Original Note:
Media has no reason to be outraged by this as this is known as non-verbal communication and is not a specific gesture. The frames are taken out of context to make it seem like they are doing a ‘Nazi Salute’. You can watch Elon’s video to see how it’s done. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0065260108602415#:~:text=The%20primary%20function%20of%20conversational,person%20perception%20and%20attribution%20processes. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazi_salute https://m.jpost.com/international/article-838444 https://x.com/patriottakes/status/1881433327779168614
