    I wonder what would happen if he learned that the AfD is basically Germanys “Republicans”, and considered being a bunch of f-ing Nazis that are being observed by the police and bordering getting named illegal and dissolved by the law.

    *Knows nothing about either*

    “I don’t think there is a single difference”

    It’s the same logic he applied when he said “[Teslas] are basically semi-sentient robots on wheels” when he couldn’t get them to drive themselves in a purpose-built tunnel?

      Yeah for elected people, that’s why billionaires are bad, they are not up for reelection. They stick like a bad chewing gum.

    Elon Musk:

    “DEMOCRAT BAAAD”

    “AfD = Democrats”

    “I suppprt AfD”

    So… Elon Musk supporting Democrats by transitive property of mathematics…

    But doesn’t he hate democrats?

      He says that he supported the Obama era democrats. The dems right now are probably too “woke” for him now.

      Isn’t it more likely he’s just lying? I mean, is it really even wise to believe he’s genuinely being honest?

      Sorry if I come off as combative, I just legit don’t understand why anyone would believe he’s not mainly running propaganda for his very misinformed base and instead criticize him for lying/being wrong about yet another thing

      Also, what should our messaging be to folks that are not on twitter and are simply ignorant of what the hell’s going on? I really don’t think making fun of a propaganda mouthpieces works as well as having our own propaganda network(s) to support our political strategy/platform.

        Yes he is, he’s using “the big lie” technique.

        Just spout the exact opposite, like the german neo nazis are like the american democrats (win win eh) so “I didn’t do anything wrong”.

        Politicians have whole think tanks to help them coming up with bs like this so that for example they can just shrug off being pro neo-nazi and try to link democrats to neo-nazis.

        And people still are: “Trump is so stupid he thinks Haitians eats cats and dogs!!”

    Okay, let’s assume he’s right. Why does he suddenly support the Democrats in other countries only?

    Ah so now he supports democratic policy does he? No? Talking bullshit again? Yes? Is he just a desperate little baby boy hungering for the approval of anyone who will listen, because his parents didn’t love him? Yesssssssssss.
