What if an adult flipped you off but then explained it was just a hurt finger. I'd guess the explanation would start with an apology.
I want to give the benefit of the doubt to co-president Musk…

I'd probably think he was flipping me off...until the moment I realized that his finger was just hurt. At that time, I'd have what Steven Covey would call a paradigm shift.
And that seems kind of analogous to this situation. Again, even I thought he was doing a Nazi salute at first. Read my first response on this thread. I assumed he was trolling.
But I had only seen the truncated clip. And I think that's what most people had seen. Maybe that's still all they have seen. As soon as I saw the clip in context, it instantly created a different context which changed the meaning.
Imagine there’s some guy waiting for her to come home. Hair on his neck stands up when he hears the keys. Like knight’s wife after a shitty game
Also, I know what I wouldn't do after I figured out that he had a hurt finger and wasn't actually flipping me off...
...I wouldn't keep stomping my feet insisting that he really was flipping me off and was just making up the hurt finger thing as an excuse to keep me from punching him.
This whole thing about horror at the sound of jingling keys sounds like some PTSD from your own personal experience. Are you feeling OK today?
It’s a waste of time. Musk obviously carefully planned this because he’s either a despicable troll or an actual goose stepping Nazi.
Forget the context or his actual words in the moment. He carefully planned the whole thing.
They haven’t learned anything. They spent 8 years crying about racism around every corner and under every stone and all it got them was another Trump presidency, in large part because of his massive gains among minorities of all kinds.
You’d think they’d learn.
It's the ex husband "thousand yard stare". That is when you know, he's been in the bush too long.
Elon Musk backs Germany's far-right party ahead of election
“Only the AfD can save Germany,” the tech billionaire wrote on X.www.nbcnews.com
Verified pro-Nazi X accounts flourish under Elon Musk
An NBC News review identified 150 verified "Premium" accounts that have posted or amplified pro-Nazi content.
Ford and Musk. They Made Cars. They Backed Fascists.
Each age’s premier industrialist has had appalling politics.prospect.org
Any other CEO would have been fired for what Elon Musk just said | CNN Business
Part of the deal with being CEO is that you get a big paycheck in exchange for being the public face of a company. For most people, at most companies, that means, at minimum, trying not to make an ass of yourself in public.amp.cnn.com
So now the left pretends to care about the feelings of the Jews? Come on.
Hey, if all the Hamas-loving sympathizers want to see Nazi salutes maybe they should look at all the pictures of Hamas terrorists lined up, giving a coordinated Nazi salute.
But Trump has now frightened these clowns half out of their minds twice, thus leaving empty voids.
Now do the one of Taylor Swift and see how quickly CNN and PBS rush to destroy her and her career. At least they’d be doing something valuable for us.
Put these cretins on a plane and drop them in Gaza.
This could get interesting.
Trump announced a deal (it’s been in the works for a while, even if he casts it as something he put together) for a $500B investment in AI infrastructure.
The partners include SoftBank, Oracle…..and OpenAI.
Elon Musk has no bigger nemesis in tech than OpenAI’s Sam Altman. In fact, Musk has been down-talking the deal…saying they only have $10B committed to it.
And, of course, those hoping for a falling out between Trump and Musk (and there are a lot of them out there) are touting this.

The Nazi party is huge. Tim Walz and Taylor Swift must be members as well, given the pictures of them. They even did it better.
Superman Under Fire After Hundreds Of Images Surface Of Him Giving Nazi Salute
METROPOLIS — The hero once thought of by many as the defender of truth, justice, and the American way found himself in a public relations nightmare this week, as Superman came under fire after hundreds of images surfaced of him allegedly giving a Nazi salute.
babylonbee.com
Who knew Superman was a Nazi, (I mean outside of O-h-i-o dude)...???
Shocking!
I've even a little concerned about my own abbreviated hello/goodbye pseudo-wave move (forearm parallel to my chest, in the vertical, with hand facing forward)... Having recently watched "Patton" again I noticed the Wehrmacht officers featured frequently used that move in lieu of the full straight arm salute...
Don't want anyone trying to ruin my life for a half wave that I didn't even realize was controversial...! 🙉
Guess I'll have to lay low and start avoiding the paparazzi again... 😳🙄😉

Don't bet on that
The CIA's sabotage of the gas pipeline was literally an act of war upon Germany. The political multi-party coalitions are in tatters. Germany is nearly ungovernable.
The revenge upon Germany continues.

You state that as if it's a fact, when it isn't. It's nearly certain that Ukraine sabotaged the pipeline. Yes, they had the capability and the motivation.
NO ONE was taking "revenge upon Germany." That's stupid talk.
Mas. I’ve heard a lot of scary references to the “Afd”.
I’ve done some research into them although not a lot. What exactly is supposedly so scary?
They seem anti-immigration, anti-EU, and anti-the green energy agenda.
Is that enough to qualify as extremist in Europe?
Funny how Musk hired Marko Elez, and tasked him with getting into the government payments system. The same Marko known for these Tweets:
Story has it Elez gained admin access before being cut off by the judge yesterday. Anyone with admin access could plant virtually anything into a server. So one would want a thorough computer system search if one has reason not to trust the admin.
- "You could not pay me to marry outside of my ethnicity."
- "Normalize Indian hate."
- "Just for the record, I was racist before it was cool."
- "I would not mind at all if Gaza and Israel were both wiped off the face of the Earth."

Who cares?
If Marko Elez or Marco Polo can help drain the pernicious global swamp, I don't give a **** who he does or doesn't like.
Try and find something meaningful to whinge about for a change.
If you did any research at all, you know how fractured the prevailing coalitions have become. As usual, the US bully-in-a-china-shop foreign policy has failed miserably, and the Alternative for Germany is a more populist-oriented group.
I refer you to Eugyppius: The Plague Chronicle, on Substack.
I know, I could make up a story about the US blowing up a pipeline. Fiction is always something to whine about.
Better rethink your 'position' on this.
What's your preferred tale?
Russia;
cost itself $Billions of petroleum revenues and the costs of rebuilding?
Ukraine;
6 frog men in a rented wooden sailing ship did it ,..
Germany;
Cause they love freezing in the dark?
You are truly stupid.
