💨 Abstract

Billionaire Elon Musk's hand gesture during President Trump's inauguration sparked online comparisons to a Nazi salute, but the Anti-Defamation League deemed it an awkward moment of enthusiasm rather than a hate symbol. Musk, who has supported a far-right German party, made the gesture while expressing gratitude to the crowd. Some defended Musk online, claiming the gesture was an expression of affection, not a Nazi salute.
