Summary
Elon Musk published a controversial opinion piece in Germany’s Welt am Sonntag supporting the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party, prompting the newspaper’s opinion editor to resign.
Musk denied the AfD’s extremism, citing its leader’s same-sex relationship, and reiterated his claim that “only the AfD can save Germany.”
The AfD, classified as a suspected extremism case by Germany’s intelligence agency, has surged in polls ahead of February elections.
Musk’s support drew backlash, with critics highlighting the AfD’s anti-immigration stance and calls to leave the EU.
Maybe someone needs to put German on the H1B visa news. The AfD is dangerous and, a distraction from the class war.
They’re very much part of the class war. Who do you think finances these fucks?
Oh, I not saying they aren’t part of it. I’m saying they distract Germans with fear and bigotry of immigrants. That’s the distraction I’m talking about mainly.
