Pennsylvania elected official resigns after she made a gesture similar to Elon Musk's controversial gesture
"controversial gesture". It's a Nazi salute you pathetic journalist.
Also I wonder if Fetterman will be hiring her.
Wow, CBS still diligently avoiding calling any of this what it very obviously is to anyone not trying to protect Nazis. I guess CBS is happy to be known for visibly protecting Nazis.
CBS is
billionaireoligarch propagandaIt's kind of like so much of the "liberal media" keeps calling those terrorists that stormed the Capitol (as part of something that was planned for fucking WEEKS and MONTHS) "rioters".
They brought weapons, including guns, too. They planted bombs. They had a fucking gallows out. They brought zip-ties to restrain Congresspeople and who knows who else.
They let bullshitters on the right keep getting away with saying they were "unarmed". That is a fucking lie and they let it slide so very often. And now their narrative is that these terrorists were "overcharged", because I saw that dickhead Watters use that term more than once. The qons are apparently going to send brown people to Gitmo for being brown, meanwhile, these terrorists, who should have gone to Gitmo, are given a blanket pardon.
If they call it a nazi salute Musk will sue them and could win because he isn’t provably a member of a nazi organization. He could be a neo-nazi but CBS can’t call him one without proof.
So call it a "fascist salute", "Hitler's salute", or "the salute that the Nazis used"
All of which is factually correct.
He would definitely not win. What he did is a Nazi salute. Whether he thinks what he did is one doesn't matter because he did a Nazi salute.
If I flip someone off, I can tell people I was just letting that person know I think they're number 1, but that doesn't mean I didn't flip them off.
It takes a real coward to not call out a very clear and worldly infamous hand gesture that has existed for 80+ years, when a man that also spews hate rhetoric throws it not just once but multiple times. Further, to my knowledge he has never even denied it, just joked about it and criticized people that criticize him.

Guess we'll see how much these journalists with a spine will be successfully sued.
I get where you're coming from, I do, but can we please stop with the purity tests?
Takes a pretty spineless person to clutch at pearls over calling a Nazi a Nazi.
The day I start walking on egg shells to cater to Nazis, I'm checking out. The only good Nazi is a dead Nazi, and with nothing left, I'll take out as many of those fuckers with me as I can.
I'll never be a sympathizer like yourself, so I'll never get to that point, but that sentiment stands.
Trying to not upset the oligarchs with accurate language and reporting is a big part of how we got here IMO. it's not a purity test to want the media to call a Nazi a Nazi.
