Comment on Elon Musk Had Grok Rewrite Wikipedia. It Calls Hitler “The Führer.”
groet@feddit.org 3 weeks agoThe word Führer is 99% used for Hitler. There are many variants that are OK to use though. Most notably Anführer (if Führer is leader, Anführer would be “the one who leads ahead”) which is the common word to use for leader. Others are composites like Bergführer (mountain guide).
