The salute can only be confirmed by seeing it in video. A still capture
does not make it a bad salute. Elon clearly did a bad salute when watching
the video. Photo montages of others will prove they did nothing close to a
n*zi salute.
I've had a tesla since 2018 and there isn't a more fun car to drive. I will
gladly keep mine but don't support Elon's current politics. Tesla employs
over 140,000 people worldwide and I assume most of them are good people. I
will continue to buy tesla as long as they make great cars that I love to
drive.
