    Not another accidental Nazi salute! These clumsy Nazis keep accidentally throwing that Nazi salute around completely by mistake!

    This was in the same speech where he said that the Holy Spirit was working through Trump to do all of this, and that Trump should have a third term and beyond.

    It’s becoming obvious that we should be treating Trumpism as a religious cult, not just a political movement.

      And here I thought Steve had seen the light because he spoke out against some of the stuff Trump was doing but I guess that orange dick is just too good to take out of their butts/mouths.

    Distraction & diversion. He’s revealed his “secrets” in length in the past about his calculated moves in puppeteering the media and general discourse, preventing us from focusing on what’s actually important. It’s already working on the shoddy news media of 2025. Don’t let it work on general discourse as well

    And every conservative in America is silent.

    Silence is complicity.

    No more excuses. No more feigned ignorance.

    It’s not exactly the same as Musk’s (doesn’t thump his heart first) – which is probably the point. Trying to sneak in more completely implausible “plausible deniability.” Nobody’s fooled. It looks like a duck, it’s a duck.

      I agree mostly but #1 and #5 just look like a sideways wave. I don’t think it’s a duck and shouldn’t be thrown in as a duck when there’s 5 other pictures that very much look like a duck

      I’m unfamiliar with the context for most of these. Plenty don’t look like Nazi salutes. To me, anyway.

      But literally every word that has slithered out of that moldy potato’s mouth for the last two decades is all you need to know he’s a white supremacist.

        Yeah a lot of those look moderately benign (waving away media, for example). Best case scenario it’s an unfortunate habit what happens to make him look like a Nazi… At the same time, I’d expect someone to break the habit to distance themselves from it.

      Fascists always end up swinging.

      The problem is a ton of decent people usually have to die first. Economies have to be destroyed. Rights have to be won back. Allegiances broken.

      They’ll get theirs. But what do we lose in the process?

    Good. I want more of them to do it. Let’s get past the phase where people still try to rationalize ways in which it’s not what it literally is.

      What’s sad is that right now on my screen the comment above yours is someone trying to claim it isn’t a Nazi salute because…blah blah blah.

      I’m with you though. I hope they all out themselves. Makes them easier to find and deal with.

      Wild that these perfectly normal unusual waves keep happening among Trump’s inner circle during speeches. These perfectly average waves that look quite a lot like sieg heils and have never really been sighted or performed by US political figures outside of these perfectly normal waves that have started happening since Trump’s inauguration.

      Everybody can see through your bullshit. You should educate yourself about the Nuremburg trials.

      Nah I think peacefully occupying a sidewalk that oligarchs never walk on or care about even maintaining is the best idea, we should keep doing that for 40 more years, that’ll work!

    There seems to be an epidemic of “awkward hand gestures” and “Roman salutes” and according to some people on Twitter we’re not allowed to call them Nazis because we can’t literally read minds. I’m so tired of enablers.

    The real headline should be “CPAC audience cheers Bannon’s Nazi salute”, because they totally did, and it leaves no doubt that CPAC is full of Nazis.
