Sorry to piss in your Cheerios Asher, but I have not seen the video, only the still like in the meme above. Using just those it sure looks like they are the same and also Musk's is posted by Trump haters to make him look bad. Post the video link so I can judge for myself.

I'll go on record saying I don't think he intended to make a Nazi salute. Did it look like one? Maybe. But I think calling him a Nazi because of this is a bit outrageous. This is SNL skit material not a serious political issue.

Searching Google I came up with this AI interpritation of Musk's gesture.
"Hand over heart to hand spread out forward" signifies a gesture where someone initially places their hand over their chest, near the heart, as a symbol of sincerity or honesty, then extends their hand palm forward, often indicating openness, commitment, or a willingness to share information openly

This lines up with Easyriders explanation of it.

This must be what the other famous people were doing in my image.

You know, under some circumstances, I might be willing to give Musk the benefit of the doubt. However, if you know his background coming from South Africa, I might think twice. He comes from a wealthy family and was raised in Pretoria, a heavily Boer city. It was the Boers who leaned heavily into apartheid and ran the country until apartheid could no longer be defended. Many Boers sympathized with the Nazis, although I have no idea whether his family was among them. Nevertheless, I would have to think that Elon knew the history and had to know what that salute would look like to many.
