…Musk used an arm gesture, twice, that resembled the Roman salute adopted by the Nazis.
Huffington Post also too fucking jellospined to actually say that the fuckwit did indeed throw the Nazi salute. Twice.

"In this country, we inspired the Nazis"
Fixed it.
Yeah AOC is wrong here, more than half of people voted for a clear nazi sympathizer. If we hated nazis so much we wouldn’t have done that.
repeated words lead to ideas which lead to changed thought processes. we have witnessed this with the rapidity of an intravenous injection since 2016.
we cannot hope to take control of the zeitgeist (yeah, I went there) without pushing back hard on words and ideas. "america hates nazis - do you love nazis?!". now go out and repeat it ad nauseam. I am doing it.
It's not like the Nazis already had this exact same idea. Oh wait. They did.

If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.
Also, Operation Paperclip. A good chunk of post-war US prosperity was built on the work of Nazis who escaped justice and moved there.
I guess
"In this country a minority of us hate Nazis, unless the voting machines were rigged, but that might be a post-truth distraction to allow more and more fascist things to sneak through unchecked or distracted from or worn down by".
was too long.
Disappointed she didn't really rip off his arm. Stupid misleading headline.
Do we, though? Looking at the big Cheeto in office would suggest otherwise
Media continues to show its true face with this measly mouthed concern trolling. If you never stand for anything then you stand for everything wrong in the world to remain the same.
Unfortunately we need more people like AOC to allow the media to quote the correct views without taking a stand themselves. I don't know if that formula is ever goi g to benefit us though since Fox can go out and spread misinformation every day and never get sued for more than they earned doing it. Media companies like wapo don't need to make money because they're propaganda vessels for their owners, it's hard to combat bullhorns of bullshit coming from the effectively immune.
"We" don't, "We" constantly elect literally Nazis into American political offices at every level.
