Trump’s team has a new warning for America’s youth.
A Conservative Warning About Technology, Loneliness, and the Future of America
Vice President JD Vance is sounding the alarm about a crisis facing America’s youth: the collapse of real relationships and family formation due to dating apps and artificial intelligence. In a recent meeting with Pope Leo XIV in Rome, Vance raised deep concerns about the cultural shift away from faith, family, and traditional values — warning that modern technology is leading young Americans down a path of isolation and moral confusion.
“Apps Like Tinder and Bumble Are Undermining the American Family”
Vance didn’t mince words. He said dating platforms like Tinder, Hinge, and Bumble are doing more damage than most realize. “They’re destroying how young men and women connect,” he said in an interview. “If they’re not dating, they’re not getting married. And if they’re not getting married, they’re not building families.”
This message hits home for many Americans concerned about the declining birth rate, the postponement of marriage, and the breakdown of the nuclear family. The Vice President — a devout Catholic and advocate for pro-family policy — is among the few leaders openly pushing back against this cultural decay.
Artificial Intelligence and the Rise of Digital Isolation
Vance also issued a stark warning about the rise of AI and its psychological toll on the next generation. “Instead of meeting someone at church or through friends, young people are forming emotional attachments to AI chatbots,” he said. “That’s not just bizarre — it’s dangerous.”
He described how technology can act like a digital Band-Aid, tricking users into feeling connected while deepening their loneliness. “AI offers dopamine without accountability. It doesn’t build character. It doesn’t promote virtue.”
Faith, Family, and the Fight Against AI Corruption
Pope Leo XIV, echoing concerns voiced by Pope Leo XIII during the Industrial Revolution, shared Vance’s unease over how artificial intelligence could reshape human behavior and erode spiritual life. The two leaders reportedly discussed how the Church and conservative policymakers must respond to these rapidly changing cultural forces.
Vance emphasized that the dangers go beyond just broken relationships — cybersecurity threats and China’s aggressive use of AI technology are also on the horizon. “This isn’t just about love and marriage. This is about the survival of our national identity.”
Conservatives Applaud Vance for Taking a Stand
Across America, conservatives are praising JD Vance for standing up for traditional values in the face of technological overreach. His message resonates with millions who believe the future of the country depends on strong families, moral clarity, and resistance to the dehumanizing effects of Big Tech.
