法国人工智能公司Argil的联合创始人、自封“科技皇帝”的布里瓦埃尔·勒·波加姆周二因其X帖子走红，他在帖子中敦促美国粉丝若不愿步其国后尘，就不要投票给民主党。
Brivael Le Pogam, co-founder and self-proclaimed "techno-emperor" of the French AI company Argil, went viral on Tuesday for his X post urging his American followers to not vote for Democrats if they want to avoid his country's fate.
“我是法国人。我想对即将投票给民主党的美国人说话。不是为了侮辱你们。是为了警告你们。我来自你们的未来，”勒·波加姆在帖子开头写道。
"I’m French. I want to talk to Americans who are about to vote Democrat. Not to insult you. To warn you. I come from your future," Le Pogam began his post.
他解释说，在进步派政客执政下，法国将公共支出提高至接近全国GDP总量的57%，旨在推行免费医疗、免费大学教育和强有力的福利体系。然而，结果却惨不忍睹。
He explained that under progressive politicians, France increased public spending to nearly 57% of the country's total GDP in an effort to push free healthcare, free college and a strong welfare system. The results, however, have been dismal.
安迪·贝希尔称社会主义是“失败的实验”，民调显示民主党人对其好感度高于资本主义 “从内部看，情况是这样的：法国自1974年以来从未通过过平衡预算。我们的债务超过3.3万亿欧元。债务利息正成为国家预算中最大的支出项目之一。尽管投入创纪录的资金，我们的医院却在崩溃。我们的学校排名逐年下降。拥有学位的年轻人买不起出生地所在城市的公寓。我们最优秀的工程师纷纷前往伦敦、苏黎世和旧金山。而你们想征税的富人？他们也离开了，并带走了就业岗位，”勒·波加姆写道。
ANDY BESHEAR CALLS SOCIALISM A 'FAILED EXPERIMENT' AS POLL FINDS DEMS VIEW IT MORE FAVORABLY THAN CAPITALISM "Here’s what it looks like from the inside. France hasn’t passed a balanced budget since 1974. Our debt is above 3,300 billion euros. Interest on that debt is becoming one of the biggest items in the national budget. Our hospitals are collapsing despite record funding. Our schools rank lower every year. Young people with degrees can’t afford an apartment in the city they were born in. Our best engineers leave for London, Zurich and San Francisco. And the rich you wanted to tax? They left too, and took the jobs with them," Le Pogam wrote.
他警告追随者，法国并非投票选择了衰退，却承担了50年税收与监管的后果，劝诫美国人不要走上同一条路。
He warned his followers that France did not vote for decline but faced the repercussions of 50 years' worth of taxes and regulations, encouraging Americans not to go down the same path.
DSA背书候选人赢得初选，他们对美国的愿景截然不同 “我热爱美国，因为它是地球上唯一还让人相信可以白手起家的地方。我作为一个自学成才的孩子来到硅谷，改变了我的一生。这种精神是你们国家最宝贵的财富。在投票前，请问自己一个问题：你所支持的纲领，是让美国更像美国，还是更像法国？相信我。你不想成为法国，”勒·波加姆在帖子结尾写道。
DSA-BACKED CANDIDATES ARE WINNING PRIMARIES AND THEIR VISION FOR AMERICA IS VERY DIFFERENT "I love America because it’s the one place on earth where people still believe they can build something from nothing. I came to Silicon Valley as a self-taught kid and it changed my life. That spirit is the most precious thing your country has. Before you vote, ask yourself one question: is the program you’re voting for making America more like America, or more like France? Trust me. You don’t want to be France," Le Pogam ended.
Le Pogam 的帖子迅速走红，被多位保守派评论员以及亿万富翁对冲基金经理比尔·阿克曼转发。
Le Pogam's post quickly went viral, being shared by several conservative commentators along with billionaire hedge fund manager Bill Ackman.
“一位法国人关于如何防止美国变成法国的重要读物，” 阿克曼写道。
"An important read on how we keep America from becoming France, from a Frenchman," Ackman wrote.
Le Pogam 在原评论基础上发表了多条后续帖子，并回应了“民主党人不是社会主义者”以及“美国永远不会变成法国”的指责。他指出，过去25年里，政府补贴的产品——如医疗、教育和住房——成本激增，而未用政府税收资助的商品，如手机或软件，则变得更加实惠。
Le Pogam made multiple follow-up posts to his original comments and responded to the accusations that "Democrats aren't socialists" and "America will never be France." He remarked that over the last 25 years, products subsidized by the government, such as healthcare, education and housing, have exploded in cost while goods not funded with government tax dollars, such as phones or software, have only gotten more affordable.
我逃离了共产主义。美国不能忽视紧急警告信号 “这就是特洛伊木马。它总是以同样的方式奏效。一个真实的问题。一个听起来慷慨的承诺。一个让事情变得更糟的项目。然后该项目的失败成为下一个项目的论据。生活在波兰共产主义下的人们学会了识别谎言以及谎言所戴的面具。谎言从不以谎言的面目出现。它总是以同情的面孔出现，” Le Pogam 写道。
I ESCAPED COMMUNISM. AMERICA MUST NOT IGNORE THE URGENT WARNING SIGNS "That's the Trojan horse. It always works the same way. A real problem. A generous-sounding promise. A program that makes things worse. Then the failure of that program becomes the argument for the next one. People who lived under communism in Poland learned to recognize the lie and the mask the lie wears. The lie never presents itself as a lie. It presents itself as compassion," Le Pogam wrote.
他补充说：“在法国，我们已经走到了这条路的尽头。我们永远无法偿还的债务。买不起房子的年轻人。我们最优秀的人离开了。而且每隔几年，我们的城市就会陷入火海。没有人投票支持这一点。他们一遍又一遍，连续五十年，只投了一个更慷慨的承诺。如果你是共和党人，请把这条信息分享给你生活中的民主党人。不是为了赢得一场争论。而是为了开始一次对话。如果你是民主党人，我不要求你换阵营。我要求你观察这种模式。无论国家何时接管，生活都变得负担不起。不要用更多的政府来修复政府的失败。保持美国本色。主张更少的国家干预，而不是更多。”
He added, "In France we are at the end of that road. Debt we can never repay. Young people who can't afford a home. Our best people leaving. And every few years our cities burn. Nobody voted for this. They voted for one more generous promise, fifty years in a row. If you're a Republican, share this with the Democrat in your life. Not to win an argument. To start a conversation. If you're a Democrat, I'm not asking you to switch teams.
在对福克斯新闻数字版的评论中，Le Pogam 坚持自己的言论，称总体反馈“非常积极”。他还表示支持共和党。
I'm asking you to look at the pattern. Wherever the state took over, life became unaffordable. Don't fix the failures of government with more government. Stay American. Ask for less state, not more." In a comment to Fox News Digital, Le Pogam stood by his comments, saying the reception "has been very positive overall." He also threw his support behind the Republican Party.
“总体而言，我支持共和党。我认为他们的纲领目前是更好地保护美国独有的活力、个人自由和创业精神的那个纲领 — — 而欧洲（尤其是法国）在很大程度上已经放弃了这些价值观，”勒波加姆说。
"In general, I support the Republicans. I believe their platform is currently the one that better protects the dynamism, individual freedom, and entrepreneurial spirit that make America unique — and that Europe (especially France) has largely abandoned," Le Pogam said.
