Tens of millions on Elon Musk’s X social media site have watched two disturbing AI-translated clips of Adolf Hitler’s 1939 Reichstag speech.
But the videos, in which the genocidal dictator can be heard, through artificial intelligence-generated English, calling for the “annihilation of the Jewish race”, have received a number of positive responses.
‘Did psychopathic globalists falsely demonize Hitler as if they were trying to demonize Putin?’ one user responded below the video. ‘So it seems.’
The viral moment, made possible by Musk’s free speech absolutism on his platform, follows a recent wave of interest among Gen Z TikTokers in Osama Bin Laden’s defense of the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
Some social theorists have attributed this resurgence of public warming to the authoritarian rhetoric of America’s historical enemies and a radical generational shift.
Tens of millions on Elon Musk’s X social media site have watched two disturbing AI-translated clips of Adolf Hitler’s 1939 Reichstag speech.
Hitler, leader of the Nazi Party, aimed to eliminate Europe’s Jews and other perceived enemies of Nazi Germany. His anti-Semitism led to the Holocaust in which six million Jews were murdered at the hands of the Nazi regime.

“The question is whether there will be an outbreak of macroviolence.”
“I’m starting to think we may have lost World War II,” a user with a verified X account posted about the AI-Hitler clip.
“It seems like these people cared about their country above all else,” another posted.

Reactions to the videos, of course, spanned political ideologies, with many X users jumping into the fray to denounce the racist and anti-Semitic rhetoric of AI-Hitler, and those who promote it on the platform.
“The guy who said he would never marry Taylor Swift because she’s too old and that makes (Travis) Kelce gay is the same guy promoting Hitler’s AI speech,” said one cybersecurity researcher. @SwiftOnSecurity said in a mailreferring to right-wing troll Owen Benjamin.
The video appeared on X, where it received surprising comments from users saying that Hitler was a good leader.
“This is both fascinating and chilling as it unlocks the minds of the monsters in the story,” said another user. aware.
TikTok has criticized users promoting a vile letter written by Osama Bin Laden regarding the atrocities of 9/11 and vowed to remove any content referencing it.
“The content promoted by this letter clearly violates our rules regarding supporting any form of terrorism,” TikTokPolicy wrote in a post on X, formerly Twitter.
“We are proactively and aggressively removing this content and investigating how it ended up on our platform.”
The video-sharing platform claims that the number of videos on TikTok is “small” and that “reports about the trend (on the) platform are inaccurate.”
It was later removed and the outlet explained to DailyMail.com that it was being shared “without its original context.” The letter continued to spread on X, but was prevented from spreading on Reddit.
The Guardian did not explain further how the link was made between the current conflict in the Middle East and a verbatim letter from Bin Laden that was more than 20 years old.
The link to the letter spread, and hundreds of TikTokers posted videos in response to reading it, in which they appear to confuse the hateful tirade with an intellectual opinion piece.
hThe letter was originally published with an article explaining that the original version was in Arabic on a website used by Al Qaeda to ‘spread messages and’ was sent to hundreds of subscribers to an email list run by Mohammed al-Massari, the United Kingdom- Saudi dissident based in Saudi Arabia.
The message added that the United States government was included in the list.
The various trending videos about the letter do not include any context about bin Laden’s life as a jihadist in which his followers massacred thousands of Muslims and non-Muslims alike, nor about his support for some of the most oppressive political regimes imaginable.
