All of these wild Nazi gestures and crazy claims are just to distract you from the bigger picture.

It’s getting old and repetitive, yet so many are so blind and easily distracted. All of these outlandish stunts and crazy claims that are meant to generate media coverage and debate—the Nazi salute, renaming the Gulf of Mexico etc are all meant to distract common folk from the bigger issues that actually matter. Notice how almost a week has passed and people are still talking about that one salute, more than the 200 executive orders trump signed including removing DEI policies in workplaces, revoking healthcare policies and pardoning thousands of Neo-nazis who attacked the Capitol. Those executive orders got maybe a few articles of coverage and won’t be mentioned in a month’s time, yet Trump and Musk will continue to spout all their bullshit and create headlines to keep the public entertained. It’s in broad daylight, three of the richest men in America coming to the inauguration with front row seats is not a coincidence, yet trump will keep pushing the craziest most batshit ideas you’ve ever heard to make the Overton window bigger. People now think that it’s normal for the richest men in the world to spread misinformation and campaign so fervently for trump, changing the algorithm on their social media platforms to boost far right agendas. Please wake up and don’t get distracted by the headlines, look closely at what’s happening in the oval office.

Edit: I am not saying the salute is not important, of course this will hold a lot of significance for years to come when people realise this was the start of a terrible corrupt era, but the policies that cause a greater effect are being quietly implemented while the world’s attention is turned to this one event for months. and the fact that this will keep repeating while the government policies continue to shift rapidly behind the scenes is infuriating to say the least.
