    Remember when everyone hated on regular Russian citizens for not forming a rebellious revolution against Putin and assassinating him in his sleep? For not shooting every Russian oligarch and everyone who rubber stamped the invasion of Ukraine? Remember when people called them cowards and “as good as nazis” for being complacent and not getting up and doing something about it?

    Where are you keyboard warriors now that the USA needs you?

    Just sayin’

    In the meantime while everyone is looking at Elon Donald is signing executive orders to

    • Grant top secret security clearances to White House staff without going through traditional vetting procedures.
    • Open the Alaska wilderness to more oil and gas drilling.
    • Eliminate environmental justice programs across the government, which are aimed at protecting poor communities from excess pollution.
    • Move to end birthright citizenship, which is guaranteed by the 14th Amendment, for the children of undocumented immigrants.
    • Declare migrant crossings along the U.S.-Mexico border to be a national emergency
    • Remove protections for transgender people in federal prisons.
    • Ensure that states carrying out the death penalty have a “sufficient supply” of lethal injection drugs.

    Ngl, I was sceptical since still images are not a good representation of what’s really going on when people are moving around, but then I checked out the video. Good lord, he even did it twice.

    What’s funny (not really) it’s the media calling it a “nazi style salute” or “a gesture that looked like a nazi salute”.

    Their head is so far up their asses that they can’t even call it what it was.

    And it’s day fucking 1! We still have (at least) four more YEARS of this!

    I’m reminded of Trump’s first term, when we all thought it couldn’t possibly get any worse, and yet it always did keep getting worse.

    Real funny how r/elonmusk official stance is that it was not a nazi salute. And yet the entire place is on complete lockdown. its as if someone just threw 3 sig heils while the cheers got louder only during the gesture.

    It’s so fucking cringe the way he’s biting his lip and does that little grunt. He was really sitting there amping himself up for this moment. “That’s it I’m going to sieg hail!!!”

    What a fucking loser. No friends unlikeable moron.
