As a queer femboy;

There is no such thing as a "good" pope. There are bad popes, and there are worse popes. We should count ourselves very, very lucky that right now, we only got a bad pope. But the Catholic Church is an enitity quite like the United States, in that it's so monumentually evil than it even does good in evil ways. I'm not naive enough to think either will ever elect a good leader; my only hope is that their institutions eventually crumble and can be replaced with something better.

Stop pretending this pope is a darling, he's still running a multibillion dollar corporation that has only one souce of income - lying to people.

Cash now, reward after you die. It's an obvious scam that hurts the desperate poor, mentally unstable, and disabled.

Then there's the priests raping children.

Then there's the LGBTQ hate spread by their hate filled religious hate book that they refuse to change.

There's the ultra-conservative teachings they spread to small children, the weird hell fiction that they have to threaten every single child with.

Fuck this pope. Fuck the last pope. Fuck the nazi pope before that one. Fuck catholicism, and fuck those that support it.

Oh wait the Catholic Church is a bunch of diddling queerphobes?

I'm shocked!

From another post "people surprised the pope is catholic"

Yeah he has criticized vance and Trump on social media, but he represents an evil organization that teaches harmful things. He personally has taught those harmful things. He is catholic

Pope Francis allegedly used the term "frociaggine" once, which is an Italian derogative term for "homosexuality". The full sentence was "There is already too much frociaggine" meaning inside the catholic institution. I don't remember what was the discussion taking place in the Vatican, but this is just to say that all of them are phobic bigots deep down.

Rather than sharing THIS on each individual comment i agree with, I'll just make it it's own comment.

Cheers.
