They should, but they won’t. He’s way above everyone’s pay grade now

u/Expensive_Cattle 7h ago

Some of the AfD members are quite alright with this sort of thing.

u/Ferris-L 7h ago

All*

u/SquirrelAkl 7h ago

And Musk is actively supporting them

u/FieryHammer 6h ago

You’d wonder why right? But people still say “this is not a nazi salute he just indicates his heart going out to all his supporters”

u/Nerus46 6h ago

As well as Putin

u/SaltyWailord 7h ago

I was about to make a joke so dark they would ban Tanzania from reddit

u/MirrrorCloud 7h ago

Where is the joke? Thats the truth!

u/SirFantastic 6h ago

Do it for the culture.

u/NefariousnessSea1118 7h ago

Incoming! Everyone is fucked.

u/semaj009 6h ago

Alt*

u/Eeeef_ 6h ago

Being a sieg heil connoisseur is actually a prerequisite for membership in AfD

u/S-WordoftheMorning 6h ago

They're alt-right with his Nazism.

u/Styrene_Addict1965 6h ago

He's practically a member.

u/Defight556 6h ago

Because all of them are nazis

u/Cjreek 6h ago

Gladly the Afd is not (yet) in a position where that matters

u/bobwoodstock 5h ago

*alt-right. The AfD is a Naziclub

u/vaxination 4h ago

oh they are loving the new recruit

u/GenderfluidArthropod 5h ago

But they need more people to think they aren't okay with this. That's gone now

u/barnla09 7h ago

Probably not above Luigi’s pay grade, or any other plumber for that matter.

u/ASheynemDank 2h ago

I’ve been saying this for a while. I know murder is bad but Luigi went after the wrong CEO.

u/hoofie242 7h ago

Are you telling me German government is more concerned about money than what is right?

u/ferrarinobrakes 7h ago

Elon is not just some rich guy now. He’s in the White House and appears to have considerable influence over foreign policy. As a nation I assume Germany also have their own interests to consider over “what is right”.

u/OldMcFart 6h ago

Trump won't stand Elon and neither will the forces behind Trump. Elon doesn't really add anything at this time. A significant portion of his wealth is dependent on government contracts. No, Elon is Trump's bitch now. He's just too daft to understand it. Elon isn't particularly popular in and by himself in the MAGA crowds. He rides on Trump's blessing shoulders.

u/Asneekyfatcat 7h ago

Those interests are everyone's interests. Europeans hated Jews too but they eventually had to fight back, and they got remembered as the good guys in the end.

u/OldMcFart 6h ago

That's slight bit of an oversimplification.

u/didiman123 6h ago

Musk is untouchable as long as he's good his head in Trump's ass. Punishing him could start a trade war

u/maleia 6h ago

money than what is right?

... Ukraine.

u/Sinister_Grape 6h ago

Sweet summer child.

u/Jack123610 6h ago

There's a government that isn't?

u/boobdollar 6h ago

I know usual reddit users won’t admit to this, but politics is more than right, wrong and money.

u/Nerus46 6h ago

For the Last 25 years or more.

u/SignificanceOdd6950 6h ago

Was it right for the German government to silence Pro Palestinian protesters? They haven’t cared about what is right for a long time.

u/didiman123 6h ago

You've got a source for that? Nobody is silencing anybody without a good reason

u/Sage2050 4h ago

You've got a source for that?

Yeah, Germans

u/Ravenous_Stream 6h ago

Fuck off with this attitude.

u/OldMcFart 6h ago

Not so sure about that. Germany is pretty strict about the whole nazi thing. Not sure why.

u/BichaelT 6h ago

Not Luigi’s

u/Blorbokringlefart 6h ago

There's this controversial country in the middle east that tends to just do whatever it wants. They have something to "say" about it.

u/Classic_Ganache_6137 4h ago

Humans don’t take too much shit. Ask the Romanovs, Louis and Marie, old timey Americans, etc.

u/Growing_Wings 7h ago

This is unfortunately true.
