As American journalists start writing about the Nazi salute that Elon Musk just gave twice on camera, it's essential that they contextualize it for readers as part of a years-long course of publicly embracing antisemitic politicians and causes.

They better not dare pretend this was a one-off event.

Yes! And take breaks as you need to. Your community will take the watch.
RESIST.
Don't quit.
Don't stop fighting.
Don't obey in advance.
Don't stop calling them out.
Keep raising your voices as loudly as you can.
Keep organizing your friends, family, everyone.
Keep supporting orgs that are leading the fight.

RESIST.

2) Dems say, "Geez that thing Trump said was outrageous/stupid/dangerous"

3) Fox News hits Dems for "melting down" while minimizing the outrageous/stupid/dangerous thing Trump said
