Steve Bannon whipped up the CPAC crowd by talking about the possibility of Trump staying in office for a third term—and concluded his speech by giving a provocative gesture that resembled the controversial salute Elon Musk gave at a post-inauguration rally last month.

If you are at an event where someone on stage gives a Hitler salute and that person is not dragged off by security and kicked out, you are at a Nazi rally.

Or a slumber party at Steve Bannon’s house. Or is that still a Nazi rally? Probably is huh?

And... if you remain at that rally you are, at best, a Nazi sympathizer.

@jennakendrick.bsky.social

There’s a word for Nazi sympathizers. Nazi.

I recently rewatched-and-finished The Man in the High Castle and yeah man, that just didn't look like MAGA to me.

@matthewbest.bsky.social

Acceptable exception: you have a rifle and are waiting for the head Nazi to take the stage.

That'll work better if you leave the crowd to take a position in a window or on a roof of a nearby building.

I never get the question: "Merien, how do I know if I'm at a Nazi rally?". Mainly because people know. People do not find themselves at Nazi rallies by accident. But in case you're wondering, here are some clues.

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...

NGL, someone once asked me why I liked a certain band and I responded, "A Nazi jumped on stage to give a salute, and the band beat the shit out of him."

@lydz.eurosky.social

I love those kind of bands. Who is it?

@lydz.eurosky.social

Did you not hear it was at CPAC? That IS a Nazi rally now.

TBF if security would have but doesn't get to do it bc the audience beat them to it, that's OK too.

Seems like a good place to set on fire and block some emergency exits. :)

@callidusdominus.bsky.social

Yes. These people will point to their support of Netanyahu's war crimes as 'proof' that they can't be Nazis, but they are doing Nazi things. They are Nazis.

@billnemacheck.bsky.social

It's been a Nazi event for years.

@erin6.bsky.social

And if you stay silent and don’t leave that event, then you are a Nazi.

@andrewbrook.bsky.social

The word “out” is superfluous in that sentence.

@doctorsynth.bsky.social

It is also acceptable for the audience to rush the stage and punch all the Nazis they see.

@hummeltodd75.bsky.social

It's not even Bannon doing it which of course is gross, but as soon as he does it, the giant cheer is what is truly disturbing.

Hang tight. The US is experiencing some technical difficulties, but we will be back. And hopefully put these criminals in prison where they belong.

Many, including some members of the Commission, would now argue that the South African 'Truth and Justice' process, wrongly prioritised reconciliation over justice.
