Calvin Robinson 2 Months, 1 Week ago  
Not only was Calvin Robinson sacked from a far right US church over his "Roman" salute, he has now had his US visa revoked.

There are several YT videos of unwise MAGA's doing likewise and then getting sacked from their jobs.

I don't get joy from any of this but it shows the intensity of feeling over this salute.

It's said that the plunging Tesla sales in Germany is a direct result of Musk's salute plus the fact that the largest EU Superannuation fund has sold it's Tesla shares and advised other corporations to do likewise.

But now Steve Bannon has done the same salute at the US conservative conference where Liz Truss is appearing (calling the UK a "failed state" which stills pays her an enormous life pension for a few weeks work) .

I wonder if there will be a backlash.

Wonder why some people in the US now feel confident doing Nazi salutes. Can't imagine what the reason might be.

Nazi salutes, Liz Truss, and chainsaws. It's like a Horror Convention.

Looks nothing like the Nazi salute same with Musk. But less religious people the better.

Calvin Robinson is grifter then again which religious fanatic is not? He does seem to cosplay IMHO. Tesla may have slumped in sales but Musk bank account is still growing.

We need a Big Balls in the UK, to see where our taxes are going to, seeing if Rachel from Complaints is telling the truth about the black hole.

Hedda, you must surely know as well as I do that Musk did not raise his arm in a Nazi salute. Why are people still kidding themselves about that?

Tesla sales falling because of a quick raised arm, really? Unsure about that. Unlikely.

Why was the VW Beetle so internationally popular when that was literally the product of Hitler's Nazi Germany in the 1930's. That didn't stop people worldwide buying the classic Beetle model for decades did it and yet it's dripping with Nazi Hitler association.

I'm just a poster on a website.

I don't give a flying stuff that people say the "Roman" salute is or isn't a Sieg Heil.

I am commenting on what others believe and the consequences for several people who give that salute. .

That exact salute is a crime in Germany and now several Australian states.

Several German newspapers ran editorials criticizing Musk

A man was convicted in Melbourne recently for giving it but avoided jail.

This is reality.
