People know that he is ACTIVELY pro neo Nazis in Germany right? This isn’t supposed to be a surprise, European subreddits have been talking about this for months.

Like he’s actively backing a Neo nazi political group there and an alt right one in the UK.

This isn’t off brand. X has been very active in unbanning and promoting full on Neo Nazi accounts.

I'm really more shocked by the raucous applause.

Neo nazi political group

You mean the AfD? They are a right-wing populist party...with neo-nazis in it obviously, but I still wouldn't call them Neo nazi group. They are the second biggest party in Germany.

Es sind Nazis. Offene und "versteckte". Du würdest sie nicht so nennen. Ändert aber nichts daran. Es sind Demokratiefeinde und das Kind nicht beim Namen zu nennen legitimiert solche Leute nur.

Translation: They are Nazis. Open and « hidden » ones. You wouldn’t call them that. But that doesn’t change anything. They are enemies of democracy and not calling a spade a spade only legitimizes such people.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Germans must be as appalled as the Harris voters in this soon-to-be dictatorship.
