    Elon’s an attention-seeking cretin that will say or do anything to remain relevant. This is equal parts dangerous and desperate

    I find it depressing that not wanting migrants to drown, is framed as ‘support for migrants’ and somehow left wing.

    If a suspected rapist was drowning in a pond, I’d expect the police to save them, then jail them. Leaving people to die without any right to a trial or to be heard, is simply sociopathic.

    It’s perfectly possible to have a hardline anti-migration policy, which doesn’t involve allowing thousands of people to drown.

      3 billionaires and young adult vs 300 migrants. The world was mad at us for not caring about 4 billionaires, not themselves for not caring about 300 migrants.

      In concept, sure, it’s possible. In practice, as we see here, the sorts of people who have hardline anti-immigration opinions tend to do so because they see those migrants as being less than fully human.

    The AfD are neonazi scum. Musk should be sold per pound to feed the poor in eastern Europe if he’s so fond of the AfD’s fake rhetoric.

    Downvote Musk spam. He will say/do anything to stay in the 24 hour news cycle.

    The billionaire doesn’t need your help ensuring him and his businesses stay in the headlines every day. Don’t be a useful idiot.

    I’ll be genuinely surprised if we ever get to see another news title about Elon that isn’t “Elon does/says some unimaginably stupid/shitty thing”.

    fun fact: this far right extremist party is also the second strongest party in germany, with the strongest being very closely aligned to their values!

      That is not true - they are not currently the second strongest.

      there are some polls where this party is seen as a strong contender for future elections.

        no, not currently. I worded that wrong. They’re gonna be the second strongest party according to polls and general vibe of the country rn. The fascists are coming back, and they’re coming back strong. Attacks against jewish and queer people have risen rapidly. Fuck, even i’ve been the victim of a fascist attack.

      That’s not very accurate, the current chancellor and Germany in general are very left-leaning outside the very catholic regions.

        the german government right now is a horrible neoliberal mess trying to greenwash their actions

        they are not left at all

        if they were, we wouldn’t need Last Generation blocking roads.

        The chancellor’s party is center-left in the typical European social democrat way, he himself is more of a moderate. But the current coalition polls at around 40%, so calling Germany very left-leaning is a very optimistic statement.
