      This sort of stuff felt like reaching until I witnessed it myself.

      For those who don’t know: X is like a swastica, and it’s the 88th ascii character, H is the 8th letter, 88 -> HH -> “hail Hitler”.

      Yes. I do feel like Adam West’s Batman.

        I haven’t seen evidence of X as a dogwhistle, though I would suspect if I did it would be like the OK sign, which was intentionally used to make antifascists look crazy

        I’m not saying he’s not a nazi obsessed with the letter, both are true. But they don’t feel related and I haven’t seen non-circumstantial evidence predating Musk being a fascist.

          I think the Nazi influence goes back pretty far for him. I heard that his grandparents were neo Nazis in Canada.
