Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu issued a message of support Thursday for Elon Musk after the world’s richest man was accused of making a Nazi salute.
Musk “is being falsely smeared,” Netanyahu wrote on X, the social media platform owned by Musk. “Elon is a great friend of Israel. He visited Israel after the October 7 massacre… [and] has since repeatedly and forcefully supported Israel’s right to defend itself against genocidal terrorists and regimes who seek to annihilate the one and only Jewish state.”
Musk later thanked Netanyahu.
Calls everything antisemitism as a cudgel to defend themselves and their genocide
*sees a literal Nazi
Nah, not him, he’s cool
If the prime minister of Israel considers him a great friend… that certainly seals the deal for me. He doesn’t hate jews, therefore cant be a nazi.
Clown world
So… nazi salute in now welcome in israel?
🤨
Billionaires are always welcome, I guess Elon could shit in his mouth and he’d say “Thank you may I please have another?”
Nazi defends other Nazi. More at 11.
Just to make sure I’m not missing a joke or something, you are declaring the, I can’t believe I am writing this, Prime Minister of Israel of being a nazi?
I am drunk and hopefully missing something and apologies if I am.
Yes. That’s exactly what I’m saying. You understood perfectly.
Okay… Because I’m morbidly curious I guess, uhhh, what exactlt do you think nazis are most famous for? Like if you had to guess say one or two policies (hint, they might have affected gas prices?)
Are you aware that Nazis targeted more than just Jewish people? They rounded up and killed gay people, Romanis, Slavs, and anyone else who wasn’t part of their chosen in-group.
So to answer your question: Nazis are most famous for rounding up and killing millions of people whom the Nazis felt were subhuman. They were famous for working to create an ethno-state.
They were also famously fascist, had no elections, had a strong security system to squash internal dissent and brooked no protest, none of which apply to Israel.
I get the appeal of labelling things you oppose as nazis but you can’t just pick and choose what aspects fit and then apply the term nazi, it just makes us look dumb.
When someone gets banned from a site and complains that site is run by nazis, if we’re using your standard of picking and choosing then that person is as correct as you are as the site is allowing no dissent and removing those who do. But in reality (I pray) we both look at that person and think less of their complaint because of the silliness of their comparison.
