Nah, two enthusiastic salutes say you a Nazi boy.

    It is.

    Just like it would be outrageous to claim that Hitler was a Nazi. It’s outrageous to claim something that everyone already knows.

    The fact he’s grown up in an african-german area where “Heil Hitler” was a normal salute until the 70s has surely and absolutely anything to do about that.

    Yeah, I mean, if taking over a social media platform and directly boosting Nazis on it, throwing a very public Sieg Hiel twice on national TV and directly financially sponsoring the AfD (new Nazi party) as well as the global alt right makes you a Nazi, then you could practically call anyone a Nazi, right?

      I wanted to share the side by side comparison gif that shows him and his idol doing the same salute, but apparently the file size is too large, even though I am pretty sure I got the gif from lemmy

        Depends on the instance. Looks like you’re on .ee like me, and AFAICT, .ee has a lower file size limit than some other instances. Which, tbh, I get it. Shit gets expensive fast.

          Thank you. I am still quite new to lemmy and my account has only been old enough to post pictures for a couple days, so I am still learning how it all works.

    Let’s look on the bright side. He is still reluctant to acknowledge it, which means that even he knows it is a shameful thing to be. I would be more afraid if he said “Hell yeah, I am, what are you gonna do about it?”

    Is it really outrageous, though? Because the evidence suggests it and there’s not really any counter-evidence.
