or even very evil/psychopathic, as history and Hollywood have shown us). Not saying he himself is evil or psychopathic btw; just pointing that out.

He made what looks to almost everyone (including one or two leading experts on Nazi history) to be a classic Nazi-style/far-right salute, then feigned ignorance. It's disingenuous at best.

Even if it was genuinely not intended to be one (as he claims), which is admittedly possible, the fact remains that that is how it looks to millions of people across the globe, whether they're misinterpreting him or not. It's not a good look, at any rate.

As an extremely high-profile individual with a LOT of cash and presumably access to the best PR advisors money can buy, it's not the kind of careless mistake you'd expect tbh.

So my own money's on him knowing full well what he did, either because he genuinely wanted to make a secret (or not-so-secret) dog whistle signal, or to meta-troll people because that's one of his hobbies, or for some other reason maybe only he knows.

Also please ignore my extra-word typos (glitchy phone).

I meant "was* stupid". Like I said, Autocorrect is glitchy/trolling me and you can't edit comments here.

So when Musk does it it’s automatically a real Nazi salute, but when someone on the left does it it’s just a “bad photo timing for them.”

Even the anti-defamation league, a leftist organization — has debunked the claim that Nusknfid a Nazi salute.

I think the whole point of the meme is that there’s too much misinformation deliberately spread by the media and to show it can be done both ways.
