As part of the inauguration ceremony of the new President of the United States Donald Trump this Monday, Elon Musk made a strange gesture at the end of his speech given to the crowd gathered in Washington.

In Austria, for example, a Tesla Model 3 parked in the street was tagged this week with a large red swastika on the front hood and a cross on the windshield, as can be seen on the social network Reddit .
