Elon Musk set social media alight after appearing to perform a "Nazi salute" during Trump's inauguration, with X users quick to accuse the billionaire of Nazi sympathies.

The billionaire performed the unsettlingly similar action, striking the podium and lifting his flat hand into the air.

"Shortly after the inauguration", one X user commented, "Elon Musk gives the MAGA crowd a big Nazi salute on day 1 of the new American fascist oligarchy."

"I'm done here", another user exclaimed. "Just saw Musk give a Nazi salute to cheering crowds. To all the decent humans who see this shit for what it is, I'll see you on@bluesky".

Musk himself posted his speech to X, though he hasn't immediately commented on the controversy.
