Summary
Elon Musk expressed support for Germany’s far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party on X, stating “Only the AfD can save Germany.”
Party leader Alice Weidel welcomed his endorsement, urging followers to review her criticisms of German politics.
The AfD, polling at 19% ahead of February’s federal election, is officially under scrutiny as an extremist group by German authorities.
Musk has previously questioned the party’s “far-right” label. Controversy surrounds the AfD, including links to a meeting discussing deportation of migrants.
I don’t understand this, while it’s obviously bad to have this situation, isn’t this the logical conclusion of the American political system?
Lobbying has been a thing for decades, isn’t the logical conclusion that we get tyrants infiltrating the government?
Clearly America has been working towards this for a long time.
