elon-musks-salute-defense/

Lefty Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was dragged on X for “jewsplaining” to
the Anti-Defamation League after the group defended Elon Musk’s “awkward
gesture” that progressives insisted was a Nazi salute.

Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) accused the antisemitism watchdog group of “defending
a Heil Hitler salute” before arguing that the ADL “works for” President
Trump and his allies.

“Just to be clear, you are defending a Heil Hitler salute that was
performed and repeated for emphasis and clarity,” Ocasio-Cortez wrote in
response to the ADL on X.

“People can officially stop listening to you as any sort of reputable
source of information now. You work for them. Thank you for making that
crystal clear to all,” she added.

Footage of Musk thanking Trump supporters took off Monday, with many
questioning whether the tech mogul did a fascist salute after he placed
his right hand over his heart and extended his arm in the air.

The ADL took to X in Musk’s defense, writing, “It seems that [Musk] made
an awkward gesture in a moment of enthusiasm, not a Nazi salute,” and
argued people on both sides of the aisle shouldn’t jump to conclusions.

Many social media users quickly took offense at AOC’s response, calling
out the Bronx and Queens rep for trying to explain antisemitism to the
watchdog group, with one commentator noting: “We now have AOC jewsplaining
to the ADL.”

Another X user chimed in: “AOC trying to Jewsplain to the ADL why they are
antisemitic. She’s officially lost her mind.”

Some users used the moment to drag Ocasio-Cortez, who has been an
outspoken critic of Israel and previously accused the country of
committing “genocide” against the Palestinian people.

“If, like @ADL, you fight antisemitism every day, I’m ready to
respectfully hear your opinion on what Elon Musk intended. THAT’S NOT WHAT
@AOC IS DOING. This is a cynical political game for her. She supports
antisemites. She’s scoring cheap points against the ADL because they
support the rights of ALL Jews including Israeli Jews,” one person wrote.

Others took offense at Ocasio-Cortez going against one of the most
prominent American Jewish civil rights organizations in the US just
because it didn’t fit her agenda.

“Just to be clear, AOC is trying to delegitimize the preeminent American
Jewish civil rights organization here after spending the last 15 months
defending those guilty of the very ideology the ADL was founded to
combat,” one commentator argued.

“The ADL gave a good sound statement and AOC just went for its neck
because it didn’t align with her politics. The U.S. political debate is
already off the rails and it’s not even day one. If AOC wants to blame
someone for encouraging antisemitism she should look at the mirror,”
another person added.

Meanwhile, Musk defended the one-armed gesture he gave during Trump’s
inauguration — arguing the left-wingers who accused him of giving a Nazi
salute “need better dirty tricks.”

“The ‘everyone is Hitler’ attack is sooo tired,” Musk wrote on X.

Musk later thanked the ADL for coming to his defense, writing, “Thanks
guys,” along with a crying laughing face emoji.

November 5, 2024 - Congratulations President Donald Trump.  We look
forward to America being great again.

The disease known as Kamala Harris has been effectively treated and
eradicated.

We live in a time where intelligent people are being silenced so that
stupid people won't be offended.

Durham Report: The FBI has an integrity problem.  It has none.

Thank you for cleaning up the disaster of the 2008-2017 Obama / Biden
fiasco, President Trump.

Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the
The World According To Garp.  Obama sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood
queer liberal democrat donors.
