Summary
A Saudi doctor intentionally drove into a crowded Christmas market in Magdeburg, Germany, killing five people, including a child, and injuring over 200.
The 50-year-old suspect, who had lived in Germany for nearly two decades, expressed anti-Islam views and supported far-right politics. Authorities believe he acted alone.
The attack shocked Germany, prompting other towns to cancel Christmas markets and increasing security measures nationwide.
Chancellor Olaf Scholz mourned the victims, and a memorial service is planned. Saudi Arabia condemned the attack, calling it a tragedy.

Considering he retweeted Musk more than once, I don’t think suggesting that Musk had an effect on his thinking is as far-fetched as you seem to.
Oh let me clarify - I’m sure this terrorist act wouldn’t impact Musk’s endorsement of the AfD one bit.

Afaik, clients for Lemmy have tags, but they are stored on client side, too
Ah, yes you are correct.
