Elon may already be undertaking the “Free Europe” process too.
In a prior article, “Whining Euro-weenies on full display”, I suggested that after Elon and Vivek are done transforming the federal government, they can tackle the liberation of Europe—Elon may be undertaking that process earlier than I expected. In a six-word tweet, Musk asserted that “Only the AfD can save Germany.” AfD is the Alternative for Germany party. The European ruling class responded with predictable pearl-clutching and hyperventilation, but remained impotent in their ability to censor him. However, they are correct to infer that Musk threatens the power of the current political class in Europe that has left the continent bankrupt in a real and metaphoric sense.
Since the end of WWII, the objective of the European political class has been to create a straitjacket to prevent any nationalist ambitions. In the last two decades, they have used the specter of climate catastrophism to tighten the straitjacket, but it is starting to have the opposite effect. Their society is starting to divide between ordinary people and a ruling class that is not only wealthy enough to withstand the economic pain of the enacted climate policies, but clever enough to often benefit from them.
The AfD has been pointing out that the German energy transition, Energiewende, has brought deindustrialization and economic misery. For that, and its position against immigration, the AfD has been branded by the mainstream political parties as a pariah. The mainstream parties have constructed the cartoonish image that the AfD embodies the spirit of the Nazis. They have tried to censor and ban it. Their techniques differ somewhat from those that the Democrats employed against Trump such as spurious investigations, impeachments, and lawfare, but essentially the mainstream parties orchestrated the same political persecution of the AfD.

You sound vaccinated.
And finally, you show off the fact that your claim to fame in life is to ride on the anti vaccination band wagon
If I was in Musk’s shoes with all on his plate, I’d have placed a few confidants within the organization to prepare for the next culling.
It takes time to infiltrate corporate cliques (especially leftist cliques); I hope that I’m right.
We love bert. He lets us know we are not so stupid.
‘Participation in politics destroyed the My Pillow guy, Mike Lindel’
> Most businessman are deep into politics by direct or indirect lobbying and hugely profit from it. <
Yes, but they are deep into politics for profit reasons only. Lindel and Musk are in it for patriotic reasons.
> And Mike Lindel is perfectly fine… <
Many stores have dropped his products. Sure, he’s still in operation. But it’s nothing like it used to be. And that’s a damn shame. Communist tactics were used against him. The consumer should decide, not a bunch of liberal company executives.
This article is from 2021, but it’s still telling.
The Germans I know believe what they are told by the media.
No reason you can’t start a new account. I was banned 5 times before Musk toke over.
I took great pains while I was on it never to violate the terms of service.
After gritting my teeth and lodging three appeals...
Well, now I’m getting cranky.
I’m within a whisker of trying to find some legal eagle who’d be happy to go to court to find out who in Hades banned me, why, and why I’m still freaking banned when I NEVER violated the TOS.
Oh, there’s a very good reason I cannot do that.
I have been informed that I am prohibited from doing so.
BTW, all my appeals are very recent.
Since Musk took over.
As free citizens we believe in direct democracy, the separation of powers, the rule of law, social market economics, subsidiarity, federalism, family values, and German cultural heritage, as democracy and freedom are vested in our cultural values and historical tradition. The recollection of the two revolutions of 1848 and 1989 drive our civil protest and the determination to complete our national unity in freedom, and create a Europe of sovereign and democratic nation states, united in peace, self-determination and good-neighborliness.I presume that Musk is doing this out of ignorance.
— AfD party platform, preamble
Minimum wages and the social market economy are closely connected. Minimum wages adjust the remunerative position of low-income workers as weak market players with respect to the interests of employers as strong market players. They also safeguard low-income workers against wage pressure caused by recent mass-immigration. Minimum wages enable an existence above the poverty line, and at least guarantee a humble pension, which otherwise would have to be paid for by society in the form of state support. Minimum wages thus prevent the privatization of profits while costs are socialized. It is for this reason that the AfD supports the retention of minimum wages.

You are so right.
Henry Ford was one of the greatest American businessmen of all time. And he hated Jews.
“Three recent appeals and I’m still banned on X.”
I am banned until I delete a nasty exchange I had with a nasty Muslim. I am using my other Twitter account for the time being. I am confident that if I delete, that X will allow me back.
