He needs to stop beating around the bush and say it. We all know his mask is slipping but somehow a vast swath of people seem to be feigning ignorance.
He could come right out and say “Yes, I’m a nazi.” There would still be a ton of people who would say “Oh, he doesn’t mean that kind of nazi.” or “He’s just joking because he wants to piss off the liberals!”
The people aren’t going to be able to admit that they supported a fascist takeover of our government, not even when there’s soldiers goosestepping in the streets.
For almost 80 years, an important part of German culture has been to fight Nazis and wannabe Nazis.
Being German means coming from a country that didn’t even exist before 1871 and formed out of many cultures and small realms. Germany is and most of the time was a country of many different people, a country of migration and immigration and that’s what made us strong!
Fuck Nazis and fuck Musk and the right-wing parties!
A country that didn’t truly exist in its current form until 1989 when the Berlin Wall fell and two differently-governed landmasses were joined again, and unified Democratic governance began. (Counting territory, governance, name, culture as the usual delineations of what makes a nation.)
Deutschland is a Millennial. The heritage: avocado schnitzel.
What part of “German culture” are you proud of Mr Musk? Go on
If he tells us the truth, the media, especially the American media, will have lots of punditry debates and discussions about whether or not his love of Nazi Germany means he loves Nazis. And I’m sure his never actually evaluated autism (which he calls Asperger’s, a now discarded medical term but one favored by the Nazis) will be brought up.
I was diagnosed with aspergers and that’s still my diagnosis on paper just fyi. I do call it autism these days though.
Either way it’s cool that all of us autistic folks can get away with anything we want these days I guess. Fucking ableists.
Yeah, it’s a bullshit excuse in every way. And there’s just no evidence that he has ever been diagnosed. He’s just declared it, and probably because he thinks it’s a “get out of asshole free” card, which it is not. I have yet to meet a high-functioning autistic person who has trouble with basic concepts of right and wrong. Maybe they make mistakes, but when you say, “that’s rude” or whatever, they generally acknowledge it and apologize.
My family has quite a few autistic people in it, including my daughter. None of them would ever, ever “accidentally” do a Nazi salute when they were excited.
We’re just letting him do this, so why would he ever stop?
Why are you even asking? Is it because you voted for Trump, or because you feel helpless?
