[Answered ]-Django how can I get this translated markdown to render correctly on a website?

Django’s template engine will escape the text, such that if the text contains a < b, it will render it as a < b. You can disable this escaping with the |safe template filter [Django-doc]:

{% for chat_stream in chat %}
    <p>
    {% if forloop.last %}
    {% else %}
        <b>bot:</b> <br> {{ chat_stream.ss|safe }} <br>
        <b>{{ user }}:</b> <br> {{ chat_stream.user }} <br>
    {% endif %}
    </p>
{% endfor %}
