      No we all boycott Tesla until there’s a 50% drop in sales and hope the shareholders and board force him out.

    […] he made a gesture that drew online comparisons to a Nazi salute […]

    Why is the popular media so scared to call a Nazi a Nazi? He did a Nazi salute. It wasn’t just a gesture that drew comparisons from the internet. It was a Nazi salute, clearly done with intent.

      South African socialized under the Apartheid, sharing pseudoscientific racist memes for years, has eugenics and impregnation fetish, supports AfD and states they are the future of Germany and western civilization, renames himself Kekius Maximus, supports trump and does the salute towards the crowd right after saying that the “future of our civilization is [being] secure[d]” and then does it one more time facing der Führer. Whoever isn’t calling this out as a nazi salute is a nazi normalizer.

      CBS has litterally fired someone for “personal reasons” after she criticized Musk’s Nazi salute on her Instagram. NBC is close to having me consider them a Nazi sympathizer; maybe they are terrified of defamation lawsuits enough to not say the truth out loud.

      This is what they always do. They’re powerless in the face of the actual problem – the richest fucker on Earth being a straight up Nazi – so instead they try to invent another set of circumstances that make the threat seemingly less threatening.

      It’s not 100% verifiable and nobody wants to get a defemation lawsuit. (And perhaps they don’t want to piss of a guy that’s “friends” with the president)

    “It’s good to be proud of German culture, German values, and not to lose that in some sort of multiculturalism that dilutes everything,” Musk said.

    Non-German, in attempt to change Germany, warns Germans of non-Germans changing Germany

      That’s probably why, the richest man in the world who could easily hop on a private jet to Germany as easy as it is for me or you to walk down the street, only did a “video appearance”

      Stop buying his shitty cars. If his Tesla stock tanks the rest of his empire will crumble.

      The US won’t let Space X go under. They will nationalize it and let current management run it. But the rest of his business ventures will go under without Tesla propping them up.

        At this point I’m convinced that his obsession with X is that it’s the closest letter to the swastika. Just imagine: Space Swastika. Model Swastika. Swastika dot com. etc.

    Leon Hitler can go straight to hell. The photos from 1945 Germany are enough to tell me my German forefathers fucked it all up.
