Some people self-censor by deliberately misspelling words. Hister is also another example (see Nostrodomus for that one.)

... It's a joke about Grok which had a weird moment where it referred to itself as Mechahitler[1]. Also it's relevant because Grok also had/has some strong biases about the treatment of white South Africans[2]: so case in point of LLMs being used to alter facts about the past and the world.
