Sept. 30 (UPI) – Elon Musk is under fire after publicly backing a far-right political party in Germany, suggesting the current government should not be re-elected over its position on the current migrant crisis in Europe.

    It means exactly the same thing.

    He endorses a demonstrably bigoted right-authoritarian party - specifically for its attitudes toward minorities and foreign nationals. Their policy on immigration is “don’t.” Their stated goals involve mass deportation. They explicitly claim “the concept of multicultural society has failed” and “Islam does not belong in Germany.” Naturally they’re also big mad about women being equal and gay people existing. They were always extreme nationalists, and then a couple years ago their old leadership split off because their own party was starting to scare them, and as a direct result these German-nationalist Christian-supremacist anti-minority nutjobs got even more blatant.

    They’re Nazis. He endorses Nazis. He is loudly and openly throwing in his lot, with Nazis.

        “Proving me wrong only pushes people toward my side,” said yet another predictable CHUD.

        God damn, do I wish you people cared about words.

              No deep opinion required. It’s a fact. He did not admit to being a Nazi.

              Feel free to step back and consider the impact you have when blatantly lying about what someone else said. Especially when it comes to one of the most horrific organizations in human history.

                His words amount to admitting he’s a Nazi.

                That’s what his words mean.

                Especially when it comes to one of the most horrific organizations in human history.

                Yeah, wouldn’t it be fucking awful if a modern political party stood for the same things as that organization? What kind of asshole would promote those bigots?
