It’s not uncensored, it censors anything “woke”

From what I can see it doesn't; e.g. I just asked Grok 4 whether DEI is good, and this is what it told me:

> DEI can be "good" when it's thoughtfully implemented, evidence-based, and focused on measurable outcomes rather than optics. It has proven benefits in creating more equitable and productive environments, supported by data from sources like Deloitte and Gallup. However, it can be harmful if it's forced, poorly managed, or used as a political tool, leading to unintended consequences like division or inefficiency.

...so Grok 4 confirmed woke? Just don't tell Elon.

But sure, don't let actual evidence get in the way of your biases.

The story on the front page says it checks Elon's tweets when you ask it something factual.

It doesn't check his tweets specifically for facts. There's a clear anti-Elon bias on this website. Often links go to the same single reporter that has wrote 10 previous hit pieces on Elon in the past.

Why wouldn’t there be bias? This is the guy that did a Nazi salute, an ideology that specifically calls for races of people to be exterminated. I can’t imagine another situation where you need to as aggressively biased.

It’s no surprise he has released the most censored LLM so far.

It’s like saying I shouldn’t be biased against my kid’s schoolteacher who is a habitual sexual offender.

He didn't do a nazi salute though. He made a motion that looked like one. HE literally went to a memorial for israelites a year early and wore a necklace in their memory for over a year.

Isn't this "it can be good BUT..." one of the very point of anti-woke? Like in "I'm not racist, BUT..."?
