    Since when does being right-wing make you a Nazi?

    Nazi’s are far-right to the extreme, Musk and Trump are Right-Wing. Nothing more. Disagreeing with them doesn’t make them Nazi’s and calling them Nazi’s actually says more about that persons intolerance than they think it does.

      We all saw the nazi salute, then we saw him do it a second time just to drive the point home.

        I’ve seen the video of him WAVING but I haven’t seen him do it a second time.

            Video I’ve seen has been paused just at the right (or wrong) time to suit the narrative. He was waving at the inauguration. I don’t know about another time.

            But to my knowledge he hasn’t invaded Poland or started gassing Jews so I think the Nazi label is a tad unfair.

                I’m genuinely so excited to have actually encountered one in the wild. That is, someone that is trying to claim that Elon didn’t sieg heil multiple times. Fascinating, they said people would but I just didn’t believe them

                  I’ve seen too many of that ilk. Then again, I peruse the YouTube comments, so it’s pretty my own fault.

                His standard for being labeled a Nazi is one Hitler fails prior to 1939. They might as well have a sign with bold print proclaiming, “I’m not to be taken seriously.”

              He very clearly salutes, turns around, and salutes again. Twice in a row, enthusiastically and perfectly executed.

              If you haven’t seen this, you didn’t watch the inauguration.

                  Then you probably shouldn’t waste so much of other people’s time by claiming something didn’t happen if you haven’t even bothered to fucking check.

                    Like I’ve said. The first one was definitely a WAVE. But as that doesn’t suit the anti-right narrative then I’ll let you keep believing you’re right.

                    Goodbye.

        When you’re a billionaire. Then it turns out, you’re just giving your heart to the crowd. And then, when you fund and speak at Nazi party rallies overseas, you’re just fighting “woke” or something. And when you agree that “Jews are doing ethnic replacement” on Twitter, you just have to take pictures at a concentration camp and you’re a “friend of Israel”

        But I do enjoy when people get fired because they think they can do it too

        I’m not going to get into how the Federation are clearly space Nazi’s right now. However I’m not sure how my username should effect my feelings about freedoms we no longer enjoy in the UK. Freedoms that according to the UK government only pedophiles and far-right extremists care about. Don’t forget that as our freedoms are being removed I now need to use a VPN to access Lemmy.zip because we have rampant censorship and no free speech.

      Its not intolerance to refuse to support them. Being far right makes you a liar and bigot at the very least. I haven’t seen one example of a decent human being who considers themselves far right.

        Everyone that isn’t a Leftist gets slapped with the far-right label these days though. Especially by the British government where ANY anti-immigration sentiment or even patriotism is branded dangerous far-right.

        Hell even waving our own flag in Britain will get you labelled as far-right.

        The term gets thrown around while most people don’t really understand it. That is what is dangerous.

            If you’re referring to the flag there are local authorities that will TRY and order you to take down the Union Jack as it can be offensive to some people. Which usually results on more flags being flown.

            Is there another country on Earth where the feelings of foreigners is placed above and beyond the national flag?

            Yes I know why. There are far-right people. (Possibly Musk and Trump) but then there are right wing people. People that simply want free speech, a free and open internet, privacy, border controls and not have illegal immigrants going to the head of the line for public services. Non of which we have anymore in the UK. But everyone not left wing gets lumped together and branded a far-right extremist.

            The leftists are completely tolerant of others. Until you disagree with them.
