WASHINGTON – Elon Musk sparked global outrage this week after delivering a speech at President Trump’s inauguration and capping it off by throwing up a gesture that looked straight out of Berlin, circa 1940.
While Musk insists it was “just an innocent tribute to rocket pioneers,” historians are reportedly bracing for SpaceX to rename its Mars project Operation Lebensraum—with VIP seating reserved for anyone who’s read Mein Kampf
“At this point, the guy’s not even hiding it,” said historian Lisa Chen. “If he’s not careful, the Mars flag’s going to look suspiciously familiar—and the aliens won’t even bother saying hello.”
