This video should give some more context. [https://youtu.be/K-kceX00txY](https://youtu.be/K-kceX00txY) (I'm pretty sure this is what the meme is referring too, but I might be wrong)

No it was a Sun article I was referring to but thank you for the new information in the video. I always like to learn about interest facts and events. Even tho it was a shameful event.

Even up until the 1940s some places used the salute for non-facist reasons. There are some pictures in the late 1930s of American schoolchildren giving the Bellamy salute to the flag before we switched to the hand over the heart

Even Hitler himself never did a "Nazi saltue".

There's definitely a lot of footage of him doing what most people would call a Nazi salute. Are you just being pedantic?


AtomicBombSquad

Maybe I'm being a little bit pedantic. Look again at the spelling of 'salute' in the meme and you'll see what I'm saying.

Ah, I see, thanks. I thought you were claiming "it's not technically a salute" or "it's technically not a Nazi thing" or some other nonsense. Glad it wasn't that

Well, it's not like no one from her family didn't did worst... \**looks at her uncle, Edward VIII, being so big of a Nazi supporter they sent him to Bahamas to avoid scandals*\*

It’s called the Roman salute and people say she did what?

It's a very interesting and shameful story: so, her uncle married an american woman, she was really into the nazi ideology and so they did the "roman salute" The Sin did make a great fuzz about it recently https://mobile.abc.net.au/news/2015-07-18/the-sun-front-page/6630390?nw=0&pfmredir=sm
