    Tim Waltz does not have eugenics-adjacent beliefs.

    Also, I think you may have misinterpreted what “red herring” means.

      I didn’t misinterpret that, I was simply pointing out that it wasn’t a nazi salute unless you also think Tim Waltz is a nazi.

        And you are bringing up a red herring (salutes) that doesn’t matter, because, well, I don’t know. But that’s the whole point of the saying.

        Yes notice the crisp snappy way waltz did it? With fingers together, and twice so there is no way to doubt what it was? Ohhh wait sorry that was elons.

            All the nazis saw it as a nazi salute too! They were chuffed! Let’s not ignore his love and support for the afd, and antisemites on Twitter!

            Yes, the way you say two, very very different things are the same is certainly gold medal worthy mental gymnastics. Well said.
