Musk's joking minimization of the Nazi past and his cozying up to a party rooted in anti-semitism are despicable. AfD party leaders speak rhapsodically of Vaterland and Volk, buzzwords the Nazis regularly deployed, and have decried the Berlin Holocaust Memorial as a laughable abomination.
Another dishonest “nazi salute” reference. I hate these people.
Where, exactly, did Musk joke about the Holocaust?
>> caused at least some Jews ... to condemn him.

And yet another reference to the "far-right".
“Where, exactly, did Musk joke about the Holocaust?”

Tweeted Musk last week: “Don’t say Hess to Nazi accusations! Some people will Goebbels anything down! Stop Gőring your enemies.”
“His pronouns would’ve been He/Himmler! Bet you did nazi that coming,” and added a laughing emoji.
“German values”
Militarism
Mass murder
The Sprockets
I am not seeing a joke about killing millions of people in there. Was there another post where he joked about the murder of millions of human beings?
Yes, they love their land and their people. So do I. So do Israelis.
Is there something wrong with that?
Or, to put it another way, if they DO NOT love their land and their people, what do you expect to happen to them? If we do not love our land and our people (for the sake of this discussion I presume you are an American), what do you expect to happen to us?
And if Israelis do not love their land and their people, what do you imagine will be their fate?
Follow revisionist history. It will alway bring you back to leftist atrocities being blamed on some ‘far right’.
The NAZIs were Socialist, not “Far Right.”
GFY. Go join the libtards
“ and now, I’m not so sure who is ridiculous, or if in fact we are all being played,” Blake Flayton.”
You’re being played.

It takes a certain level of obtuseness to conflate Völkism with Patriotismus.
No German has a problem distinguishing the two, which probably underlines the benefit of autistic American multi-billionaires keeping out of German politics.
We can agree that whether far-left or far-right, Nazis were virulent Jew-haters.
For a modern German party to echo Nazi themew is troubling.
Saying this just days after giving a “nazi salute” does not improve the image sheeple have of him.
.
He wasn’t “jokingly minimizing” the Nazi past. Where are you coming up with this stupidity?
World War II ended 80 years ago. No German in 2025 is responsible for what happened in the past, nor should they feel shame for it. Feeling ashamed for what someone ELSE did is ridiculous. It shouldn’t be taboo to be proud to be German.
NO ONE HAS CLAIMED LIVING GERMANS ARE RESPONSIBLE.
Where do you come up with that?
National history does NOT equal shame. A German teen today is no more responsible for the Holocaust than an American kid is for the Wounded Knee massacre.
It’s weird how people who defend retaining monuments so as not to forget US history find a society that rigorously teaches its own history is somehow misguided.
(By the way, the Japanese have largely ignored or downplayed their country’s atrocities, so I guess that by you lights they are more enlightened.)
