He bent his whole body to give a salute. It was quite off-center and awkward, not really like the nazi salute as seen on historical videos of Hitler, which is a much more deliberate and aligned hand motion in relation to the body. If Elon time traveled to Hitler rallies and did this salute, he'd be reprimanded for doing it all wrong.

The problem was when lefties were in charge of Twitter's moderation team. They were trigger-happy in banning anyone who didn’t agree with their self-proclaimed "social consensus." In this last U.S. election cycle, we found out this consensus was a lie. Examples:
User1: "I'm against illegal immigration. Deport the illegals now!"
Mod: "Racist!! You're permanently banned!"
User2: "We gotta have stricter laws for legal refugees. They don't respect our local customs and bring social issues (i.e., higher crime rates) that burden the taxpayer."
Mod: "Nazi!! You're permanently banned!"
User3: "I'm against hormonal therapies and sex-change surgeries on kids. We gotta have legislation that forbids it and makes doctors accountable."
Mod: "Transphobe!! You're permanently banned!"
They maliciously extrapolate dissenting opinions to paint them as something bad. People have the right to be dissatisfied with current policies and advocate for change. That shouldn't be a bannable offense.
Twitter 1.0 outright banned right-leaning users. Silencing dissenting voices from online political discourse isn't considered "gaming the system"?
Does anyone remember when Twitter 1.0 censored stories about the Hunter Biden Laptop? On my book, that's manipulation.
X has been accused of manipulating its systems to give far-right posts and politicians greater visibility over other political groups.
Before Elon bought Twitter, the system did the exact same thing, but with left-leaning posts. Back then, the French prosecutors didn't seem to care. Now that the political tide is changing, they suddenly care?
People will see what they want to see. Even if Elon discovered the cure to all types of cancer, people would still nitpick anything about him to justify their hate.
