Tesla CEO Elon Musk protested at a celebration of U.S. President Donald Trump's inauguration, calling it an "incitement of the mainstream media" after it became controversial with a move reminiscent of a Nazi salute.
On the 21st (local time), Musk shared a post by another user on X (X, formerly Twitter) that contained a photo of former U.S. President Barack Obama, former Vice President Kamala Harris, and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton raising one arm diagonally.
At the same time, Musk wrote, "The mainstream media is completely incendiary and you are the media now." It is argued that the Democratic Party of Korea, which made similar moves, does not take issue with it, but only targets itself.
"Honestly, if you want to scratch it, you have to do better," Musk said, adding, "Everyone's Hitler-like attacks are so boring."
The Anti-Defamation Coalition, an anti-Semitic organization, posted a post saying, "Musk seems to have made an awkward gesture at a moment of enthusiasm and it's not a Nazi salute," according to the BBC.
However, the BBC quoted experts and analyzed that Musk's actions should be viewed as a Nazi salute.
"As a fascist researcher, the Nazi salute was right and it was a very aggressive salute," said Ruth Ben-Giart, a history professor at New York University.
Regarding Musk's hand gestures, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz said, "There is freedom of expression, but support for the far right is unacceptable."
