The ADL is much more of a far right Israeli lobby these days than anything else. Of course they support the administration.

That doesn't seem like a denial from Musk, but instead he's just accusing others, but the article doesn't include specific quotes.

From what I remember of the incident, he specifically didn't deny that they were Nazi salutes, but merely hinted that they may have been a Roman salute, though that's pretty much the same thing.

I can't recall any time that he's tried to distance himself from Nazis or their ideology.

Although the ADL didn't think that it was a Nazi salute, most other Jewish organisations thought that it was and Germany very much condemned it, so on balance reasonable people should conclude that it's generally thought of as a Nazi salute. Also, former ADL national director Abraham Foxman described the gesture as a "Heil Hitler Nazi salute".

Reasonable people can simply watch the video and see for themselves - it very much looked exactly like a Nazi salute to me.

> Here’s a denial from Musk.

Here's video of Musk performing his fascist salutes. He did it deliberately, he did it with gusto, he grunted with the effort, and he did it twice just to make sure:

There's no denying it.
