'Extremists' embrace Musk's straight-arm gesture no matter what he meant

Quick Summary:

Right-wing extremists are celebrating Elon Musk's straight-arm gesture during a speech on Monday, although his intention wasn't totally clear and some hate watchdogs are saying not to read too much into it.

Then he slapped his hand on his chest, extended his arm straight outward and upward with his palm facing downwards.

Many social media users noticed that the gesture looked like a Nazi salute.
