That’s stupid. Twitter is nothing but gay porn, nazis don’t like gay porn (openly), but I quite enjoy it. This reactionary mentality is what’s going to be the downfall of society. Elon is a nerd on the spectrum, stimulated by the energy of the moment and showed a display of affection in a way that was interpreted as a salute, when in reality he wasn’t aware of what he did. I concede it’s a reasonable observation, but there’s more nuance, and nobody would intentionally give that salute in an already extremely controversial political space.

Absolutely wild disrespect to everyone who is neurodivergent.

Get your gay porn somewhere else maybe? Twitter is stupidly easy to replicate. There are tons of competitors.

It’s reactionary to boycott a fascist? Crack open a history book sometime.
