Just looked it up after reading your post.
Its a new day and yet so many are on edge. Our politics are inflamed, and social media only adds to the anxiety. It seems that Elon Musk made an awkward gesture in a moment of enthusiasm, not a Nazi salute, but again, we appreciate that people are on edge, the ADL stated.
"In this moment, all sides should give one another a bit of grace, perhaps even the benefit of the doubt, and take a breath, it added. This is a new beginning. Lets hope for healing and work toward unity in the months and years ahead."
This may be best piece of advice I've seen today.

Naivete. News is news but the way it's presented can and quite often does lean one way of the other.

Ok. Like I said, news is news, but rarely are just the facts reported. Very rarely.

Agreed. Seems all the billionaire news platform owners are rolling over for trump and moving way right.

Attributing an obvious Sig Heil salute with "Asperger's" isn't being impartial.

I'm not letting the ADL gaslight me. I know a Nazi salute when I see it done twice like that.
