The media is going say some wack shit like "he appears" or "does strange salute" or some other bullshit. Don't let them twist the image.
"The press is so powerful in its image-making role, it can make the criminal look like he's a the victim and make the victim look like he's the criminal. This is the press, an irresponsible press. It will make the criminal look like he's the victim and make the victim look like he's the criminal. If you aren't careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed and loving the people who are doing the oppressing." - Malcolm X
elon musk did a roman salute, not hitler salute 🤓
Exactly that type of thing they are going to say.
I've already heard that lol. How do they find a way to twist things so fast?
To be fair that one is a classic, I’ve seen it multiple times
Ah okay, didn't know that one.
i mean the roman salute excuse is very old
School children in the US in the 30s
Every reply to every TikTok I've seen has said this

I expected it to be a snapshot of him waving but wow yeah that's a straight up Nazi salute all right
It was an honest mistake, could have happened to anybody. I hate it when I accidentally do the hitler salute twice in a row
