[QUOTE="Jack, post: 1036427, member: 43"] [B]Burgard and Ulf Poschardt, the incoming publisher of [I]Welt am Sonntag[/I][/B], said in a statement to Reuters, "Democracy and journalism thrive on freedom of expression. This includes dealing with polarizing positions and classifying them journalistically." They added that the discussion surrounding Musk's opinion article was "very revealing." Musk's piece had over 300 comments several hours after it was published. [B]Scholz [/B]said at a news conference on December 20 in response to Musk's X post, "We have freedom of opinion—it also goes for multibillionaires, but freedom of opinion also means that you can say things that aren't right and don't contain good political advice." He added: "I say emphatically that the democratic parties in Germany all see it differently." [B]Weidel[/B] said in a December 20 X post that the AfD "is indeed the one and only alternative for our country; our very last option." She also shared several blurbs taken from Musk's opinion piece on X on Saturday, which have been translated from German to English: [LIST] [*]"The AfD advocates a controlled immigration policy that gives priority to integration and the preservation of German culture and security. This is not about xenophobia, but about ensuring that Germany does not lose its identity in the pursuit of globalization." [*]"The AfD, even though it is described as right-wing extremist, represents a political realism that resonates with many Germans who feel that their concerns are ignored by the establishment. It addresses current problems - without the political correctness that often obscures the truth." [*]"The AfD has understood that economic freedom is not only desirable, but necessary. Their approach to reducing government over-regulation, cutting taxes and deregulating the market reflects the principles that have made Tesla and SpaceX successful." [/LIST] Musk reshared some of Weidel's posts on X. German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier scheduled new elections for February 23, seven months earlier than planned after Scholz lost a confidence vote in the German parliament last week amid the country's worsening economic crisis. AfD is polling in second place after the German conservatives, Reuters reported earlier this month. But, according to the Associated Press, Weidel will not realistically become chancellor given that other parties refuse to work with the AfD. [/QUOTE]
