UFC fighter Bryce Mitchell made controversial remarks comparing Elon Musk to Adolf Hitler during the debut episode of his new podcast, “ArkanSanity.” Mitchell suggested that Hitler was “for freedom” while criticizing Musk’s alleged ambitions of control through technology.
Mitchell referenced a recent incident at Donald Trump’s presidential campaign inauguration, where Musk appeared to make a gesture that some interpreted as a Nazi salute. However, Mitchell argued that Musk’s ideology does not align with Hitler’s.
“Hitler was for freedom,” Mitchell stated. “Elon Musk wants to put a chip up your a*s and know every thought and control every move that you make.”
Musk’s salute
The first episode of Mitchell’s podcast is a roller coaster. While some might take a while to talk about controversial topics, Mitchell delivered the unintentionally funniest defense of Musk’s viral moment at the Trump inauguration.
Mitchell made additional inflammatory remarks about Hitler, portraying him as initially well-intentioned before being affected by use.
“Hitler was a guy you could go fishing with. He fought for his country before he got all messed up on m*th,” Mitchell claimed. “He wanted to purify it by kicking the greedy Jews out, and he didn’t want a bunch of queers destroying his nation.”
While acknowledging that “Hitler ain’t perfect,” Mitchell contrasted this with his perception of Musk, emphasizing that “Elon Musk is for control,” whereas “Hitler just wanted to free his people.”
Mitchell has repeatedly went to bat against Musk who he considers a demonic presence.
Mitchell’s Literalist Christian Views
Mitchell’s worldview is shaped by his deep Christian faith and strict biblical literalism. During the first episode of “ArkanSanity,” he passionately defended taking the Bible as absolute truth.
“I believe the Bible is literally true, word for word, as it was written,” he declared. He further argued that the Earth is only 6,000 years old because, in his view, the Bible explicitly states this.
“You take that science and go to hell with it because it is a lie from the devil,” Mitchell said. He dismissed scientific dating methods as deceptive, claiming that Christians who accept an older Earth have been misled by public schools, which he believes are “run by the devil.”
His literalist stance extends to all biblical accounts, including Moses splitting rocks and divine manifestations on Mount Sinai, which he asserts are historical events with physical evidence still visible today.
Mitchell’s Encounter with Conor McGregor
Mitchell’s religious beliefs also played a role in a recent interaction with UFC star Conor McGregor at Trump’s campaign inauguration. Mitchell prayed over McGregor, reciting Ephesians 6:12: “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against rulers of darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.”
Mitchell claimed McGregor had a strong physical reaction to the prayer:
“When I said we wrestle not against flesh and blood, brother, I kid you not—it was like Conor got shocked by electricity. He just perked up and went stiff as a board. I could feel it because his hands were on me.”
According to Mitchell, McGregor later told him, “Brother, that prayer, it resonated with me. That’s what I needed. I am fighting these demons.”
Mitchell believes McGregor is under spiritual attack due to his political aspirations in Ireland and his recent public expression of Christian faith. He defended McGregor against recent allegations, suggesting they emerged as part of a spiritual battle against him.
“You can say what you want about Conor McGregor, but he is not a r*pist,” Mitchell asserted. “The accusations came out right after he started talking about running for office.”
Unconventional Theories on Ancient History
Beyond politics and religion, Mitchell has also shared unconventional views on history. In another segment of his podcast, he claimed that the Egyptian pyramids were built by giants using “resonating technology.”
“I believe the giants built the pyramids… they had resonating technology,” Mitchell stated. He theorized that ancient civilizations used vibrations to levitate objects, citing examples of how sound waves can make small objects hover.
“There must have been something with vibrations where they could glide stones over sand without much energy,” he speculated. He expressed skepticism about conventional archaeological explanations, arguing that ancient structures display engineering capabilities beyond what modern humans can replicate.
Where does Mitchell go from here?
Mitchell’s debut podcast episode showcased his wide-ranging and often controversial views on religion, history, and modern technology. His comments on Hitler and Musk are sure to draw backlash, as they align with a revisionist and inflammatory perspective. Meanwhile, his defense of McGregor and claims about ancient giants reflect his broader worldview—one deeply rooted in biblical literalism and skepticism of mainstream narratives.
Whether viewed as a bold truth-teller or an unfiltered provocateur, Mitchell’s podcast is likely to continue generating headlines as he delves further into his unconventional beliefs.
