    So where are these salutes coming from? Are all of these shitstains attending nazi rallies somewhere amd are literally knee-jerking when they get to a podium?

    There are things that happen to people who are nazis.

    The thing that should really give nazis pause is, even if they win, they still lose. It’s not like they’re gonna have a good life in whatever society they think they’re making.

      There are things that happen to people who are nazis.

      Those things usually aren’t just done by random people alone. They happen because people were networked,organized and working together.

      The number of days left to begin organizing are getting less and less.

    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.

      So far the only papers that I’ve seen cover this unequivocally are foreign ones

      It’s super annoying isn’t it? The video is superbly clear. He did it, he did it on purpose, and he knew what it meant. You can see it, and his intent easily.

    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.

    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.

        They were sitting down in a room in which the speaker gave a nazi salute. They did not leave when it became apparent that he would not be ejected.

          I mean, they also intentionally planned ahead to be in the same room with Bannon in the first place, to give him attention and listen to whatever “good” news he had to say.

          Any sounds of people getting angry at the salute should only illustrate the incredible ignorance we’re dealing with in this country. Blame it on stupidity, or hate, or indoctrination & conditioning, whatever you want. It’s all accurate to certain degrees depending on the individual.

    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

    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.

      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?
