In a conversation with AfD leader Alice Weidel on X, Musk concurred with her assertion that Adolf Hitler was a communist and pushed disinformation about migrants coming into the US.
You’ll be hard-pressed to find any conservative that will admit that Fascism is a far-right reactionary ideology (at least here in the US where I am, I’m really curious about European conservatives too).
Many of them are just playing games, but a fair number really just think fascism = bad = communism.
For what it’s worth, I think Musk is playing cryptofascist games, but it really doesn’t matter much which one is true. This is a fairly common thing in US rhetoric, but I don’t know if it’ll play in Europe.
