He probably deserves his own thread at this point, discuss accordingly

It's hilarious to watch PB and BJ twist themselves into a pretzel. There's nothing wrong with saying, "I can see how his gesture could be conflated with a Nazi salute, but that's not what he was doing," and move on.

I suppose it's better for PB to go on about throwing his heart out than it is to assert that making $10 billion in three days off the back of his gullible supporters was Trump putting people over money.

Yeah I know. Explaining logic to people is tiresome. But there's no twisting into pretzels required.

Logic is a foreign concept to some people though, as we see here.


Oh **** I got so owned by logic that I may never recover

You'll be alright. Just treat it as a learning experience.

But can you tell me what you saw in the 3 second clip I posted multiple times?

A man telling you his heart goes out to you and doing a gesture from his heart to you? If you freeze frame it without the heart business and ignore what he said it's possible to conflate it with a nazi salute, but then when you put your thinking cap on for 2 seconds you realize that OF COURSE he is not intending to do that.

How is this a controversy.

How about you strip away all your projected intent and tell me if the motion he made does or doesn’t resemble a Nazi salute.

Then maybe we can work through your absolutely ridiculous assertion that he’s just too autistic to understand the social implications of his actions

Why on earth is this so important to you? So bizarre.

does or doesn't your avatar resemble a Nazi salute?

are you just autistic or a Nazi?



by housenuts k

He
1. Amplified far right voices and suppressed leftist voices
2. Retweeted and gave credence to far right rhetoric including eugenics
3. Called his trans child dead
4. Called Nigel farage too progressive and is promoting the UK skinhead party
5. Sat down with a far right German leader to spread Misinformation about Hitlers political leanings
6. And now gave a blatant Nazi salute on MLK day at our presidential inauguration

And this is just the last 2-3 months.

But again, I can’t express enough how absolutely ignorant you are on everything you talk about and how you literally never internalize corrections which actively makes you the dumbest person imaginable

Hope that helps

Well, first off, I’m obsessing over it because of my Asperger’s but second off it’s completely ****ing bizarre that every single one of yall refuses to just say

“Wow that sure does look like a Nazi salute. I don’t like that one bit”

Instead of carrying water for the richest man in the world like he’s some toddler who’s incapable of controlling his own actions

You keep your Nazi salute avatar up and I'll keep being a ******. *handshake emoji*

Logic is a foreign concept to some people though, as we see here.

You mean like explaining the logic that copying and pasting a shopping cart and posting it here as proof you bought something isn't really proof you bought something? Like that logic?

But I don't really have an issue with you two asserting that it looks nothing like a Nazi salute because if this happened with Biden a year ago, y'all would be saying it's 100% a Nazi salute and the diehard left would be saying what you're saying, so I just sit back and laugh. Oh, and don't feel it necessary to say, "No I wouldn't if Biden had done it the same way;" that tactic is boring.

You keep asking people to say this, and im pretty sure people have.

Yes, it could be interpreted way. Clearly it has been. Lots of things look like Nazi salutes.

So we've done what you ask. But that's not what you want.

Not only do you want people to say it could look that way, you also want them to say it is specifically that and was intended.

Stop being disingenuous. But keep your avatar please, it's objectively hilarious.


idk why he would do a salute like that bit it was cringe. has he made a statement? its even more dumb that if he hasn't

Even if it looks like a Nazi salute....who cares (besides you)? And even if it does look like a Nazi salute, why would anyone say "I don't like that one bit" if it isn't an ACTUAL Nazi salute? Spoiler alert: it isn't a Nazi salute.

Life is too short, let it go.

Millions and millions of people care.

And you should too. Its just our country. But hey, Trump signed a piece of paper and now Trans people don't exist so I'm sure hes cooking in your book. Life isn't too short to persecute the trannies

Its clear I just care about different things than the Republicans that post here and I'm perfectly fine with that because 95% of yall seem like truly awful people

It's a controversy because in 2025, a big portion of so many peoples income is derived off of funneling clicks which often necessitates escalating and provoking things to the max - it's just a big part of how our economy functions and it certainly leads to a shitstorm of problems.

It looked just like a nazi salute, so does all the other famous people who unfortunately stuck their arm up in similar fashion at literally one point in their recorded lives.

I mean, your avatar would be getting heat if it was from a controversial person on stage with literally millions of peons looking to profit off of it in whatever way they could.

All these other examples of famous people just unfortunately doing a Sig Heil. Give me two. Two videos of two famous people giving a full blown sig heil. Not a picture of their arm in an awkward postion. A video of them unfortunately throwing out a Nazi salute

Do you know why I know you can't produce this? Because I'm not ****ing ******ed


My avatar is a child pointing straight out to his side. You'll have to troll better than that

Here is a chart to help with all your confusions:


But the gaslight brigade coming out in full force is definitely noted. I appreciate it

of course when you have a range this big there's going to be lots of hand movements that look like nazi salutes.
