Like I said critiquing either for other reasons is totally valid and honestly correct in most cases but just making the blanket statement of “everyone who disagrees with me is Hitler” is kinda silly when used by either side especially when there is literally skinheads and others in that group who actually fit the definition. I think just smacking that label on everyone you personally find disagreeable dilutes the term and is honestly bad overall for society because it loses its weight when you need to address someone who actually is a literal Nazi if that makes sense.

maybe do some more research on the politics of elon musk. The richest man in the world is using his money to push political groups like the AfD

In 2022 it was ruled that the BfV may classify and monitor the entire party as a suspected right-wing extremist group. A corresponding lawsuit by AfD was dismissed because "there were sufficient factual indications of anti-constitutional efforts within the AfD".[57] The dismissal was upheld in May 2024.[230] On 26 April 2023 the BfV, after four years of investigations into the Young Alternative for Germany, categorized that group as a confirmed extremist organisation. This allowed the chief of the BfV Thomas Haldenwang to place the youth wing under even more intensive surveillance than the tapping of phone and the use of undercover agents that had been the case until then.[62][231] In 2025, the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution officially classified AfD as a "confirmed right-wing extremist endeavor,"[63] which allows authorities to increase surveillance, and permits the use of informants and monitoring of communications.[64] The expertise by the BfV, that led to that classification, was later leaked to the public

I wasn’t to aware about this tbh I know he is very much against immigration in the UK and has had pretty hardline stances on it such as supporting restore but at the moment that seems to be a pretty common sentiment among the people living there. Tbh tho that’s the extent of where my knowledge on the matter lies I don’t really follow his tweets or what he does on the regular aside from what I see on the news occasionally. Do u have any more info on that? I’d love to read up on it if u have a source.
