German authorities are investigating images projected onto the Tesla Gigafactory just outside Berlin that depicted Elon Musks Nazi salute at Trumps inauguration.
www.dw.com
This kinda puts Musk in an interesting bind.
He can push German law enforcement at the perps who projected this on his factory — but he’d have to admit that it’s a Nazi salute.
Or he can continue to deny that it’s a Nazi salute, and if the authorities accept his assertion, that most likely means there’s no crime and the protesters might be able to continue their stunt.
Police investigate Musk salute projected on Tesla factory – DW – 01/24/2025
The British campaign group "Led By Donkeys" has claimed responsibility for the stunt that authorities say may have breached German laws on the use of symbols linked to illegal organizations.

Musk Gaslighting Germany about its past.

I have never seen Germans acting guilty of the sins of their fathers. They do try to make sure that madness never happens again. Musk must think that making sure it doesn't happen again is "woke" or some shit.
Musk to far right Germans: "Forget that your country started and lost two world wars, you're the master race, get out there and prove it!".
The grandfathers of today's Maga Trumpers who took out the Nazis would not believe what's happening today and are turning over in their graves.
Musk is a paid subscriber to “Boer”. A pro apartheid South African account on X. He is definitely not concerned about the past “sins” of his native country. Looks like he wishes they would return..
I wonder what makes Musk think that he's an expert on Germany and how its citizens feel about their past. Maybe it's just simply that he likes Nazis.
Elon Musk tells German crowd to be proud and move beyond the 'sins of their parents' during video appearance at far right event
Musk recently caused uproar after he made a gesture that drew online comparisons to a Nazi salute during President Donald Trump’s inauguration festivities.

Breaking News: The New Normal Has Arrived.....again. Elon Musk and his orange skinned moron underling normalizes Nazism once again, taking the nation back to the heady days when The German American Bund and the KKK attracted tens of thousands of Americans to its ranks. History repeating itself with devastating results. Dividing the nation in order to seize it, what a great day for democracy.
In addition, it seems to me as the far right exploited the Great Depression to its advantage, the present day MAGAT "movement" attempted to and successfully did create a similar air of desperation, racism, suspicion, misogynism, nationalism and isolationism out of thin air that in part launched The Felonious One back in power.

In this respect he's just like Trump where they both think they're the smartest guy in any room they enter and that they are adored and respected wherever they go. Hits them dead center in the overly inflated egocentrically triggered parts of their brains that makes them behave like they're super stars that were given unlimited powers to bend and break things their way. Being drunk with power seems to be a very mild description of the power trip they're hallucinating in.
Elon looks as if he's been kept in a cage for years, went full on psycho in there and upon being released crossed over the line where insanity and derangement have become his two best friends.
edit - The scary part in all of this is there's no one in that funny farm of theirs that's able or willing to rein them in.

I think we're going to see tons of litigation going on (and on and on ...) during this administration. BTW, in case you didn't know, if Elon had made those gestures in Germany he would absolutely have been in violation of the law and subject to arrest.

Those defending Musk’s Nazi salute as some sort of “awkward gesture” there are a billion awkward gestures he could have used. Twirling around in a circle and dropping your pants is an awkward gesture. A Nazi salute isn’t an awkward gesture.

Musk taking on the role of a racist fascist influencer with a bottomless pit of cash to make it stick and having the president of the United States backing his play? Is this what the folks who voted for The Orange Menace wanted from him? More deep tax cuts for himself and his ultra wealthy henchmen while slashing funds from Medicare, Medicaid and other essential social services for the middle class and the poor to pay for it?
The folks who put these two clowns in the highest positions of power and influence in the nation should be held accountable for giving birth to this atrocity, yet as usual, all they do is walk away from the damage they cause to themselves and the rest of the nation along with a parting flick of the wrist and a "Ha ha, fuck off, so what?" as their escapist catch-all answer to it all.
Worse still, they'll come back around every election cycle and pull the same shit over and over again.

You can't keep making the same transgressions and just apologizing all the time. That's called being an asshole. Apologies are empty if you don't change.

There's no legitimate controversy regarding this. IT WAS NAZI SALUTING. Any attempts at denial are straight up prevarication. What the hell else could it have been? There's nothing else I've seen said (echoed in this thread aplenty) is remotely plausible.BTW - in case anyone had doubts on Musk’s position on the antisemitic spectrum

Musk is a very strange extremely dangerous man.

Tell me again why this guy doesn't at least sympathize with Nazis? Wants to downplay the Holocaust. How did college students get labeled as antisemites? MAGA wallows in racism and antisemitism.
