Original Note:
The gesture made by Elon Musk is consistent with the 'Nazi salute', which is not necessarily accompanied by any particular phrase and can sometimes be altered from the ideal form to maintain plausible deniability about the gesture's intent or to avoid laws banning its use. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazi_salute https://x.com/waitmanb/status/1881446968679088467 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quenelle_(gesture)
