He has gotten away with it, and will get away with it. What, you think investors will choose principals over money?

The purpose of doing a Nazi salute so publicly, in the context of “saving civilization,” does the purpose of a dog whistle but with the subtlety of an air horn. It’s to send out acknowledgment to Nazis, a gesture of solidarity, that he’s on their side and wants their support/approval. You would think this would be sabotaging the system if Naziism was in fact against their ideals and was bad optics. Nowadays the only excuse they need to be a Nazi is to “trigger the libs” so you’d be safe to say that nothing will come of this, people will shake their heads and wag their fingers but will still do business with him because money. So he’s cashing in, he knows probably better than anyone that the Nazis have, in fact, successfully taken over the American government. Well done, Americans.

I mean they waged a bloody revolution against Kings, and inequality has increased a thousand-fold since, so wtf are we doing?

Give that line to a holocaust survivor and see what they say.

It’s good that he’s not taking his ESL for granite.

Guess not. Maybe people other than your so called “tankies” can see the writing on the walls.

By my metrics the majority of people are fascists, and it’s a terrifying world to live in. When I think about that £36 trillion I’m reminded of those old legends about things like a “Well of Souls” and ugly beasts hoarding and guarding food from the villages. It’s almost like these types of people have cautionary tales about them for a reason, and that we’ve been here before. Humans have always had one common monster - inhumans. Money is the religious monarchy of our day, we wonder how people could believe in witches yet people think food, science, and trade comes from money. “How can the world work without God Money?” is the dogma of our times.

Or when you don’t realize that it already is directly affecting you because “They pay me well enough to keep me in a comfy box, I don’t have time to do anything or read or risk losing my job” while the ones they love are picked off one by one. Then when they come out the other side they go “How did all this happen? It was equally the fault of the radicals on both sides.” Thus the unenlightened centrist cycle will continue.

Musk already did a Nazi salute to a cheering crowd a couple days ago, check back on what exactly?

Anyone who knows anything about the Native Americans, the Indigenous Critique, and their ideas of freedom’s profound influence on the European Enlightenment, should boil with hatred at what European Americans did to them.

Why point it out? In admiration?

Ok so it’s something tankies say, why is that a problem? If they said the sky was blue would you say everyone who thinks the sky is blue is a tankie?

EDIT - Just to add, you know who else reacted negatively to communists? You know why the Nazis targetted jews? Or is the irony of using “tankie” as a pejorative and being a fascist lost on you?

That was before WW2, no less. Funny how after all that happened, people saw that and went, “Yeah that was a good idea.”

I call the people who hold accounts in the £36 TRILLION in offshore tax havens and all those who are okay with it “fascists.”

No, I don’t talk to tankies I don’t think. I genuinely don’t understand why you’d have this reaction to a description of what’s happening.

Just looked up what a “tanky” was, got mixed results, looks like classic red scare communism-phobia to me, lots of people butthurt that Russia beat the Nazis and freed the concentration camps with violence as if that was a mistake. Did it happen some other way then? And all that stuff about Russia and Stalingrad and Berlin is just tankie propaganda? Please.

I am, they’re fascists, whatever colour shirt they’re wearing. And hard disagree that our modern problems can’t be described by old ones, what an ahistorical take.

Or Andrew Jackson.

That’s just rich people behavior.
