Elon Musk, owner of the platform X (formerly Twitter), has stirred controversy by criticizing German politicians and calling for votes for the far-right AfD party. Despite this, many politicians continue to engage on X, raising questions about its role in political discourse. Critics, including Antidiscrimination Commissioner Ferda Ataman, argue that X has transformed into a platform for extreme right misinformation, prompting calls for government withdrawal. The German government, however, maintains its presence on X to connect with citizens, complicating the debate around free speech and political influence.
