    The controversy arose after Musk made a straight-armed gesture during the January 20, 2025, inauguration, which some perceived as a Nazi salute. The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) described it as an “awkward gesture” rather than a salute. Musk has previously been criticized for sharing white supremacist memes and theories on X, which sparked accusations of antisemitism.
