For context, it’s a very clear Nazi Salute — and Musk did it more than once. The NYT is implying doubt because they’re afraid of losing access if they speak the truth and because some people who are financially dependent on Musk are denying what it was in public.
Compare and contrast:
It’s going to be a long four+ years.
The 4 year myth needs to be dispelled. There is no magical reset button every 4 years. Damage done can’t be magically erased at the end of a 4 year period.
We’re entering a period of American decline that’s going to last a lot longer than 4 years. Buckle up. As shitty as the 2000s have been for a lot of us, we’re going to look back at the early 2000s as a golden age.

Whoa I’m saving this one. Imgur could accidentally get a glitch that deletes these videos for no reason whatsoever. You never know!
Well he has his hand under a different angle, that MUST make all the difference!
Also, he’s biting his lip. You need the Serious Face to make the proper salute.
Hitler looked better at doing it.
Elon Musk was incredibly uncoordinated in his display.
To be fair, he is literally not good at anything.
He’s pretty good at buying out the election and consolidating power.
He’s terrible at video games, programming, rockets and more. But power-is-power.
He might not even be good at that either, let’s see what I can do with that kind of money. For science.
The man can boot more ket than a horse, I’ll give him that.
All he can do is spend money. Can’t do anything himself. Just buys already established companies and has other people run it. The only thing he actually has tried running (Twitter) has greatly depreciated in value, both in terms of money and content.
He’s a great father!
