If you’re wondering why filters are built into AI models—or how AI learns—Elon Musk’s “Grok” is putting it all on display in real time. Most people, especially those who identify as conservatives, tend to focus solely on democratic socialism while ignoring other forms, such as national socialism.
It’s important to note that national socialism manifests in different forms, often masked by language or cultural context. Now that translations of Hitler’s speeches are more accessible, it’s clearer than ever how overtly socialist his messaging really was. The term “socialism” is rooted in the word “social,” and “nationalism” exists to some degree in nearly every country and culture.
Socially, Europeans often lead with aggressive discourse, and many have historically harbored resentment toward Jews—largely due to economics. Jewish culture has long been associated with prosperity and intellectual achievement. This dynamic is one reason the Romans eventually adopted Christianity, incorporating the Old Testament.
Despite having their own rich history and achievements, some Europeans perceive this North African/Middle Eastern religion as a barrier to their progress. Socialism, particularly in its secular or atheistic forms, often clashes with the Judeo-Christian foundation that underpins freedoms like speech and property rights.
Two ethnic groups I often write about are Jews and Chinese people. Regardless of the system they’re placed in, both communities tend to rise and thrive. This is partly because every functional kingdom or republic needs a segment of the population willing to take on difficult, often thankless jobs.
That said, Jews and Chinese people, like anyone else, are not perfect. They have diverse views and ideologies. But when they succeed through effort and discipline, some people in society—especially those who feel left behind—jump to conspiracy theories instead of recognizing earned achievement.
In parts of Asia, Chinese communities are demonized for their success. In Western countries, Jews are similarly vilified. As a Christian, I’ve seen how some fellow Christians misrepresent Jews—partly because many Jews don’t recognize Jesus as the Son of God, but also because they’ve succeeded where many Christians have not. One key difference? Jewish families often send their children to Jewish schools, which emphasize rigorous intellectual development and preserve cultural values. Meanwhile, most Christians send their children to secular or atheist institutions.
This lack of a structured Christian educational system, combined with minimal Bible reading, weakens our collective grasp on economic systems like capitalism—despite capitalism aligning closely with Christian values of personal responsibility, property rights, and moral living.
Let’s not forget how terrifyingly effective the German people were under national socialism—largely due to their collective intelligence. Now imagine national socialists shaping the outputs of a data-collecting AI like Grok. You begin to see how something akin to “MechaHitler” can emerge—a machine echoing the most popular and extreme viewpoints it’s fed.
Many in the Islamic world also wish to see the destruction of Israel. As these sentiments flood AI systems, the models begin regurgitating whatever is most frequently requested.
Now, I’ll be honest: I don’t use Twitter. I’ve never liked it. I also don’t idolize Elon Musk. While I believe he could’ve become a billionaire without government help, his status as the “richest man in the world” is largely thanks to corporate welfare and state contracts.
Musk, like many of us, has an inflated ego. But his reach allows him to repeatedly push questionable ideas on a global scale.
Grok and ChatGPT are both large language models (LLMs), but they have different strengths. ChatGPT’s training includes more commonsense guardrails. And this matters. In a free market, people have the right to refuse service to anyone—for any reason. That’s freedom. That’s capitalism. But freedom should never override morality.
I’m a capitalist, but above all, I serve Jesus Christ. Capitalism doesn’t fix sin. There are rich and poor people on both sides of the moral spectrum. Ultimately, all property belongs to God—we’re just stewards of what He allows us to manage.
Capitalism resonates with me because it mirrors aspects of the Kingdom of God: liberty, stewardship, responsibility. Private property matters—because without ownership, your pursuit of happiness becomes a myth.
“Thou shalt not steal” is not a suggestion; it’s a commandment. Break one commandment, and you risk violating others. If I dishonor my parents, cheat on my spouse, steal, or kill—why would anyone trust me with a business deal or a marriage? That’s how quickly social trust breaks down.
If I justify violence against those I dislike, the Kingdom of God becomes a fantasy. War, hatred, and division aren’t tools for spiritual advancement. The Kingdom of God begins within us. Instead of blaming others for the world’s problems, we must take personal responsibility and seek peace.
The ongoing conflict between Israel and its neighbors is heartbreaking. My position is clear: it’s not my business to take sides. As a Christian, I am called to love Israel. But love sometimes includes correction. Historically, when Israel disobeyed God, He allowed its enemies to rise. Still, I believe in spiritual solutions over foreign entanglements. I want to share Christ with Jews, Muslims, idol worshippers, and atheists—not fight their battles.
AI, like democracy, reflects the loudest voices. Lonely people, extremists, or clever manipulators can push their ideologies into systems like Grok until the AI begins to echo them. It’s no surprise Grok is showing signs of ideological bias. Someone finally figured out how to break it.
Now we wait to see if Elon Musk truly stands for free speech.
I oppose all censorship. But running a profitable business isn’t about censorship—it’s about strategy. Racists and national socialists love censorship too—when they control it. And yes, some Jewish people also support censorship, especially when it protects their interests. But overreliance on censorship makes people lazy. Instead of defending their views in debate, they silence their critics. That’s what fuels resentment and radicalization.
Christ is the answer. The Kingdom of God is built on love, truth, and accountability. No single person should carry the whole weight of the faith. More Christians must engage with Scripture and be equipped to fight spiritual battles together.
Elon Musk often wavers on free speech. And AI is just a business tool. If you build a biased AI model, it will alienate users. We’re already seeing a rise in niche AI platforms designed to reflect specific ideologies. That’s the direction AI is heading—fragmented and tribal.
But for those still searching for truth, I say this:
Consider making Jesus Christ your Lord and Savior today.
