Summary
Elon Musk is considering suing Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz after Walz accused him of performing a Nazi salute at Trump’s inauguration.
Musk’s gesture, where he placed his hand on his heart before extending his arm outward, sparked controversy due to its resemblance to historical fascist salutes.
The Anti-Defamation League deemed it an “awkward gesture” rather than a Nazi salute but acknowledged public concern.
Musk, who owns X (formerly Twitter), responded to calls for legal action by saying, “I think I will.”
If everyone’s saying it how is one guy legally liable for saying it?
Even right wing white supremacists are saying it was a Nazi salute and are thanking him for it. https://www.wired.com/story/neo-nazis-love-elon-musk-nazi-like-salutes-trumps-inauguration/
Notably, these people aren’t being sued about it
