Hello I still don’t believe that Elon Musk performed the Hitler salute. And that’s how I commented on it. And? What can we conclude from this? That I have sympathy for Musk? That I don’t think he’s right-wing extremist? My recommendation to corresponding users: Differentiate instead of insulting me, put me in a right-wing corner and say to me “get lost” . There is talk of “presumed” Hitler salute at RBB (german TV Channel), for example. Presumed does not mean fact. At r/de, I can no longer comment. To make a fresh start, I had created a new, another account. Of course, it was naïve. The account has been permanently blocked. I’m now at feddit. This is also far less commercial (or at all?) Best regards

      A far-right extremist is someone who holds anti-democratic, authoritarian, and often nationalist ideologies. Far-right extremism includes various movements, such as ethnic nationalism, racism, antisemitism, and the rejection of liberal democracy.

      A Nazi (National Socialist) is someone who explicitly adheres to the ideology of the NSDAP (National Socialist German Workers’ Party) as it existed in the Third Reich. This includes the cult of leadership, racial doctrines, antisemitism, and the idea of a totalitarian state.

      While all Nazis are far-right extremists, not every far-right extremist is necessarily a Nazi. Some far-right extremists follow other ideologies, such as neo-fascism, ethnic nationalism, or identitarian movements, which share similar ideas but do not explicitly identify as Nazis.

        He supports right wing ideology and did a Nazi salute, twice. What more do you want? Hitler was not the spitting image of an Aryan. Does that mean he wasn’t a real Nazi?

          Apparently, you have to have a purity test to be a Nazi, otherwise he’s caught in a Larry David situation.

          This guy is obviously troll-baiting, but it’s kind of a funny one.

    As far as I’m concerned, Musk is a Nazi. If it makes you happy. After all, rechts ist rechts. Whether right-wing extremist or Nazi.
