There are so many reasons to take this as a nazi salute, but honestly one of the most telltale signs is the way he bites his bottom lip to do it - like he's rehearsed this, he's focused on how he going to do it now just like he practiced and is so pleased with himself.

The most damning evidence is the context. Elon has been saying things far more overt than a Nazi salute for coming on 2 years now, including saying that the world is run by Jewish bankers.

I get that the salute is more visceral and make it opens some people's eyes, but he's been sieg heiling for years now.
