LAMB OF GOD frontman Randy Blythe has criticized Elon Musk for making a one-armed gesture during a speech commemorating Donald Trump’s inauguration.
During a celebratory rally at the Capital One Arena in Washington, shortly after Trump was sworn in as president, Musk addressed the crowd, expressing gratitude for their role in “making it happen.” He placed his right hand over his heart, then extended the same arm straight out in front of him. Musk repeated the gesture while turning to acknowledge those seated behind him.
Yesterday (January 22), Blythe shared following message on his Instagram Stories: “It’s taken me a couple of days to wrap my head around this one. I’ve tried to consider every angle. Maybe he’s a N*zi? Maybe he’s just trolling? Maybe he’s just so socially awkward he can’t control himself? WHO KNOWS? The motherf**ker is weird. But one thing is blatantly obvious-he’s a F**KING A**HOLE.
“Does Elon Musk have Asperger’s? Oh, I definitely believe so. That doesn’t mean he’s not a COMPLETE A**HOLE- the two are not mutually exclusive, by the way. For f**k’s sake, he named his son ‘X Æ A-Xii‘- who would do that to a child other than a pure and unadulterated thoroughbred PRICK?
“I know a few people with autism- not a single one of them has ever REMOTELY reminded me of Hitler. Even if it WAS an autism-induced mistake, he refuses to cop to it, and that tells us everything we need to know. Because, you see, that’s what people with correctly calibrated moral compasses do- they admit their mistakes.
“Supposedly Musk may become an actual government employee at some point- that means we the people will be paying his salary (not that he needs it.) So as a tax paying citizen of the United States, I have a request for the 47th-President Trump, please put your KETAMINE-FUELED PET ROCKET MONKEY back in his cage so he can do things he’s suited for- obviously appearing in public is not one of them.
“Oh, and of course: F**K ALL N*ZIS.”
