The tweet was deleted and the article is behind a paywall. What’s it about? VW trying to bully the German government into something?

it was basically an anti-musim ad that reminiscent of the type of anti-jewish propaganda that they used to create back in the 30s. here is the video again: https://x.com/yanisvaroufakis/status/1830715172866175371 Germany is more or less the heart of manufacturing in the EU and so if VW is closing down its german factories due to the very high energy costs imposed on them,(blown up gas pipeline), then its bad times ahead.

China is the heart, lung, extremities and tophat of Europe's manufacturing. VW is owned 20% by the state, 17% by Qatar. VW was bailed out with taxpayer's money out of its own horrendous and toxic mismanagement, broke dozens of laws and is infamous in the manufacturing industry for being one of the most aweful OEMs to work with as it's bullying the shit out suppliers pushing them to the edge of extinction. VW bullies (the irony is thats the name of an iconic model of theirs) and lobbies their way through German politics, blocking public transport infra invests, traffic safety regulations and renewable agendas for their own neverending greed for more profit to shareholders, not for job security. VW is welcome to fuck off. Which they won't. They literally only still exist due to the state they are now blaming for not enough profits.
