    By making these comparisons you're downplaying what the real Nazis actually did. And that's downright reprehensible.
    The NSDAP was founded in 1920, came to power in '33 and started the war in '39. You think they suddenly started becoming nazis in '39?

    Also a big part of the partymembers were nonviolent burocrats and businessmen who ignored the crimes happening, while absolutely knowing what happened to their neighbors, former businesspartners or owners of shops/houses/art or whatever they had an eye on before.

    People would denounce others for their own profit without being "killers" themselves.

    “Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past”-Jean-Paul Sartre

    Also most simply had no idea it was happening. US soldiers discovered concentration camps without knowing they even existed. When they revealed what they found most of Germany was shocked and unaware.

    That was during a time when something of that nature could be concealed though. No one had cameras in their pockets, filming of any kind was rare. So today it would be much harder to pull off and would require more public approval. Which is exactly what I think Elon was trying gauge with his salute. He is gauging the public reaction.

    So what would you say are the chances of Elon Musk becoming Hitler in the next 10-15 years and going on a mass genocide spree?

    Percentage wise...?

    See how absurd youre being?

    Also vids of Musk's parents are going around, Elon's mother did in fact come from a Nazi family, and Elon grew up in a very racist setting. His family was in favor of apartheid in South Africa.

    Fascism has infiltrated the US. How far Musk can take it? I think he is gauging that right now. His first step was gaining social media and the puplic's approval as a political savior. Now he is controlling Trump. And he will probably take it as far as he possibly can.
    Take off the tin foil hat lil dude. You sound schizo like some Qanon nutjob.

    Elon could be the next Mussolini. He doesn't have to become Hitler, there is only one Hitler. But if he has similar intentions? Obviously is really bad. I mean you're going to brush off him being fascist because it isn't feasible to be Hitler?

    Just because Mount Everest exists, doesn't mean there aren't other mountains.

    And if there were something similar to Hitler today? Obviously it would look very different than what happened during WW2.

    I dunno wtf he was doing, and he was signalling something. I don't know what it meant, but it was something. He is def ****ing weird. I don't like his speech or his sign, what little I saw. They need to keep him away from mics.

    His wealth isn't that sort of wealth, imo. He is the richest guy in the world, but like Mark or Jeff, he would lose a great portion of it if he started doing wild shit.

    That's why it has changed so drastically. People with liquid billz are more dangerous. I don't think Elon is that guy. He probably wants to be that guy w/ DARK MAGA and all, but he's not. He's not harmless, but he's not Hitler. Let's see what happens haha.

    because it doesn't contextually make sense and why did he swing his arm like he did if he was doing a nazi salute?

    He definitely had a lot of energy in it. He was signaling his power or something, maybe some other shit, but it doesn't make sense as a Nazi salute in any way imo. Would love to hear the argument just like I'd love to hear what people think it signifies, as I have asked.

    If it's not a nazi salute surely you wouldn't be scared to do it in public?
