The salute is not racist in itself. But since it is a representation of the Nazi regime, which stood for a racist ideology, doing it now invokes the feelings of anti-Semitism. Much like how the swastika is, in fact, an ancient Indian symbol representing life, its use now has been bastardized by Nazi Germany. The salute is not racist in itself.

The Nazi Salute has two origins, both of which are disputed at times.Number one: The most plausible theory:Adolf Hitler modelled the Nazi Salute after ancient Roman soldiers, who would jut their arms forward in the same way as a salute to their superiors.Number two: The other theory:Hitler took the fascist arm raise from Benito Mussolini (Commandant of the Italian Army), who invented it because he had a fear of handshaking.
The Nazi salute is an extended arm with an open hand, raised enough to show the palm.

Start of WW2. Kill people for no valid reason (racist). No democracy and accused others for something that has not done. (Burning Parliament was done by Nazi, but they accused the communists.)
Heil is a form of greeting. So it was natural to use this term to greet Adolf Hitler. The Nazi stiff-arm salute that was used when saying this originated from the ole Roman salute. Hitler may have adopted this from his first visit with Mussolini in Italy.
People wave their arms around for emphasis without necessarily doing a Nazi salute. There is no doubt that Barack Obama has no sympathy for Nazism.
Yes that is the correct spelling of salute.Some example sentences are:I salute you for knowing how to spell that word.The soldier forgets to salute his commanding officer.The Nazi salute is illegal in Germany and those caught doing it are jailed.Remember to salute the Queen as she passes.
Its just military practice. Most if not all military have a salute.
Billy Idol has admitted before to use Nazi symbols for 'shocking fashion'. So yes, it is the Nazi salute.

No, but if a public figure does it, they will generally be accused of misconduct.

Socialism is not a racist concept, but there must surely be socialists who are racists. It is also worth noting that the official name of the Nazi Party was National Socialism. Sometimes a person who describes himself as a socialist is actually a nazi.
Not really because Nazi groups like neo-Nazis are at its roots quite racist and are against black people.
yes there is one as a matter a fact. Very racist.
This was a Nazi salute that means literally "hail, Victory." It is profoundly offensive to use this salute in almost all contexts other than documentary or historical research contexts.
