View submission: Elon Musk misleadingly suggests other celebrities made controversial 'Nazi' gesture
Even if that’s the case, it doesn’t make it okay for Elon. It would just make them all shitty Nazis.

As far as I can tell, extending your arm out towards a crowd is just a natural movement. Everyone does it because it's a way to reach towards a crowd, and trying to regulate that behavior would be impossible.
In elons case, he touched his chest first, which makes the whole movement different, and he was extending his heart to the crowd", which makes this a reasonable gesture to make. I don't think there's any reasonable interpretation of this where Elon is in the wrong, which is why jewish groups have been defending him
