Elon Musk's behavior during the Trump inauguration ceremony has been reported in multiple articles. The common thread among these reports is that Musk gave a series of gestures that have been interpreted as fascist-style salutes.

Olaf Scholz
Social Democratic Party of Germany
1. We have the freedom of speech in Europe and in Germany.
Humza Yousaf
Scottish National Party
1. If he wants people to quit making comparisons with Hitler, he should probably stop throwing Nazi salutes.
CNN
1. It's a salute. It was quick. I think our viewers are smart and they can take a look at that, but it certainly was, it's not something that you typically see at American political rallies.
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
Democratic Party
1. Just to be clear, you are defending a Heil Hitler salute that was performed and repeated for emphasis and clarity.
Jerry Nadler
Democratic Party
1. This abhorrent gesture has no place in our society and belongs in the darkest chapters of human history. I urge all of my colleagues to unite in condemning this hateful gesture for what it is: antisemitism.
2. I never imagined we would see the day when what appears to be a Heil Hitler salute would be made behind the Presidential seal.
Elon Musk
SpaceX
1. Can you imagine how awesome it would be when American astronauts take American flags to another planet.
2. I'm going to work my a** off for you guys.
3. It is thanks to you that the future of civilization is assured. Thanks to you. We're gonna have safe cities, finally safe cities. Secure borders, sensible spending. Basic stuff. And we're gonna take 'Doge' to Mars.
4. This is a socially awkward autistic man's wave to the crowd where he says 'my heart goes out to you.'
5. Since legacy media propaganda is considered a 'valid' source by Wikipedia, it naturally simply becomes an extension of legacy media propaganda!
Anti-Defamation League
1. In this moment, all sides should give one another a bit of grace, perhaps even the benefit of the doubt, and take a breath.
2. This is a new beginning. Let's hope for healing and work toward unity in the months and years ahead.
Jimmy Wales
Wikipedia
1. I think Elon is unhappy that Wikipedia is not for sale.
2. I would say the decline of trust in journalism and politics is quite severe, which then, in some cases, translates into people feeling more angry and lost.
3. We just plug away, trying to be neutral, trying to be clear.
