Tech billionaire Elon Musk virtually appeared at a rally for Germany's far-right political party AfD, praising their focus on German heritage. In his remarks, Musk urged attendees not to feel shame for their history, encouraging pride in German culture. His comments sparked controversy, especially given their timing before International Holocaust Remembrance Day and following a gesture reminiscent of a Nazi salute. Musk's interference in German politics raises concerns, reflecting a broader trend of his support for far-right leaders across Europe.
Musk emphasized pride in German heritage, stating, 'It's good to be proud of German culture and German values, and not to lose that in some sort of multiculturalism.'
In a controversial context, Musk remarked, 'There is frankly too much of a focus on past guilt and we need to move beyond that,' prompting applause from the crowd.
