it's crazy that two of my friends' Teslas were keyed because Musk did a hand-to-heart motion, but a literal SS tattoo seems to a-ok

If you still don’t think Musk did that motion intentionally, I have a bridge to sell you.

there is no evidence that Musk is anti-semitic

he's friggin friends with Israel's PM for Pete's sake

meanwhile Platner is as anti-semitic as you can get without overtly saying he hates Jews

Do you think the only part of Nazi ideology is anti semitism? Do you think it is possible to be receptive to or aligned with Nazism/fascism without hating Jews?

it's the core part of being a Nazi

without anti-semitism, it's just fascism

and given that Musk was tasked with REDUCING the power of the government, he wasn't a fascist either

Given that antisemitism was a *core tenet* of Nazism, it is definitionally impossible to be a Nazi without hating Jews.
