The AfD’s lead candidate in Saxony-Anhalt publicly thanked Elon Musk for his support in the election and welcomed further "strong and constructive cooperation."
This should prompt serious scrutiny of foreign influence on German elections, particularly when that influence comes from someone who controls a major communications platform with hundreds of millions of users. But we suspect little or nothing will happen.

RE: https://mastodon.social/@leavex/117229474967372485 @leavex@mastodon.social as long as members of government are actively cooperating and posting on a private platform of said fascist, there is little hope for concerns and consideration. @bundestag@social.bund.de well, is there awareness among your members??? #farRight #Musk #leaveX
