Is Elon acting purely to win back my support after he was crushed by my reporting of his Path of Exile 2 gamer fraud scandal?
It would seem so.
And it’s working…!
RT:
Tech billionaire Elon Musk has made a surprise address at an Alternative for Germany (AfD) campaign event, telling supporters of the right-wing party that Germans should not “focus on past guilt.”
The AfD kicked off its election campaign with a rally in the city of Halle on Saturday, where party leader Alice Weidel promised to deliver hardline anti-immigration policies and end Berlin’s military and financial aid to Kiev.
However, before Weidel took the stage, Musk addressed the 4,500-strong crowd by video link, urging them to reject multiculturalism and to “be proud of German culture [and] German values.”
“Children should not be guilty of the sins of their parents, let alone their great grandparents,” he said, in an apparent reference to Germany’s Nazi past. “There is too much focus on past guilt, and we need to move beyond that,” he added.
That is pretty hardcore. Seriously.
The Jewish narrative for the last 80 years has been that all Germans are forever responsible for turning all of those woke kikes into lampshades and soap.
I gotta give it to Elon on this one. Nothing will ever erase the shame of his gamer fraud, which was much worse than the Holocaust, but he may yet reclaim some sliver of human dignity if he continues on a path of promoting Nazism.
Musk threw his support behind the AfD in December, calling the right-wingers the only party capable of “saving Germany” and praising its anti-immigration stance, while calling Chancellor Olaf Scholz an “incompetent fool.” The SpaceX CEO hosted a livestream with Weidel earlier this month on his X platform, reiterating that “only AfD can save Germany.”
The tech tycoon drew controversy last week, however, when he performed what his critics said was a Nazi salute while addressing supporters of US President Donald Trump in Washington DC. Scholz responded by declaring that freedom of speech in Germany does not extend to “supporting extreme-right positions.”
After Musk’s address, Weidel called on her supporters to “Make Germany Great Again,” a nod to Trump’s “Make America Great Again” campaign slogan.
This context definitely gives context to the Hitler salute he kept doing at the inauguration.
By the way, he obviously did that on purpose. The people defending him are saying “he touched his heart first,” but you do that when you do a Nazi salute.
I support Nazi salutes, so I’m not attacking him over it, but the defense of it is ridiculous and he should have just said “yes, uh, I did that because I think, uh, this, this, this whole obsession with Nazis being, you know, the bad guys, has gotten, it’s gotten really silly, and I think that like we need, we need to reevaluate these claims.”
Regardless: Heil Hitler.
