Original Note:
PBS is not saying that Elon meant for his "fascist appearing gesture" to actually be the Nazi salute. They specifically stated they are unsure of its meaning. https://x.com/NewsHour/status/1881489221711532223?t=vcac2mhixS5pQxMqiDERNw&s=19 However, there is evidence that those who support antisemitism are interpreting it as such. https://www.wired.com/story/neo-nazis-love-elon-musk-nazi-like-salutes-trumps-inauguration/
