A tech billionaire mocked Pope Leo XIV’s call for ethical AI.

The post was deleted — but not before exposing Silicon Valley’s deeper discomfort: a pope they can’t buy or bully.

It also revealed something older: the Valley’s original sin — the desire to be God.
Tech Billionaire Mocks Pope Leo’s AI Warning — and Reveals Silicon Valley’s Original Sin
A billionaire tech guru openly mocked Leo's call for moral AI — and quickly backtracked after backlash. It’s a telling collision of Silicon Valley hubris with a pope they cannot buy, bully, or ignore.

Not only have Lai Ching-te’s rhetoric not changed much from Tsai Ing-wen, the DPP has been increasingly moderate from the days of Peng Ming-min and Chen Shui-bian.

In other words, the DPP has not been more radical, but China has become more predatory.
As a long-time resident in Taiwan, it's clear that Lai Ching-te's rhetoric of Taiwan hasn't substantially changed from Tsai Ing-wen. What has clearly changed is the CCP has up its tempo with its aggression against Taiwan. This is clear when analyzing the data. 1/

S'inquiéter du sort des résidents réticents est légitime.
Affirmer un principe de liberté vaccinale peut se concevoir.
Le problème est qu'une part notable de ces deux mouvances politiques est anti-vax.
Et qu'il ne s'agit donc pas de "convaincre et non contraindre", mais de continuer à désinformer.
Le RN et LFI ont voté contre la vaccination obligatoire des résidents d’Ehpad contre la #grippe, bloquant cette mesure.

"La liberté vaccinale est un principe fondamental", dixit le RN, tandis que LFI a pointé un flou sur le sort des résidents réticents.
