The same way Elon Musk is allowed to walk around and throw around Nazi salutes and spout the "benefits" of racial seperatism like the piece of shit he is, is the same way people are allowed to appropriate symbols of hate in their freedom of expression.

As I've previously said, I don't particularly like that, but that's free speech, and it's covered by the constitution. Once you start whittling that down, shit gets messy, so it's all or nothing.

As the saying goes: "I Disapprove of What You Say, But I Will Defend to the Death Your Right to Say It"

That's freedom of speech and expression. Take the good with the bad, or be done with the whole thing. Trump wants to do the latter, and I'll take the former with my dying breath.

throw around Nazi salutes

I thought you said it was all about "intent" though? Cuz he says he didn't intend for that to be a nazi salute.

Lemmy told me that if you defend a nazi thing, then you are a nazi thing. So, sorry man, I gotta put on you the list. It's ok, Lemmy thinks it should be that way. I'm sure you understand.

Along with the Adl and leader of Israel. It’s weird how all the anti-Semitic left want to call Elon a Nazi while they want to genocide the Jews. It’s weird as fuck

Yeah, the nazi leanings I am getting from Democrats lately is sick to watch. It's almost as if they are throwing the Nazi word around so much just to hide their true nature.

They have their brown shirts (antifa), they attack Jewish people and their businesses, they love to classify people by race and gender, disloyalty from group think is punished. I mean the list goes on and on.

Yep. They're pretty terrible.
