No, I'm saying she's not an historian specialized in Nazi Germany.
You don't need to be to see it was not one but two nazi salutes
You don't, but her opinion is useless when all experts already agree that's what it was.
It's like asking actors their political opinion. Who gives a fuck what they think? They're actors, not political analysts.
And yet, here you are with your opinion that no one asked for. Are you seeing how this works yet?
So you're saying my opinion is just as important as hers, she gets to share hers, I get to share mine, will The Guardian write an article about my opinion now? Are you seeing how this works yet?
No, I’m saying she is relevant to the story. You aren’t. Yet here you are trying to erase her from it, while adding yourself to it- via the comments.
Yell all you want. She’s still going to have her say in legitimate news articles, while you’re relegated to ranting about it in forums located in the far reaches of the internet.
Musk was absent from her life, the only reason people talk about her is because she's her daughter even though she doesn't know him any better than you and me.
And again, her opinion on what constitutes a Nazi salute or not is irrelevant, just like a hockey player's opinion on climate change isn't.
…. And you are?
A random person on the Internet, just like her, but my opinion isn't on The Guardian's website.
lol… your obsession with this has reached a comical level of absurdity.
