Here's video of Steve Bannon doing a Sieg Heil today at CPAC. It is what it is and it's what Bannon intended. Don't let yourself be gaslit.

so repulsively utterly disgusting - a media race to get more attention doing the Nazi Salute. Jewish people were put into ovens still breathing in WW2 and now it's cool to be right wing in USA.

And WHERE is the ADL?? How debased does it have to get before they will say something? Exuberance my foot. They hate Jewish people, they are embracing a right wing, antisemitic global agenda, and crickets??

Mussolini’s Fascist Party adopted the Roman salute, claiming ties to ancient Rome, though no evidence supports its historical use. The Nazis later adapted it as the Sieg Heil salute. While similar, Mussolini never called the Nazi salute the "Roman salute"—the term was used within Italian Fascism.

This is a coordinated effort. Bannon's "The Movement," aims to unite & strengthen right-wing populist parties across US & Europe. Now, with Musk's control, the military and economic power of the U.S., & Project 2025’s blueprint for authoritarian control, the pieces are falling into place.

Feb. 20th, 1939 the Nazis tried the same shit in NYC while invoking the name of Geo Washington. As they said at the time "The Bund is open to you, provided you are sincere, of good character, of White Gentile Stock, and an American Citizen imbued with patriotic zeal. Therefore: Join!" Unbelievable.

I do not believe impeachment will succeed. It will take ALL of us who are paying attention to rise up against this open evil. We must march, boycott, walk out, strike, and make noise until we cannot be ignored any longer. 11 million Americans, taking to the streets. #11Mstrong

I believe Germans now call it a Hitler salute - which is also illegal there. More powerful and more shameful to a wider swath maybe? Whatever the reason they know this stuff best. We should look to them for guidance which on its face seems nuts. But here we are. Better sort it it out stat

They know what they're doing. Mostly for shock value. A loser like Bannon knows it will get him air time. But don't be mistaken, They are NAZI CADETS through and through. This has been a festering sore in this Nation for Decades and Decades. And it's what the Boss wants.

it was a little "fuck you" for liberals. enough to be obvious to the nazis he did it but benign enough if anyone points it out they can laugh at "the overreacting libtards" and claim he was just pointing.

And Bannon’s jealous that Elon gets to be Trump’s handler for Putin. Vlad has the perfect setup now, he doesn’t have to deal with stupid, smelly Donald, and he can be the boss of the OTHER “richest man”.

A Hitler salute Is a Hitler salute Is a Hitler salute It’s not complicated. Anyone who stretches his right arm with palm down and hand/fingers tightly pointed up on a political stage during a political speech in front of an extreme right-wing audience, makes the Hitler salute.

The more vulgar,uncouth,aggressive these fascist scumbags are the louder these right wing morons cheer. Do they have any knowledge of history,do they not see their leaders and spokespeople acting as dictators? Study,learn & dismiss these traitors.

Sadly, no, they have no knowledge. I am also thinking (as a non-American) that these 100% correct messages need to be dumbed down: can’t call these fascists fascists because the MAGA masses won’t understand. They might understand Nazi, but better yet “communist”. Totally wrong, but might get through

That could be good - I don’t know, but it would grab their attention. Upside-down-world seems to be their thing? Everyday is Opposite Day and Zelenskyy is a dictator and Putin is an okay guy. (The last one thankfully seems to be too much for most of them.)

We have become Germany of 1939. Although the salute is shocking, combining that with fascism, desire to put immigrants in camps and the talk of territorial expansion makes this moment very disturbing. It’s almost like they are copying Hitlers playbook.

They’ve been running this playbook for 10 y now. First, they do something outrageous and dismiss it as a joke. This shifts the Overton window and normalizes it. Then the MAGA masses embrace it defiantly, defending it against the backlash. It’s exhausting, and liberals still have no counterstrategy.

Well said. And for people like us who can see though all this it can be very disheartening. Reminds of this bible verse I’ve heard. Ecclesiastes 1:18: “For with much wisdom comes much sorrow; the more knowledge, the more grief.” Might not be an exact quote. Not sure.

A sieg heil with very little conviction behind it. Like he was going to be able to take it back if it didn't work out for him. A nazi without the courage of his vile repugnant convictions.

I thought he hated musk and musk was bad news for trump? These people have absolutely no moral fibre even to their own values. Salute away. You're going to get stabbed in the back as you stab someone else in the back

The US is a kleptocratic Kakistocracy on it's way to becoming the greatest failed state in the history of humankind. Stop pointing out what they did or how bad they are. This is a useless endeavour & fool's game. Let's stop fucking around and start openly talk about what we're going to do about it.

Same. I am involved at the constituency level. Organizing communities and workplaces. The punditry should stop with the pearl clutching and start calling people out directly and more importantly talking about the Nuremburg style trials that should take place once they're defeated.

Serious question. Have these people not watched “The Holocaust” or do they know nothing about that they are celebrating? I mean, what possible legitimate reason could they have for toying with this? It can’t be just Jewish people this time.

[1] The Holocaust's focus on jewish people was more or less under the lens of hating them for being immigrants. Reps HAVE their immigrant enemy, so they don't "have" to target jewish people (though jewish folks are still lumped in and targeted pretty often with all of this blind hate). And-

[2] - the Holocaust wasn't targeting JUST jewish people. It was to target anyone not fitting with the description of the "ideal human." Trans folks were a huge target (familiar?), POC, the disabled. Pretty much anyone that wasn't befitting of their wack ass ideology. It's pathetic and deplorable :[

Steve Bannon: credited with honing Trump's political messaging rooted in White grievance, arch-nationalism and populist outage, reflecting his time at Breitbart. On a cover of Time Magazine as “The Great Manipulator.”. He called Musk a "parasitic illegal immigrant" ...more⬇️⬇️ bsky.app/profile/ilik...

Steve Bannon is guilty of defrauding US citizens - donors he lied to over building a southern U.S. border. Yesterday at CPAC, he rallied support for a 3rd trump term, glorified the treasonous and seditious acts of J6ers and continued a pattern of using "Heil" publicly. www.npr.org/2025/02/12/g...

There are swaths of maga that are willfully soaking the gaslighting up. The Face Eating Leopards Party somehow keeps surprising people by doing exactly what they said they were gonna do.
