Nazi platform.
Make sure to stop clicking on Nazi links when people post them. No matter how bad you want to see someone "prank" someone or cry about their perceived persecution.
We need to stop making a Nazi platform important enough that it hurts democratic politicians when they lose access because of the Nazi in charge of said platform.
Ekrem is Kemalist, which is very similar to a literal Nazi, but in the current world I'll even agree he's kinda better than many other variants.

I hear often Nazi this Nazi that? I think it has lost meaning. Can you explain what Nazi is? Vs Nazi from like WW2?

Has Musk ever met a dictator he doesn't like?
I think elon called Lula a dictator...and called the UK a dictatorship. That makes it even more obvious what he's doing.

If you perform a Nazi salute, you're a Nazi.
Musk performed TWO Nazi salutes on national television during a presidential inauguration.
Musk owns X.
Anymore questions? Do I need to illustrate with crayons?

Some would say a Roman salute 🫡
So anything else substantial? That can't be interpreted as something else? -

not my job and this is not the place to waste my time providing a textbook-level of evidence of what you could have researched yourself if you were willing to be persuaded, but ask your History teacher if you're seriously asking.

As a serious answer, Musk is into modern variants of eugenics and some scary techno-authoritarian stuff he shares with Peter Theil and other Silicon Valley royalty.
Maybe he’s a techno-neonazi? That’s just semantics.
His alleged Nazi salute is indeed kind of a red herring. But “Nazi” is an reasonable enough descriptor for his beliefs.

Then why did you reply to me?
I know what a Nazi is
However people often misuse it with people they disagree with. Elon already had a lot of hate before that.Can a Jew be a Nazi? Are Kanye a Nazi?
People with their beehive mentality, just echoes being what other people says. Can't have simple discussions without people trying crucify you for asking questions.

Free speech absolutism at work
It’s frustrating that we knew he was full of shit when he was saying it. And now the evidence is showing it is bullshit. And it’s like it doesn’t even matter.

Note how Jin, the Nazi Defender (not a Nazi themselves, they just defend people who are justifiably called Nazis) won't respond to your answer.
One feature from Reddit I liked was the ability to tag people. Or maybe that was the reddit enhancement suite. But Jin would've earned himself a big red "Nazi Defender" tag.

He also said Canada is 'not a real country' so...

A little context might have been nice, but then the musk hate and conspiracy theories would be harder to justify:
X restricted Imamoglu’s account in Turkey complying with a legal request by Turkish authorities who cited national security and public order concerns.
They're also challenging the legal request in court: https://x.com/GlobalAffairs/status/1920426409358455081

Yes, but that's not a dictator fetish (ok, it is, but it is a different one)...
He knows dictators are a bad thing to be, because he calls the people he doesn't like one. But he never calls out actual dictators, he actually makes deals with them and helps them. That says he likes and respects that model of governance, even if he knows it is deeply unpopular and deeply disrespects functioning democracies. And uses it to rouse his stans. -

The speech free platform continues to remove speech.
X restricted Imamoglu’s account in Turkey complying with a legal request by Turkish authorities who cited national security and public order concerns.
X also are challenging the legal order in court: https://x.com/GlobalAffairs/status/1920426409358455081

I thought they didn't block political figures... Guess the muskrat just meant the figures he agrees with...
They comply with local laws and legal orders, like the one that forced them to do this:
X restricted Imamoglu’s account in Turkey complying with a legal request by Turkish authorities who cited national security and public order concerns.
X also are challenging the legal order in court: https://x.com/GlobalAffairs/status/1920426409358455081

Yeah, he is forced to, but just to be clear, he will bitch for a month if this happens for thoroughly legitimate reasons in any country that is a functioning democracy e.g. UK, Brazil, Biden US, Germany, South Africa...
