Summary
Elon Musk is expected to host Alice Weidel, leader of Germany’s far-right AfD party, for an online chat on his platform, X, ahead of Germany’s Feb. 23 national election.
Musk, who endorsed the anti-immigration, anti-Islamic AfD in December, has drawn criticism for supporting far-right and anti-establishment movements in Europe.
German leaders, including Chancellor Olaf Scholz, have condemned Musk’s involvement, calling it undemocratic.
The AfD, labeled extremist by German security, has been isolated by mainstream parties, but Musk’s endorsement has sparked controversy and debate over his political influence.
These conmen know that any publicity is good publicity.
He’s the same as Trump and West. All of them say controversial shit that they may or may not believe just to get people talking about it to further their brand.
In this case, it’s clear as day that musk is cozying up to conservatives because he believes they will make him more money in the end.
