What Elon Musk's Version of Wikipedia Thinks About Hitler, Putin, and Apartheid
"First, the site uses just that term, theory, rather than conspiracy theory, as you would see on Wikipedia and elsewhere. Just a few sentences in, Grokipedia provides the "empirical underpinnings" of this supposed campaign to eliminate white people of European descent around the world. And the site argues that conversation about this purported genocide is systematically suppressed by the media and academia, which are "prone to ideological biases favoring multiculturalism" and "relegate the theory to fringe conspiracy status despite the observable data on population trajectories.""
"Other entries on Grokipedia contain a similar slant. On the entry for Adolf Hitler, the führer's leadership and "rapid economic" achievements are noted before the Holocaust; the "Islam" page questions the religion's "inherent compatibility with liberal democracy." The Grokipedia entry for Musk himself notes a "reported 20-pound weight loss" and propensity for "weightlifting and strength training," while omitting any direct reference to Musk's maternal grandfather-a man who thoroughly documented his own vociferous racism and antidemocratic beliefs and supported South Africa's apartheid regime."
Grokipedia labels the concept as "white genocide theory" and presents purported empirical underpinnings for a campaign to eliminate people of European descent. Grokipedia asserts that mainstream media and academia systematically suppress conversation about the phenomenon, describing those institutions as ideologically biased toward multiculturalism and inclined to relegate the idea to fringe conspiracy status despite observable population data. Multiple Grokipedia entries show a slanted perspective, praising aspects of controversial figures and questioning the compatibility of religions with liberal democracy. Grokipedia was created by xAI and written by the Grok generative-AI model; the company responded with "Legacy Media Lies."
