By voicing his support for AfD on his platform and challenging the taboo of German national guilt, Elon Musk has emerged as a key figure in the right-wing party’s gradual dismantling the ‘firewall’ that mainstream parties have upheld against it for years.
Elon Musk’s gesture at one of President Trump’s inaugural balls is getting a lot of mainstream media coverage, with many comparing it to a Nazi salute. However, such associations tend to not stick with the public at all by now, as proven by the events leading up to the 2024 US presidential election.
While the Western mainstream has launched an all-out assault on Elon Musk, Patriots for Europe has invited the American billionaire to lecture at the European Parliament on free speech. If anyone understands what it means to be suppressed by the mainstream it’s PfE, currently behind a cordon sanitaire in the EP, barred from holding chair and vice-chair positions in committees.
‘Elon Musk is dismantling one of the most powerful weapons progressives have wielded: the deliberate silencing of opposing voices. Musk is countering this strategy by simply allowing right-wing forces to voice their opinions. In other words, he is upholding their most fundamental democratic right: the right to freedom of expression.’

Donald Trump’s campaign team has accused EU Commissioner Thierry Breton of election meddling after he sent a letter to Elon Musk, stating that Musk had a duty to censor potentially ‘harmful content’ on X ahead of Musk’s interview with the former US president. To make matters more embarrassing, it has emerged that Breton did not even inform Ursula von der Leyen of his actions.
Former co-president of the Hungarian left-wing party LMP András Schiffer has published an opinion piece about the German drugstore chain’s boycott of Elon Musk’s electric car company Tesla for the eccentric CEO’s support for President Trump.
Thanks to Musk, X has become one of the world’s most prominent free-speech platforms. During the July 13 attempted assassination of President Trump, establishment media pushed false and egregiously misleading headlines, while failing to deliver timely news updates. In contrast, X enabled citizen journalists to work together to quickly assess the unfolding horrors. But according to the European Commission, X ‘deceives users’ with its blue check verification system, lacks advertising transparency, and restricts data access for researchers.
