NO.  It WAS a Nazi salute.  Gah, modern media is infuriating.  Stop cutting these evil people slack.

Dude.  American democracy has looked like this for a long time:

NPR: "what do you think Mr. Musk meant by this gesture?"

So when I say that Elon Musk gave a Nazi salute at Trump’s inauguration on Monday, I am doing so only because I can see no other plausible interpretation of his gesture.

I watched the footage from as many angles as I could find. He stuck his arm straight out, palm down, and pointed it toward the crowd in a gesture of tribute. He put his hand on his heart first, a variant of the Adolf Hitler salute popularized in American History X — a critical film about neo-Nazism that some on the far-right have reclaimed as a celebration. And he did it twice.

If that’s what you saw — well, I’m with you. And it’s what neo-Nazis themselves saw; Nick Fuentes, the Hitler admirer who dined with Trump in 2022, described Musk’s gesture as “a straight-up sieg heil, like loving Hitler energy.”

Or this BMW, Benz, VW, Audi, Toyota , Mazda, Mitsubishi, Subaru, Datsun/Nissan, Maserati, Fiat, etc.  Volvo and Sweden were neutral in WW2 and not actively anti-Nazi.  Ford supplied Nazi Germany leading up to the war and used French PoWs in their German plants in 1940.  GM owned 80% of Opel up through 1940 and contributed to Nazi military buildup.  Stellantis is silly with former Axis support, so Chrysler, Dodge, etc are out.

Guess we should all shift to Hyundais and Kias?

Where did I say any are better? Or did I touch a nerve? I am sure some tesla owners at a biergarden will make you feel better.

Stukas got good mileage as well. Just saying.

Also, at least those companies made shit that was good for offroad military action. Imagine the 1st Cav being told to go forward in CT's? LMAO. "Sir, we had to stop, they dropped a 6 inch log across the road."

Elon already got my money four years ago.  My deal is with the bank.  Nothing I do with the vehicle now can hurt him.  In fact, the people looking to take it off your hands at this point might be active supporters of his recent behavior.  Why would you want to help them while taking a financial hit yourself all to make yourself feel better and virtue signal?

Just slap a "Fuck You, Elon" bumper sticker on the back and keep trucking.

Lots of banks made money thanks to nazis. Just saying.

Thats why I only bank with the swiss. You know your money is dirty and you don't have to pretend.

I did recommend the "Not a Stuka" sticker. @GenXer is having them printed out in a slave shop in Soweto as I write this. Where can we ship yours?

Can you provide a list of brands that currently have Nazi CEOs? I’d like to know so that I can boycott those brands.

Doesn't matter.  Time is a flat circle, right?  Whether the nazis  are in the past, present, or future, we have to show our outrage.

My purchase occurred 4 yrs ago, before Musk revealed himself as a complete ass.  It's ridiculous to expect an individual to divest themselves of a major purchase at a loss to protest new revelations of a CEO's character.  It's just as ridiculous as what I proposed above.

If I were an individual jumping to purchase the new Model Y today, boycotting might be a discussion worth having.

I think their nazis died by now. However, the CEO of Tesla is alive and kicking. We know cuz he was schooling 16 year olds in some game forum this morning while tweeting and planning a colony in Greenland. Rumor is the new amphib CT is the rage with the USMC.

So you’re saying that buying a Tesla and paying to be a FSD beta tester wasn’t a good financial investment? You told us your car was going to be a source of income.

Sigh... I know we're all just try to score internet argument cool points here, but I'll answer seriously.

I bought a new vehicle four years ago.  The vehicle is practical, easy to maintain, and as a bonus is fun to drive.  It has very low fuel and maintenance costs.  Because I was intrigued with the technology and wanted to support  autonomous vehicle development while experiencing incremental builds, I purchased FSD.  FSD also had the outside chance of someday leading to a path for passive income with the vehicle.  The passive income potential was not my primary motivation for purchasing the car or FSD.  It was an interesting possibility, but nothing I counted on.

What I did count on was having a vehicle that I could drive until the wheels fell off.  At this point, the vehicle is almost completely paid off and runs as well (better) than when I first got it, and I still enjoy driving it as much as I ever did.  This car feels like it will run forever, and I am looking forward to the next 5-6 years of driving with no car payment.  If I were to sell it now out of a sense of outrage, I would have to go out and replace the car and those 5-6 years of no car payment go poof like a fart in the wind.

I am appalled by Elon's behavior, but I'm not about to eat tens of thousands of dollars to prove that point to the internet and random people on the road.

Before I bought my first/only Japanese car, I asked my Dad, a veteran of the PTO, whether that bothered him or not.  I knew the answer would be "no," because he worked with people at Sony and developed the highest respect for Japanese.  And he wasn't the type to personalize that sort of thing in the first place.

Nevertheless, it was a Honda/Acura, and I checked to make sure they had no connection to wartime Japanese zaibatsu.  Mitsubishi is obvious.  Subaru was Nakajima.  Nissan was extant during the war, but was not heavily involved in arms manufacturing.  Toyota manufactured trucks during the war, but not much else.  Mazda's predecessors built rifles.

I had a Sunday school teacher who was a POW of the Japanese after his B-24 went down early in the war.  He had many, many tales to tale.  If anyone could have righteously held a grudge against the Japanese, it was him.  When I asked him how he felt about Japanese cars (this was the 80s when they were seemingly taking over), he said, "I really doubt anyone who beat me built those cars.  And even if they did, so what?  I'm not wasting any more of my time on hate."

The point being, I sleep easy with a Subaru.  Or a Honda, or VW, or whatever the fuck.  It's just metal. 

But he only said that AFTER he had helped eradicate the fascists.

My Genesis just got out of the shop after 4 months.

e: To be fair most of that was for a minor bumper/AC condenser repair caused by hitting a jackrabbit. But there was also a recall sprinkled in there.

Anyone who drives a pickup manufactured after 1990 needs to hand over their man card. If it doesn't have three on the tree you're doing it wrong.

When I bought my first Subaru Chrysler was making K cars (or rather, inflicting K cars) for the American public.   Buying American in 1980 instead of Japanese was more of an intelligence test than a patriotism test.
