Musk provokes explosives: journalist leaves the world after the AfD scandal!

A surprising insight into the world of German politics: Elon Musk, the entrepreneur and tech mogul, supported the far-right AfD party in a guest article for “Welt am Sonntag”. In this post, published on Saturday, Musk expressed provocative views and stated: "Only the AfD can save Germany." His statements caused an earthquake in the editorial ranks, which ultimately led to the resignation of Eva Marie Kogel, head of the opinion department. Loud Today Kogel resigned because she was of the opinion that Musk's contribution represented election advertising disguised as a guest contribution for the AfD.

The influence and controversy surrounding Musk can also be seen in the negative portrait of Germany he portrays: economic decline and cultural erosion. Critics see his statements as a trivialization of extreme positions and are concerned about the impact that a possible AfD rule could have on Germany. In the response of designated editor-in-chief Jan Philipp Burgard to Musk, he describes his support of the AfD as “fatally wrong” and warns of the geopolitical consequences of such a policy, as reported by AOL reported.

Political impact and voter sentiment

The reactions to Musk's statements are as varied as the political landscape. While some of his posts are met with approval, many express concerns about the social and political risks of this support for the AfD. Confidence in journalistic integrity has also been questioned, particularly after a heated editorial conference that highlighted internal tensions. Musk himself justified his intervention by saying he has “significant investments” in Germany, which only further fuels the debate about influence and national sovereignty.
