Summary

Trump supporters are calling to defund PBS after it reported that Elon Musk’s post-inauguration gesture resembled a Nazi salute.

PBS described it as “similar to the ‘Sieg Heil’ used by Nazis,” sparking conservative backlash, with figures like Tomi Lahren and Rep. Andy Biggs accusing PBS of propaganda.

Musk denied the claim and criticized “legacy media” and Wikipedia for bias.

Calls to defund PBS align with longstanding conservative goals and plans like Project 2025, which includes eliminating public media funding under a new Trump administration.

    Oh but they’ll still take direction from the party and alter their reality again. “That wasn’t a Nazi Salute! The left are all morons and liars!” “Oh Trump says we’re taking it back from the Nazis… so it was a Nazi Salute, but in a patriotic way!” “Oh, Trump says Hitler was a historical hero… SEIG HEIL!”

      Exactly, just like Jan 6thers were antifa trying to make Trump look bad, but he just pardoned all of them and the followers celebrated…

      It’s that Sartre quote about anti-semites and how they don’t actually have any real arguments or principles and will always say whatever to win.
