I never liked Elon, but "far-right pro-nazi bar"? Are you from reddit or did I just miss something?

I think it’s a reference to the story about a barkeep kicking out a nazi from his bar even though the nazi wasn’t doing anything wrong because he believed that as soon as you tolerate one, you are a nazi bar.
He has shared content from far right/pro-Nazi accounts in the past.
I take it the fact you're not sharing any sources is because your claim is either weak, out of context, or have never checked it yourself. Do we crucify Elon because he agreed on an unrelated topic with a person he did not know was a nazi?

So you hate a celebrity for a past time. Do you get confirmation for this kind of behaviour on other websites?

No nazis, no far right.. Elon agreeing with a point a conservative politician made makes him a nazi to you. Are you even German? Are you actually familiar with AFDs talking points? I take it you're on team anti-evil and saw the target painted.

Elon is an asshole. But the media didn't come after him until he started talking sense on Ukraine. Now every loser with a complex is using it as therapy to badmouth Elon.

Digga

1.) Tino Chrupalla im Artikel erwähnt ist rechtsextrem. Merz z.B. ist konservativ. Musk kennt wahrscheinlich nicht den wichtigsten, deutschen konservativen Politiker. 2.) AfD Propaganda ist zu teilen ist das Teilen rechtsextremer Propaganda.

Bisschen raus aus der AfD Blase.

1.) Was macht Tino Chrupalla rechst-extrem? Heutzutage isst alles was einter nich mag rechts-extreem. Weil heutzutage wen du nicht übertreibst hört dich keiner. Darum muss man da die Deteils beachten. Ist Tino nurh gegen immigration oder sind da andere rechts-extreme parolen? 2.) Ich verstehe Deutsch. Das war kein Deutsch.
> Elon agreeing with a point a conservative politician made makes him a nazi to you

I can't read German - what was the point?

Physical attacks on right-leaning politicians in Germany are on the rise. Usually in the name of peaceful coexistance, as they are targeted at politicians opposing an open immigration policy.

I personally oppose an open immigration policy and I see myself more on the left in most issues. That's why the whole left / right divide is nonsense. I can oppose keeping minimum income low by employing(taking advantage of) people from poorer countries without being racist.

Calling Elon a nazi because he agreed with something a right leaning politician said is juvenile. And that's coming from a person whose family was targeted for extemination by the nazis (grandfather was an intellectual slav(dr.med.), can't have that screwing with the race theories).

Both far-right and pro-Nazi definitions have been greatly expanded to cover nearly all of the "original antifa" [1], CS Lewis is a far-right red-flag [2], and "racist" has been expanded beyond all meaning [3]. Meanwhile the Canadian parliament applauded a literal Waffen SS fighter [4], but somehow the 'Nazi-adjacent' label didn't stick to them.

Which is not to say there is no genuine merit behind your accusation, just that, without elaborating, it's impossible to know what they mean, as even just enforcing standing immigration law is far-right these days.

That seems to have been a simple screening fuck-up — probably by a relatively-young staffer — and the MP resigned his post as speaker in consequence.

Along with JRR Tolkien, Aldous Huxley, Joseph Conrad and George Orwell.
Share one wrong thing on twitter and you are literally a nazi. Amazing.
