I buy that Elon is autistic enough to accidentally do a Nazi salute.

Weird how many people on the spectrum don’t do Nazi stuff at political events.

I would not refute the possibility that he precisely said "my heart goes out to you" for what could be claimed to be the original roman salute. but even an ironic wh40k salute still implies singleminded devotion, something I always felt cheapened the mandatory pledge of allegiance. imho, people should confront the natural tendencies of nationalism, and arrive at their own limiting principle.

Based on what I saw, it didn't seem like it crossed his mind. The full clip shows him saying "My heart goes out to you all," and with that context, it makes more sense - he is throwing his heart out to the crowd. If anything, this looks to me like an accident or just lack of awareness.
