Positive messages with hearts usually appear on the soft -based monster account, but that changed on Sunday. “The X account of Elmo was hacked for a short time by an unknown perpetrator who posted disgusting messages, including anti-Semitic and racist posts,” confirmed a spokesperson for Sesame workshop, the organization behind Sesame Street.

Message service X is startled more often by incidents around hate speech. For example, Chatbot Grok recently praised Nazi leader Adolf Hitler. Last weekend apologies followed for that “terrible behavior” on the X account of De Bot.
