In response to Elon Musk's televised Nazi-style salute, various subreddits have started banning links to his platform X. The online backlash has gained traction across multiple non-political communities. While Musk evades accountability, individuals speaking out against his actions face serious consequences, as shown by a meteorologist who was fired for her criticism. This has led to increased solidarity among Reddit users, who are mobilizing to hold Musk accountable and challenge the normalization of hate symbols online through collective moderation efforts.
On Tuesday, members of major sports-centered subreddits, like r/hockey, started asking their moderators whether they would consider banning users from sharing links to Elon Musk's X, the Nazi-infested social platform.
Musk continues to evade accountability, while those who publicly denounce the gesture-including a Milwaukee meteorologist who got fired for criticizing the Tesla CEO on her personal Instagram account-may fear retribution.
