Elon Musk, billionaire adviser to President Donald Trump, leaned into the accusations that his Monday salute was a “Sieg heil” gesture with a series of trollish Nazi puns on X. “Don’t say Hess to Nazi accusations!” Musk wrote Thursday, referring to German Nazi Party leader Adolf Hitler’s deputy, Rudolf Hess.

The Anti-Defamation League slammed Elon Musk after he posted a series of Nazi-related puns on X when defending his gesture at a Trump inauguration rally that many claimed was a Nazi salute.

After the world's richest man made what fascism expert Ruth Ben-Ghiat called a "Nazi salute," one leading authority on anti-Semitism gave him the "benefit of the doubt." But any goodwill between the two seems to be gone after Musk made several references to Nazi Germany on his X account.

Elon Musk referenced Adolf Hitler and other Nazi leaders in a social media post filled with puns early Thursday.

The Nazi death camp of Auschwitz-Birkenau, which was liberated 80 years ago, is an enduring symbol of the Holocaust. Part of German dictator Adolf Hitler's "Final Solution" plan for the genocide of European Jews, the camp operated near the occupied southern Polish town of Oswiecim between June 1940 and January 1945.

Elon Musk has seemingly done the unthinkable and shown his knowledge of Nazi history is far deeper than the ADL would like the public to believe.
