Sanders comes off as much less senile than either Sleepy Joe or Donnie Dementia.

It would be smarter for Musk to focus on returning more benefits to Americans and build up his stock and be more liked, rather than worry about "acquiring more money". I don't see why this would be the main motivator for him at this stage of the game for him like this, to be picking over pension checks and trying to get more redundant hundreds of billions. Someone like him should be more worried about his long-term image at this point and not ultimately being lynched if this goes south, like what happened to Louis XVI.... but like I said, who knows.

Musk doesn't care about his image. Have you read his posts on twitter? He's unafraid to be a nazi or nazi-adjacent.

I don't think that means he doesn't care. I think he cares a lot. I think he's spending possibly more than any person that ever lived to make sure people have an opinion on him. But I agree he's unafraid to be seen as a nazi. That's just a means to an end.

He was not doing a Nazi salute, he was doing a "my heart goes out to you" kind of thing, which he clearly prefaced.

The standards on this are so flimsy that anyone hailing a taxi cab could also be interpreted as doing a Nazi salute, or just anyone putting their arm in the air for any reason... that's how desperate the big dishonest woke system is to try and get what they want just using the laziest and cheapest possible Nazi smears and thinking this will work.

Even if this is the case, actual Nazis with power haven't even been a thing for nearly 100 years in living memory. I'm not surprised being mad about Elon Musk and trying to link him with cheap smears to Nazis for an awkward salute has little resonance, as if you are a young man born 4 or 5 generations after 1945 and are completely struggling with no prospects in this woke controlled society, then what the heck do you care when they constantly try and frighten you about "Nazis" ? This is now totally irrelevant for most people that are very far removed from living this.

Of course, everyone knows the my heart goes out to you salute which 100% isn't just the worst excuse to pretend what these guys are doing isn't a Nazi salute. Only a fool would insist these guys are doing "nazi salutes" (whatever the f**k that is).

The woke media is just trying to cancel all of our great heroes who send their hearts out to us.

To be fair I think Musk was just hailing a taxi before he jumped in and said: "Take me to that campaign event for a far-right German political party!"

^ And again it's unconstitutional to ban the gathering of a religious congregation, regardless of how much you happen to temporarily agree on banning its meeting because of the demands of fashionable politics or the fake virus you've been frightened over by CNN.

The religious congregation has to be allowed to meet, absolutely regardless of how much it's going to allow a virus to spread... same for a political assembly, otherwise wannabe political dictators could use such excuses to shut down Democracy indefinitely and maintain a one-party state.

And if you seriously think the vaccine was "sound policy"... that's just "Strike Three, you're out ! !"... (LOL)... absolutely hilarious that Fauci got included in all of Biden's brain-dead pre-emptive pardons (also including Biden's own son), especially if Fauci "did nothing wrong."

I've seen a ton of evidence that all these stupid Town Hall protests are fully coordinated to shout down all the Republican congressmen and are being organized by the groups like MoveOn and Indivisible to get the rabid Democratic partisans there to shout and do the usual tired Alinskyite tactics. On this front, there's nothing to see and everyone's been seeing through this trash since the early 2010s and is not falling for it. They're way too coordinated and scripted and all happening against the same level of politicians to not be such. As of now, I'm in full agreement with what Musk and DOGE are doing, and I don't think there's any kind of significant defection from MAGA back to ridiculous woke-Liberals within the middle of the American public as of yet.

FAKE VIRUS??? Are you serious? There was nothing fake about the deaths it caused.
There was no end to democracy for health reasons during Covid. My own congregation, and most others as well, simply went on line with Sunday worship. Do you happen to believe Trump is threatening democracy by calling certain protests illegal? Because that would qualify.
Just because you disagree with the protests hardly means they're not organic and legitimate.
Mind if I ask, are you even on the spectrum?

What has he been posting ? If there's any specific examples we can discuss these and decide if they truly rise to the bar of being "Nazi" or not.

Pretty much though anything a conservative says that even slightly displeases a liberal, these days, is enough to get qualified as a card-carrying member of the National Socialist party of Allemange. It's not like the bar is very high, before all this stuff starts getting thrown around.

Honestly, I think all this stuff like getting mad over Elon's awkward salute is quite an insult to what people actually went through under actual Nazis in the 40s and such, with this kind of lazy comparison and liberals getting upset about this, for power in modern times. If any "Nazi" starts doing anything that's actual illegal, I'm all for actually going after them and all this, but this is stupid and utterly lazy politics, at present.

I would say though, with Elon being the wealthiest man in the world, his party just winning the popular vote, he has the ear of the President, etc.... He's going to get quite a bit of what he wants and his priorities, regardless of the wishes of global liberals. If he's posting conservative things on various topics and has these kinds of aims, like it or not for anyone who doesn't like all this, it may well be "tough titty".

It's interesting how the Trumpists ignore what their eyes tell them and just repeat the party line that it was an awkward gesture and not what we all saw with our own eyes.

It's easily one of the most obvious cases of brainwashing in recent history, but hey, I guess gaslighting pwns the libs or something.

You know what they say:

If the "Trumpists" are also such a cult, it's funny that also none of the Trumpists wanted to take the vaccine and most refused to take the vaccine, even though Trump was all for the vaccine and "Operation Warp Speed". It's the only "Cult" I've ever seen that literally does the exact opposite of what the Leader orders.

As deluded as wokes and liberals are though, this gives me a lot of hope though that they will keep MAGA and such in power for a very long time and will continue to have losses like this.

Yes, and you've made your hatred of reasonable people into your entire personalities but lack the capability for self-reflection that would eventually lead to correcting yourselves and your behaviours.

No shame. No common sense. No interest in facts or expertise. It's nothing more than self-destructive cult that's almost entirely fuelled by cruelty towards others.

But, you do admit something important. The MAGA cult doesn't care that Elon did a Nazi salute, but they're still going to lie and pretend he didn't because they'd rather align themselves with seek kylers than have to take a morally responsible stand that "wokes" (aka, people who aren't part of the cult) agree with.

Like, it wouldn't be that hard to say oh, that's not a good look but we still support Elon for reasons but instead you guys insist on looking ridiculous by denying reality no matter how undeniable that reality might be.

So hate by mere association.
