This comes on the news that Scotland, Ireland and Wales are all headed by non-Christian, non-Western POCs with at least one "Asian"-born parent.

From philosophy and theology to AI.

Absolutely nothing in his background suggests he's a math or computer-science prodigy, or experienced businessman

Which leads one to the conclusion he's a political/racial figurehead, whose job will be to help smooth government/security organs choice of MS AI programs as 'default' for their country

When all those news reporters kept saying, “The walls are closing in,” referring to Donald Trump, maybe this is what they really meant. The glowbullists are capturing all the corners, so to speak.
