AfD Gets Endorsement from Elon Musk Before Elections
ai generated text
Elon Musk has expressed his support for the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party through various means, including endorsing a video by right-wing influencer Naomi Seibt and reposting it. This move has been met with criticism from the German health minister, who described it as "undignified and highly problematic." The AfD party has been known to promote xenophobic and revisionist ideologies, and most large European hard-right parties have distanced themselves from it. Despite this, Musk's endorsement has been seen as a significant boost to the party's campaign.
The Alternative for Germany is indeed the one and only alternative for our country; our very last option.
Yes! You are perfectly right! Please also have a look into my interview on President Trump, how socialist Merkel ruined our country, how the Soviet European Union destroys the countries [sic] economic backbone and malfunctioning Germany!
It is very disturbing, the way in which the platform X, which I use very intensively myself, is increasingly being used to spread the political positions and goals of Mr Musk.
I was a bit surprised because we usually hear that Elon Musk is this gifted wunderkind, but when I hear these comments, I have to doubt that.
It is threatening, irritating and unacceptable for a key figure in the future US government to interfere in the German election campaign.
While migration control is crucial for Germany, the AfD stands against freedom, business — and it's a far-right extremist party. Don't rush to conclusions from afar. Let's meet.
Elon, I've initiated a policy debate inspired by ideas from you and Milei.
It remains the case that he's not really contributing to anything policy-wise, and that he doesn't really know how political discussions work in Germany.
We are very close to the Americans, but now bravery is required towards our friend. We object to interference in our election campaign.
We have freedom of speech here. That also applies to multimillionaires. Freedom of speech also means that you're able to say things that aren't right and do not contain good political advice.
