    • @richardpoindexter9274

      The origin of this salute is the good ol’ USA. It’s called the Bellamy salute. Practiced in all U.S. classrooms by U.S. between 1878-1943 which is when congress abolished it and our students started using the hand over heart salute. Germany learned this salute from the U.S. because in the early 1900’s the U.S. was the eugenics capital of the world. America was ran by the Triple K’s society. Even Germany visited the U.S. before it wrote its Nuremberg laws. 28 U.S. states passed eugenics laws allowing for experimentation in its citizens. 600,000 women suffered (female genitalia mutilation) under these laws, and this includes W women who were not blonde haired and blue eyed. The leader of Germany at that time learned everything he implemented from this country. The Tuskegee experiment was also “legally” practiced under these American laws. Look it up.

    The OG German salute is performed by tapping the left shoulder, followed by extending the right arm from the shoulder into the air with a straightened hand. The arm should be straight and pointed forward.
    Elons grabs his chest area and continues to deviate his arm to the right pretty dramatic and chaotic, without meaningful orchestration.
    There is no parallel between the German past and the current predicament in the US. The two situations involve very different historical, cultural, and political contexts.
    The scale and scope of Trump’s actions are fundamentally different from the extreme and violent nature of the German regime eighty years ago.
    Trump can certainly pose risks to democratic institutions, but these risks are very different from the explicit creation of an authoritarian regime bent on mass violence or genocide.
    Stop calling them fascist. What do you have to offer beyond your hollow and venomous resentment?
    How do you intend to sway the people who now have cast their votes for Trump cause to embrace a vision more aligned with _your_ preferences, while at the same time addressing their legitimate concerns in a manner that compels them to reconsider their allegiance, _despite_ them being a bunch of ****??
    I bet you've never thought about that.
