To the editor: Elon Musk, in his German newspaper op-ed piece backing Germany’s far-right party, tried to calm readers by saying that the far-right chief of the Different for Germany get together, or AfD, had a same-sex accomplice (Sri Lankan, no much less) and due to this fact couldn’t probably be like Adolf Hitler.
