Elon Musk is backing the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD), triggering an outcry in Berlin in the run-up to a critical snap election.
“Only the AfD can save Germany,” the billionaire X owner wrote on the platform on Friday in the latest of a series of endorsements of European far-right parties.
Musk has recently supported European populist-right politicians in increasingly clear terms, including Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloniand Reform UK leader Nigel Farage. Earlier this week, Farage boasted that Musk is “right behind” him — and raised the prospect that the tech tycoon would financially back his Reform UK party.
Musk needs to die. He’s the single most dangerous person on the planet, moreso than Trump himself or even Putin.
I hope some brave schmuck close to him is prepared to sacrifice everything. I would do it myself if there was any realistic chance of success.
And before this disappears due to “advocating violence” - he and his ilk don’t just advocate violence but actually visit it upon us, on a daily basis. Fuck off with your righteousness. Tyrants should never be suffered.
I doubt he’s more dangerous than Putin because he seems to be Putin’s puppet, not the other way around. He is however far more popular in the west
I’m still hoping for him to OD on ketamine.
That would be an amazing death. I wouldn’t wish him to die so kindly. I don’t mind if Musk would bleed out in the streets or something. And I’m against killing people in general, I don’t see how that could benefit anyone… With some exceptions. Like Hitler, Putin, Musk, etc. But to be clear, I don’t have plans and I don’t want to push others to do something… I’m just saying I wouldn’t mind.
Also, OD on ket is really hard to do.
By itself sure, but add a hot tub and boom!
I’ve been K-holing in a hot tub, still hard AF. Maybe if he would do ketamine and drive a cybertruck it would work but that would endanger others. It does sound like something he would do, take as much people down with him.
Chandler from friends tried harder than you then friend
I seriously don’t understand what happened there. I think there must have been other factors in play as well, I guess we’ll never know. John Oliver showed even coroners can be a scam in the US.
It’s really hard to OD on Ketamine. More likely he either will or has already developed K bladder… which is not fun and permanent
I doubt he does more ketamine then me, and I have no bladder issues (tested). You’d need to be addicted or have a weak bladder or something to get it, otherwise you’re fine. Just make sure you drink enough liquids. AFAIK he’s just a recreational user, just like me.
He apparently takes massive amounts of the stuff at parties.
He is like the prime goal for any Luigi out there.
Hard no. Musk needs to lose his power by losing his popularity. Anyone he backs, verbally or financially, needs to see it as a net negative for their prospects. He needs to be vilified and demonized for his behavior.
Should he be assassinated? No.
Like that isn’t already happening for years. Maaaaany hate him, make fun of him, call out his lies, deceptions, scams, crimes. But it’s like a religion. There are enough people who simply don’t want to see the truth. And the people who can put him behind bars are on his payroll or under his dome of power. So as much as I’m against assassination in general, I think there are some cases where sadly it may be the only option to stop a tyrant.
I dunno, I actually understand this take. Unlike the UHC CEO, Musk’s swift departure from existence would actually have positive effects for the world. He’s not just some benign CEO that can be easily replaced by one of thousands of like-minded sycophants, Musk is an actual dangerous force who individually holds a lot of power.
Right now, it’s getting easier and easier to give serious consideration to the “kill baby Hitler with a time machine” thought experiment.
That was a brilliant read! Thanks.
At this point, I think it’s too late for that. It’s time to start looking at French history for inspiration.
I don’t really see any real argument against it in your comment…
oh fuck off, every single bit of progress you enjoy from history had people willing to commit violence behind it.
let’s vote musk out!!!
With these people it’s, the more the hordes hate you, more status you’ve got.
There’s only one solution; assassination!
Musk is a real danger to the world. He is throwing his essentially infinite resources behind fascist politicians everywhere he can. We are looking at likely fascist takeovers in Germany, France and the UK, as well as the USA and a swing to the hard right in Canada. Other European countries have already gone fascist. It would be like the 1930s and 40s except that some powerful countries still fought against fascism then. Now it seems to be taking over everywhere.
Musk is a significant force in this movement. We urgently need an effective popular movement against billionaires.
Musk isn’t acting alone because he doesn’t directly have much money.
Let us not lose sight of the banks that offer wealthy individuals zero interest loans against hyper pumped stock portfolios that are only worth a mere fraction of their on paper value.
Musk is absolutely a villain but we also have a fucked up system ready to empower a replacement. They’re both problems.
Let’s crash some stocks then…
He. Is. A. Nazi.
His dad recently saying how proud he is that elon is finally embracing his family’s political leanings and then immediately talking about there’s a long history of Nazis in the family is just hilarious
His dad is even worse than he is. Which is pretty amazing.

Nice, well done, I was already triggering on how text was formulated.
We’re still not even a single day into Trump being president.
You mean Musk being president.
We really need to do something about him.
Any ideas?
He wanted to go to Mars right? I say we give him any means so he can.
Hopefully Germany sees how shit he is at anything and rejects any party influenced by him.
Ah, yes, the dealbreaker for any German politician: inefficient bureaucracy.
Dealing with the German bureaucracy when I don’t even speak the language is exactly why I haven’t explored getting German citizenship even though I technically am eligible. The technicality involves Nazi Germany and my Jewish grandfather being declared stateless by them, but not becoming a UK citizen until after my father was born.
One day maybe I’ll work to untangle that mess, but it sounds like a nightmare.
