It has been maddening how corporate media has been trying to tell us it was anything but a Nazi salute. I'm reminded of the Star Trek episode Chain of Command Part II, "There are four lights!"

I studied Star Trek at university, taught the history of Star Trek on two continents and wrote for major newspapers about Star Trek. I am internet famous for fact-checking chuds on the history, ideology and policy of the Federation.

There are four lights.
