Mainstream politicians express alarm while lead candidate in Saxony-Anhalt welcomes congratulations from Elon Musk
Mainstream politicians around Europe have expressed alarm after the far-right Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) swept to a historic state election victory in Germany, while nationalist figures cheered the result as a mandate for change.
While falling just short of an absolute majority, the AfD surged into first place in the Saxony-Anhalt state election on Sunday, exit polls showed, putting the far right within reach of power at the state level for the first time since the second world war.
They need to investigate this yesterday. I believe Musk meddles big time
No way humanity is actually that bad
I mean yes yes we are. This time period we have been is is the anomaly if talking span of time.
Pretty much impossible to do. The voting system in Germany is fairly analog. It’s all done on paper.
The only electronic part, that could be hacked, is when the do quick reports of the results that are being used for reporting on the day of the election. But discrepancies would come to light very soon.
So I highly doubt direct interference with the election. But I’m sure he has a big influence on the propaganda that’s going on, and that is problematic enough.
I don’t know about the people being bad. They are certainly misled, and I would have liked to bring that up as a defense. But it also says something about them, if they let themselves be misled by obvious arseholes.
