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.
Nazis welcome Nazi supporting Nazi. Oh wonder.
Not that easy though. AfD party got support from Russia and China as well. I wonder, how they clean out this mess.
So they have support from a fascist country and from a fascist country cosplaying as communist. Doesn't change much.
Nazis who cosplay as patriots welcome support from sources that want to weaken EU and (by extension) Germany
Militanz.
For anyone wondering about the far-right "label". The AfD among other things has multiple people in their ranks who used to be member of outlawed Nazi terror organizations. One of their most popular politician, Björn Höcke lost a defamation case, because the court ruled that there is enough indicators that calling him a fascist is a factual statement rather than an insult. He also most likely wrote articles in the journal of the former NPD, now called Heimat (homeland) under the pseudonym Landolf Ladig, where he shows his classic, as in Hitler classis, nationalist ideology. The NPD was ruled to be an enemy of the constitution a few years back but was not forbidden because the ECJ ruled that forbidding unconstitutional parties requires them to also be politically relevant.
Don't forget about Malsack-winkelmann who sat as a member of Parliament for the AgD before being arrested for planning an armed insurrection in 2022.

Wann fliegt er eigentlich endlich zum Mars? Oder hat er sich im Ketamin Wahn für ne AFD WG in Sachsen umentschieden?
