Elon Musk spoke to the hard-right Alternative for Germany party, emphasizing pride in German culture and cautioning against multiculturalism that could dilute it. His remarks, delivered before significant memorial events for Nazi atrocities, attracted criticism. Detractors noted the inopportune timing and questioned the appropriateness of Musk's audience, highlighting a tension between national pride and historical guilt. His comments have sparked discussions around identity, culture, and the legacy of the Nazi past in contemporary Germany.
It's good to be proud of German culture, German values, and not to lose that in some sort of multiculturalism that dilutes everything.
We want to have something where it's, you go to different countries and you experience a different culture and it is unique and special and good.
The enthusiasm of the native South African Elon Musk for German right-wing radicals, for German pride, German people and German hand signals is remarkable.
Critics sharply condemned his words, especially given the timing just before the significant commemoration of the liberation of the Auschwitz concentration camp.
