Musk claims he's targeted for character assassination
Seem to remember him character assassinating a dude who helped save some Thai children a decade or so ago, except that was false and him acting real Nazi makes me think he prolly a real Nazi.

Nazi works, but if he'd prefer something else, "technofascist" and "neo-feudalist" are both arguably even more accurate.
Or we could go a different way - "psychopathic douchebag" has a nice ring to it, or maybe "delusional fuckhead."
He behaves like a Nazi so he's a Nazi. And clearly calling him that is getting under his skin, so it's working. I don't think using a different word will have the same effect. Heck, he might even latch onto neo-feudalist thinking it's cool or something.
Yeah, Nazi is too 1930's. Technofascist, that's what Elon Musk is.
interesting note: a flavor of techno fascism actually started in the 30s, it was called Technocracy, Inc.
The technocracy movement was a social movement active in the United States and Canada in the 1930s which favored technocracy as a system of government over representative democracy [...] a California engineer, invented the word technocracy in 1919 to describe "the rule of the people made effective through the agency of their servants, the scientists and engineers"
here's an article explaining how Musk, Thiel, and Andreessen (and other tech billionaires) have adopted a similar philosophy with the "Charter Cities" ancap utopianism they're working to replace democracy with.
A 1930s movement wanted to merge the US, Canada and Greenland. Here’s why it has modern resonances

Just have the balls to admit it you bloated sack of shit.
Musk claims he's targeted for character assassination
Only character?
How can one's character even be assassinated after one has murdered it themselves live in front of billions?
If someone destroys your reputation with lies, that is character assassination.
If your reputation is destroyed by people stating facts, you're just getting your comeuppance.
Everyone saw his Hitler salute.
Many people read his leaked 4Chan comments saying how great hitler was.
Fuck him and his Nazi ass car company.

Whoody wat now??? I feel like this needs to be more publicized, like posted everywhere right alongside his little saluting stunt.
There's absolutely nothing actually proving it's him. It's as provably him, as I am Ryan Reynolds. Making Deadpool 3 was pretty amazing though!

His 2 back to back hitler salutes.
It’s outrageous for him to claim it’s outrageous for us to properly identify him as Nazi, his being Nazi and all.
Sieg Heiling Space Karen Elon Musk, to be certain, is a Nazi.
It would appear her snowflake feelings are hurt, because we're holding her accountable for her Sieg Heil salutes.
But she brought that on to herself.
If he cheers on the neo Nazis, salutes like a Nazi, and tries to set up a government program to start gathering information about everyone (like Nazis did), he must be a duck!
Where have I seen this lower face before? Ughhh... I can't quite put my finger on it.
Sometimes when 2000 AD's fascist satire character Judge Dredd was drawn by certain artists, his lower face was a fucked up lumpy mess.
