    It was definitely questionable. People saying it’s 100% are being unreasonable. There’s a large interpretation here.

    And calling people names and trying to bully people into accepting your view is disturbing.

    He threw his hand out from his heart and said my heart goes out to you. It’s definitely questionable.

      Don’t point to a swastika and tell me it’s a windmill.

      What was performed, is a textbook nazi salute. Start to finish.

        No the hands grabbing the heart isn’t. Actual Nazis have said this.

        And then throwing it out to the crowd is different.

          WW2, might seem like a long time ago. But it really isn’t. We have video footage of Hitler himself. Performing this exact routine.

          Would you like me to spoon-feed you a side by side comparison?

      No doubt about the gesture. Why are literal neo nazis all over neo nazi media super happy about it? Why is the only video record of such heartfelt gestures from modern nazi rallies or black and white and in german/italian? only question is why a man from a nazi family backing a party who is changing the constitutuon in order to harass minorities would do such a thing. 3 times in a row.

      If you think the gesture means heartfelt thanks go do it infront of a synagogue, infront of your boss and in a highly public place. Its an EXTREMELY common gesture americans use all the time, right?
