Elon Musk addresses far-right crowd in Germany after backlash over salutes, Nazi puns
Musk told AfD supporters at a campaign event that “children should not be guilty of the sins of their parents” in an apparent reference to Germany’s Nazi past.www.msnbc.com
He's distancing Germans from nazism in that speech. It's hardly a rallying call.
At a neo Nazi rally. YesQuoted from his speech at the ADF meeting:
“ I think there’s, frankly, too much of a focus on past guilt, and we need to move beyond that. Children should not be guilty of the sins of their parents ... let alone their great-grandparents, maybe even,” Musk said, in an apparent reference to Germany’s Nazi past."
I see nothing wrong with that at all. He's absolutely right.Elon Musk addresses far-right crowd in Germany after backlash over salutes, Nazi puns

Do you consider that white supremacist rhetoric?
Do I think dog whistling the 14 words at an AfD meeting by talking about the Germany's children and their culture being lost in multiculturalism is white supremacist rhetoric?

Killing of Wolfaardt, Uys, and Fourie
Alwyn Wolfaardt pleads for his life.
The convoy of AWB vehicles had been firing into roadside houses as they passed through a poor black area of Mafikeng.[19] Members of the Bophuthatswana police had set up an ambush and opened fire on the AWB convoy, killing one AWB militant, Francois Alwyn Venter, and wounding eleven others. Although most of the AWB vehicles managed to escape, the last vehicle was left behind. AWB Colonel Alwyn Wolfaardt, AWB General Nicolaas Fourie and Veldkornet (Field Cornet) Jacobus Stephanus Uys were driving a blue Mercedes-Benz W108 at the end of the convoy. The driver, Fourie, was shot in the neck; another passenger, Wolfaardt; in the arm and the remaining passenger, Uys, in the leg. Wolfaardt and Uys were wounded and Fourie died almost instantly. Wolfaardt stumbled out of the car and brandished a handgun but was advised by the onlookers not to start shooting. A Bophuthatswana police officer relieved him of the weapon. Half a dozen reporters who had stumbled on to the scene recorded what followed. A journalist approached and spoke to Wolfaardt, asking if he was a member of the AWB. Wolfaardt confirmed this, reporting that they had been dispatched from Naboomspruit. He then pleaded for the lives of him and his injured comrade, "Please God, help us! Get us some medical help!", he said. In response, a police officer strolled up to the two men, pointed his R4 rifle, and fired two bullets into each men at point-blank range, firing a further two into the body of Fourie, which he then proceeded to kick in the ribs. The execution was captured by the nearby journalists and broadcast worldwide.[15][4]
Soon after the deaths of the AWB militants, the BDF ordered the Afrikaner Volksfront to leave Bophuthatswana. The Volksfront withdrew in a much more orderly fashion later that afternoon, accompanied by a military escort to avoid the general public, although one Volksfront militant, Francois Willem Jansen Van Rensburg, was shot and killed by an unidentified member of the BDF during the withdrawal.[4]
As the Volksfront and AWB completed their withdrawal, units of the South African Defence Force (SADF) moved to occupy Bophuthatswana and assume responsibility for the territory's security.[8][20][21] Mangope's regime was formally abolished by the South African government the same day.[8]
****ing asmongold. i despise that destitute animal a great deal. of all the gamers to eventually “try” and enter politics he’s gotta be one of the dumbest out there. nothing of substance has left his jaw
context matters, giving that message to a group of far right people will empower their personal belief that their movement is legitimate.
I've only had some passing interactions with white South Africans over the years but in all those cases they had a profound sense of self importance and superiority, not always warrantedExcellent piece that puts what's been swirling round in my mind for a while now far better than I could.
