Musk’s support for AfD as proof of being a Nazi requires more than an op-ed or indirect association. Supporting a party, even if problematic, doesn’t automatically equate to endorsing every extreme element of it.

Platforming someone doesn’t inherently mean endorsing their ideology—it could also be a result of poor judgment or a broader strategy, not an endorsement of their beliefs.

If you can give me something better than strawman arguments (Distorts or oversimplifies another person’s position) (misrepresent or oversimplify your position in order to attack it more easily) we can have a conversation but you have severe case of confirmation bias that is clouding your judgment.
