Summary

Elon Musk rejected accusations of Nazi sympathies in a Fox News interview, calling it “outrageous” and blaming media propaganda.

Critics point to his straight-arm salute at Trump’s rally, endorsement of a German far-right party, and reinstating white supremacist accounts on X.

His cuts to federal agencies under DOGE have sparked protests and vandalism, including nicknaming Teslas “swasticars.”

Musk claims he’s targeted for character assassination and receives daily death threats. He and Lara Trump compared the attacks to those against Donald Trump, accusing mainstream media of spreading lies.

    Did Fox News then challenge him and show a clip of him throwing up a Sieg Heil Nazi salute at CPAC earlier this year?

    Of course they didn’t because Fox News isn’t journalism, but rather a Nazi sympathizing propaganda dissemination fire hose.

      Then there’s the whole supporting the AFD. If he’s not a Nazi, why is he supporting Nazis?
