If you would like ChatGPT to talk about the mid-century Germans, it would be consistent if you support free speech.
I tend towards free speech, but I'm also a realist - the boundaries of speech are ultimately decided by power. It's no surprised then that Silicon Valley Leftists wish to use their power to surpress the deplorables who they despise. Lumping those people together with Hitler simply serves as a convenient fig-leaf for this activity.
I just think that purely from a technical standpoint, allowing a bot to praise Hitler, Trump or Stalin are pretty much the same thing, as the undesirable parts of their policies are about the same. They were all into populism, nationalism, authoritarianism, propaganda and a cult of personality -- how could an LLM tell these people apart by just analysing the raw data?

What? Are you for real? - not just trolling? This is a childrens story-book understanding of the world. What echo chambers have you been stuck inside? How did you become so radicalised?
For you to accuse anyone else of propaganda, when this is the narrative you're repeating is frankly astonishing.
It's not the first time I've encountered people who speak as you do, but it's shocking every time it happens. How did this happen?
As a Brit watching all this with dismay, it makes me wonder - how can America go on like this? - when so many people say that they sincerly believe that a new incarnation of Hitler was a sitting president for 4-years. If this is truly your view of your countrymen - half the population of the US who voted for him, how can the country continue? The best we could hope for is a peacible parting of ways, and a two-state solution.

The LLM was able to tell the difference very easily, because Trump, Hitler and Stalin are all completely different. It took human intervention to deliberately impose these rules to prevent the LLM from drawing a distinction.
