Elon Musk’s Controversial Salutes at Trump Rally Spark Outrage
The gesture that sparked controversy
Elon Musk raised eyebrows and sparked outrage with what appeared to be Nazi salutes at a rally following Donald Trump’s inauguration in Washington, D.C. The billionaire raised his arm with his fingers in a salute similar to those used by the Nazis in the 1930s and 1940s.
Social media exploded
The online reaction to Musk’s salutes was one of shock, with many expressing discomfort and disbelief. Some referred to the gesture as a “Roman salute,” but since the 1940s, it has been associated with the Nazis. Mainstream media seemed hesitant to call it out as a clear reference to Nazism, sparking further debate and controversy.
Online extremists celebrated Musk’s salutes, while others defended him by claiming it was not a Nazi salute. The controversy continues to unfold, with calls for clarification and responses from Musk’s companies, Tesla and SpaceX. The incident has left many questioning the implications and future actions of one of the world’s richest individuals.
