Yeah, but we've only had US presidents for a tenth of the time we've had Popes for. But Popes have been killed (or ordered to be killed) by kings, dictators, and other rulers for centuries. The existence of US presidents is relatively new, as far as Popes are concerned.
Let’s not act like the pope and Catholic Church haven’t been terrible to people across the world for much of the last couple of thousand years. There’s been no pope in my lifetime I’ve respected. This won’t will unlikely change that streak by the time their time passes

No, that other people tell them to like. Don't make them think for themselves.

Or not. Trump kept going on about how he loves the Pope's MAGA brother.

So over/under on when Republicans blame Democrats/Progressives for this

I don't know. Trump's actions against the Pope recently might actually embolden him to take credit for it.

"The day JD Vance killed a Pope it was the worst day of your entire lives. For Jimmy it was a Tuesday."

Christ on sixty seven bicycles, we've reached peak scum of humanity if we're threatening violence against THE MOTHERFUCKING POPE!

Threats against the pope are nothing new. The popemobile is armored as fuck.

What do you mean? Violence against Popes is kind of a tradition at this point.

Not incited by a US president though.

None of this would have happened If he hadn't been so soft on crime.

I don't know if anyone is aware; Pope Leo's brother is a MAGAt.
Another source, enjoy

Isn't that his other brother? That's Louis Prevost who lives in Florida. The brother who lives in Illinois must be John.

My bad, I didn't realize there were three kids in the family.
EmpathicVagrant@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 114d
Something really tickles me about the pope being called a kid, here.

No, his other brother in Florida is.

Ah, damn. Would have been nice for him to catch a dose of his own stupid.
