Need to be update to "I Bought This Before Elon Went Nazi".
It’s obvious to anyone who has watched the video with an iota of common sense that Musk didn’t deliberately make a Nazi salute.
Even the hypersensitive ADL can recognise that.
It's not even a discussion for us. That is fact, you or the ADL (I don't care who they are) can say anything they want, the fact that he did it and can't ignore the meaning of this make him a Nazi. Adding to the context of supporting Neo-nazi political groups and the ideas that he is pushing, there is absolutely zero doubt why he made a nazi salute.

Elon Musk might be antisemitic, but he's OUR antisemite, so hands off!

The gesture he did is both mechanistically different, and contextually different.
It’s only people who are convinced a priori that he’s a Nazi who seem to contort his awkward gesture to fit that narrative.
Tesla sales in Germany will drop again in 2025, and it's politically related.
Germany is definitely a smaller market than US/China but it's not an insignificant market that can be ignored, losing in it is missing on profits.
For reference, Germany was the third biggest market for Tesla (1/10 of China). France was 4th (1/10 of China too) and Canada was 5th (1/11 of China).
It's not the end of Tesla, but it's politically related.
