San Francisco, Jan 24 (UNI) More than 100 Reddit communities have banned users from posting links to X in protest at owner Elon Musk's controversial arm gesture at a rally celebrating Donald Trump's return to office.
The billionaire twice extended his arm out straight as he thanked the crowd for "making it happen."
Critics, including some historians, said it was a Nazi salute - Musk has dismissed that, saying comparisons with Hitler were "tired" and "dirty tricks."
