    This would have interesting implications if he came to Germany again. Stating the Holocaust did not happen (and claims similar to that like his) counts as a felony here.

    What happened, was he out of the news cycle for 10 seconds and his disgustingly insecure self needed a little attention like the toddler he is?

      More likely he feels emboldened. After the whole saluting thing, so many jumped to his defense that he most likely feels that he doesn’t need to hide it as much anymore.

    Even if you want to play Musk’s little “technically correct” game (and you probably don’t) it wasn’t public sector workers that ran the death camps and slaughtered villagers, it was the military. The military that was, you know, under Hitler’s direct command.

      And it was AFTER they purged the civil service of the Weimar Republic, which is exactly what this terrorist is doing right now.

    If it walks like a Nazi, talks like a Nazi, and heils like a Nazi, it’s a Nazi.

    Sure, Hitler only gave the orders to exterminate millions. That’s totally different…

    “I didn’t shoot that guy, I ‘only’ pulled the trigger! The hammer, firing pin, primer, gunpowder, and bullet all acted on their own.”

        Dear early 2014,

        Next year, David Bowie will be diagnosed with liver cancer. A year and a half later, it will kill him. It is absolutely imperative that it be found and treated earlier than that, when it hasn’t metastasized yet. Get him diagnosed and treated now. The future of the planet depends on it.

        Also, apropos of nothing in particular, here is a bunch of evidence that Donald Trump, the reality show guy who posted all that racist “birther” crap about President Obama, is a tax cheat and a scam artist, and works for Vladimir Putin. Get the IRS on his ass.

        Good luck, and may your timeline work out better than ours has.

    If people have been telling you he wants to be a fascist dictator, but you aren’t quite sure you believe it, how does this not set off alarm bells?

        They’re still in denial and complaining about crazy lefties who are after Elon, poor guy!

      It was just an awkward hand gesture. But you libruls kept calling him Nazi and playing Jedi mind tricks so he decided to be one. THIS IS THE LIBRULS FAULT, THEY MADE HIM A NAZI! THIS IS THE LIBRULS AGENDA!

      Obvious sarcasm. I sell salt by the truck load.

      They are all just waving away flies. Hitler and Nazis had huge problems with flies, So Hitler developed the perfect way to wave away flies, and since Musk has the same problem because he stinks so much, he has adopted the very efficient German way to wave away flies.

      It’s all perfectly innocent, and it makes sense so long you don’t think about it.

    Hey, i also think that Elon is a fascist but did anyone read the tweet? It also implied that Stalin and Mao didnt kill Millions.

    It said: “Hitler, Stalin and Mao did not kill millions. Their Public Service Agents did.”

        Debateable, the Red Fascism theory is kinda wonky.

        I am against the idea that people who adhere to my preferred mode of production (socialism) can’t be genocidal or bad.

          I actually looked up the definition of “fascism” in order to check before I posted. Regardless of any politics, they were fascists.

    Good One, Muskrat!

    Double down on the nazi rhetoric. It’s been working great for your businesses, hasn’t it?

    What a dumb, pathetic little fucker.
