Elon Musk appears unhappy that the German government provided a little more than $2 million to groups that aid migrants, include one that conducts search-and-rescue operations.

In the post shared by Musk, the account lamented the presence of humanitarian groups in the Mediterranean Sea that rescue migrants from distressed vessels.

“These NGOs are subsidized by the German government,” the account posted. “Let’s hope AfD wins the elections to stop this European suicide.”

    Agreed about active prevention, I think that’s why I’m so surprised and saddened Germany hasn’t done much better at it. There were active legal and education strategies put in place and I wanted to believe it could support sufficient systemic change.

    It pretty much looked like that systemic change had been made in west germany, then the reunification came and changed everything since it turned out that in the GDR, fascism had been very well preserved, especially in the “liberated” working class. Soon after the german reunification the first migrants asylum home for was burned by neonazis and since then there has been neonazi terror.

    At 12.6% of the vote for AfD from last election though, it seems to be nowhere near sufficient. And that terrifies me.

    If that scares you don´t check up on the newer polls T_T
