Controversial video of Adin Ross
An X user by the name @DornerClipz first posted the controversial video earlier this year but it gained traction just a few days ago. The video shows Ross placing his right hand on his chest before eventually raising it above his shoulder. His actions mirrored Elon Musk’s controversial gesture during Donald Trump’s inauguration earlier this year.
The video also shows a person filming Ross, touching his hand, while other fans extended their hands towards him. The incident reportedly took place during a casual meet-and-greet with fans, where Ross was interacting with a crowd. According to some viewers, his gesture was unintentional; however, many others believed that it was deliberate.

The original video was labeled “controversial arm gesture.” However, many netizens have accused Ross of performing the infamous Hitler N*zi salute. One social media user criticized the softened language, stating:
‘controversial arm gesture’. N*zi salute. Just say N*zi salute. Oh my god, stop changing the f**king meaning and erasing history.”
Another user exclaimed:
History doesn’t need a rebrand. Call it what it is.”
Meanwhile, other users were of the other opinion, stating:
Did he stomp his feet and click his boots and say SIEG HEIL ??
No??? OK… then it’s not a fucking Nazi salute you MORON !! Not everything is directly connected to the Big Bad Hitler.. stop pretending it is you fucking psychopath.”

Adin Ross is not the first streamer accused of imitating the infamous N*zi salute. Just last month, a Twitch streamer by the name of Katchii faced a seven-day ban for mimicking Musk’s gesture. Katchii performed the salute during Emiru’s Chinese New Year stream.
