    Elon Musk’s appearance at a Trump rally this afternoon is garnering significant attention online over a one-armed gesture.

    He made the gesture while thanking supporters for contributing to Trump’s victory. Musk thanked the crowd for “making it happen”, before placing his right hand over his heart and then thrusting the same arm out into air straight ahead of him.

    “My heart goes out to you. It is thanks to you that the future of civilisation is assured,” he said.

    Several users on X, the social medial platform he owns, have likened the gesture to a Nazi salute.

    Musk has since responded, posting on his social media site X: “Frankly, they need better dirty tricks. The ‘everyone is Hitler’ attack is sooo tired.”

    I wish western journalists would have opted to become compost instead. Compost is useful.
