Argentine President Javier Milei has come to the defense of Elon Musk, who faced criticism for a gesture resembling a Nazi salute during Donald Trump’s inauguration. Milei dismissed the allegations as an attack by 'woke ideology,' labeling Musk as an innocent victim of misunderstanding. He expressed his stance at the World Economic Forum in Davos, calling for resistance against what he termed as the 'mental virus' of wokeness.

Musk’s gesture sparked widespread debate, with some historians suggesting it normalizes far-right radicalism. Despite this, Milei vehemently opposed the European Union's proposed social media regulations aimed at combating hate speech. He criticized such measures as censorship, defending Musk as a personal friend. The debate continues as Musk navigates the backlash, with reactions from both supporters and critics highlighting the complexities of free expression in the digital age.
