As someone who once championed Donald Trump and Elon Musk (they're a duo who are quite inseparable at this point), I must say that the antics of Elon Musk in particular is something else. I dare say that he has unfortunately become a net negative, and while the people who goes to great lengths to sabotage Tesla and the like are indeed very much in the wrong, it should be noted that Elon Musk has needlessly become an unnecessary antagonistic figure to the political left.
As much as Elon Musk's infamous salute may be overplayed by his adversaries, the fact that he did the salute in the first place is concerning.
I still fully support agendas such as the Department of Government Efficiency, but at the end of the day, Elon Musk seems to have always been a loose canon and a wildly egotistical fellow (as Jeremy Clarkson says, his "beef" with Elon Musk started with Clarkson's review of the Tesla back in 2008).
I did not know of him suing Jeremy Clarkson because of his review, but the very act of doing so is quite alarming.
Tesla was just starting out and Jeremy Clarkson had a huge reach with Top Gears. A legal response would have followed.
Except he did not. he did nothing of the sort. Not remotely, not by any stretch of the imagination did Musk make a "Nazi salute".
So, stop already.
Is This A Nazi Salute Too? there's thousands of images of this for Obama, Hillary, Pelosi & etc. Everyone who's ever been famous has made this position in public before.
