It should have been just another inauguration. One more of the same stiff men and women freezing their asses off in January, looking bored and waiting for it all to end. Just 2025 on the books, you know?

During Donald Trump’s inauguration on January 20, 2025, Elon Musk delivered a speech punctuated by two Nazi salutes. Yes, Nazi salutes both deliberate, unmistakable, and horrifying in their clarity. Here is the video.

We live in an age where the victims have become the villains. Jewish people who justify holocaust because this time, they’re the ones who need it to get ahead. In what religion are our minds so polluted that we can justify any murder for the sake of something holy? I’ve looked around. All the major sects really frown upon killing. Only a human could exist in the dissonance of such a situation. So many humans have. They told us already, too. Collective deafness to the voice of truths is also human; so fragile and stupid.

When you control what people see and hear, you influence how the think and behave. This is fact. It exists as the basis of thousands of experiments. When you manage everything the population sees, hears and then use your position to show them things that make them sad, mad, scared, and stupid, what is being created is black-hearted, hate-filled. Musk has already used Twitter to skew public opinion and silence dissent. He talks about his joy of exploiting H1B Visas, his hate of multiculturalism, and his desire to cut costs on 60 years of progress in DEI initiatives. By day two of his presidency, Trump announced an end to DEIA initiatives in the entire government.

That was a Nazi salute.

Let me talk to you about Overton’s window. It’s a phrase coined to explain the window of what is viewed as acceptable in our society. Last week, said window had a different view. When one looked out, a scene that made sense was there: we saw a society of people who understood you didn’t throw out a sieg heil in public. A person could reasonably expect they wouldn’t see any symbols of Nazis when out and about. You could gaze out the window and know this, too, that nothing you saw should be a Nazi.

Back in Nazi Germany, where the technique was perfected, it was used to slowly introduce radical ideas which was done through, you guessed it, the media. Over time, the window widened, and what was formerly unheard of (like fucking Nazis being openly Nazis!) became public policy. When people are desensitized, numbed, and pliable. What a person once thought was unthinkable becomes normalized.

People are debating whether this was a Nazi salute. Elon Musk confirms this with his recent tweet full of Nazi puns but absent in denials.

How long before we are desensitized? How long before the Overton widow’s view shifts right back to Germany, 1930s?

Billionaires in the front row at the inauguration. Destruction of years of progress in days, all with a common theme.

A Nazi salute at a government event is a call to arms. Through symbolism, visibility, and the eerie silence of institutions too compromised to push back, hatred can grow unabated.

The question is not whether history is repeating itself. We are watching it happen, step by step. The real question is: what are we going to do about it?
