I see no salient differences between the two.

What differences do you see between them? How do the differences contribute to what you see as a meaningful difference between them?

I have seen the original video. However charitably I tried to look at it, it looked very much like a nazi salute to me. I watched Herr Hitler doing his salute for comparison, it looked eerily similar to me.

How did you interpret the original video?

I've seen that video. I've also watched his complete disregard for other people (DOGE, anyone), seen his ideas of "free speech", witnessed Mechahitler, and Twitter being turned into the fascist club house.

That fucking salute was one thing. He knows what he's doing or trying to do. Many people in Europe are appalled by what they see. So they stopped buying his shit. Fair game, this being goddamn free market capitalism and all.
