It's almost as if American tabloids have learned they can generate clicks by refusing to recognize the reality of the situation.

Steve Bannon whipped up the CPAC crowd by talking about the possibility of Trump staying in office for a third term—and concluded his speech by giving a provocative gesture that resembled the controversial salute Elon Musk gave at a post-inauguration rally last month.

If you want to use language like that ... you aren't a news site .. you are a propaganda arm of corporate America who is more beholden to owners and investors than in giving straight forward news to the common people.

I hate modern "news" sites. They can't call a thing what it is. It's a Nazi salute, plain as day.

They are getting bolder and don't feel the need to hide it at all. And why should they? It's only a "controversial salute" now. Next up, racism and xenophobia rebranding to "controversial views"
