yes-honey-left can we please stop bombing the Palestinian kids

maybe-later-honey umm if you keep talking like that, you better go vote for Trump!

[-] Pentacat@hexbear.net 44 points 1 month ago

People need to yell “please stop murdering Palestinian kids” at politicians until they all kill themselves.

Both sides are extremists, the reasonable middle ground is to have a president who can stare at things

I'm never not amused by how to Democrats, whoever is currently the Dem candidate is the coolest person ever. The candidate could be a literal wet fart in a bag and we'd be hearing about its powerful presence and sharp wit.

They're ecstatic they get to do that bullshit again. Their heart wasn't in it with all the Dark Brandon shit because they knew deep down it was too much even for them, then it became completely untenable after the debate to the point that all the people that were telling you that you were ageist and ableist about Biden's "stutter" had to acknowledge reality a little, at least for awhile. Now that The Adults In The Room at the DNC have swapped in Kamala, they're allowed to go back to writing fanfics. Copmala is slay kween Wonder Woman and Tim Walz is the dad you wish you had who's gonna go over to Trump's house and kick his ass because his son JD Vance has been bullying you or whatever. These are deeply unserious people.

Somehow they are even worse than Polish catholics who got to the absolute peak of nonsensical personality cult for pope John Paul 2, but only because he was a Pole (and most likely because CIA pumped millions in church propaganda) the next popes barely even elicit a reaction from them.

The JPII derangement was real, even in the global south, where not even nationalism or race had anything to do with it. I think he was just a very media savvy pope, and having the CIA backing him up definitely didn't hurt.

It was pure PR, guy himself didn't had even a trace of any personality and expressed any signs of being human roughly once per 5 years. Though compared to a nazi mummy like Pius XII he was... actually also a nazi mummy but with good PR.

I remember there being a lot of spin about how him being friendly with prominent leaders in other religions meant he was this transformative pope bringing the church into the twentieth/twenty-first century.

[-] PolandIsAStateOfMind@lemmygrad.ml 7 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Yes, but after two decades of this he issued proclamation "Dominus Iesus" where he basically said that only roman catholicism offer salvation and heretics and heathens go to hell, which is in line in him being ultraconservative hypocrite and his entire ecumenism was a PR stunt. Seriously it was such an enbarrasment that after initial confusion everyone including its nominal author (Ratzinger), current pope Francis and literally every other prominent religious figure on Earth (including even Patriarch of Moscow against whom it was mainly aimed) decided to just completely ignore and never speak about it despite it's still valid declaration from infallibe pope precisely in the matters of faith.
Except of that he was CIA pope heavy using church to destroy socialism everywhere he could especially in Poland, he also ordered to hide by all means necessary pedophile scandals in church, protecting the biggest pedo net in the history (Epstein was complete amateur in comparison, he just had richer clients). There were also multiple financial affairs in church with murders in background.
And why i called him nazi? Well he beatified Alojzije Stepinać, a well known nazi so he must had liked what he stood for very much (Ustase, Stepinać stood for Ustase).

I’ve got to imagine that’s happened semi-regularly throughout the history of the Catholic Church. Pope no one liked issued some crackpot decree, everyone just memoryholed it when they died instead of dealing with the thorny theological issue of nullifying it. Flash forward a few centuries, the only people aware of it are the most nerd Catholic scholars.

[-] PolandIsAStateOfMind@lemmygrad.ml 3 points 1 month ago

Yeah. There was many delusional, demented or senile popes through the ages. Vatican archives must have literal tons of such documents. But papal infallibility complicated the issue, and it's a relatively new thing, only introduced in... 1870.
