Really looking forward to the Truths railing about the new DEI Pope

Has Peter Baker written yet about how the Pope is too old?

You read my mind. Here’s the long-awaited opening for Opus Dei.

They'd probably like to get some of that gold the Vatican has. JD Vance will probably run for Pope.

35rcl.bsky.social•8 hours ago

Probably true

I thought elon anointed trump as new pope?

newellbaldelli.bsky.social•8 hours ago

For anyone who’s read OPUS DEI, this is frightening

erl-king.bsky.social•8 hours ago

I’m old enough to remember when Catholics who bitched about the Pope’s edicts were called protestants.

tiredofcrap.bsky.social•7 hours ago

Well considering they are NOT real Catholics I would hard pass on what they have to say

Opinion. If Xi can choose the next Dalai Lama, Trump should be entitled to select the next Pope.

Speaking of which, has anybody seen Ross Douthat and JD Vance in the same room at the same time? https://bsky.app/profile/numb.comfortab.ly/post/3kxgft6b4lc2a

Nah, that's just the standard "Catholic convert dweeb" look. There's probably a handbook on facial hair trimming.

deadhandgang.bsky.social•8 hours ago

It's a Superman but evil kinda thing. Vance takes off the eyeliner and becomes Ross Douthat. It works like Clark Kent's glasses.

Trying to be Orson Welles but without the gravitas.

Imagine staring up at those faces on an annual basis when it's "lovey dovey" time.

Douthat is the thinking man’s Vance. Or maybe it’s the other way around—it’s hard to say.

jackpondit.bsky.social•8 hours ago

The Vatican blames the Pope’s illness on pneumonia, but real Catholics know he is suffering from the woke mind virus.

mama-mendes.bsky.social•8 hours ago

Real Catholics know Jesus was the first woke person

tiredofcrap.bsky.social•7 hours ago

Correct

Yeah yeah… We know….Trump does a deal with god to disband the conclave and install Vance as the pope…

Well actually, he’ll be demanding half of their artworks.

I pray the Pope recovers from his illness. But having mastered the dangers of vaccines and DEI, and having just watched Conclave, here’s my analysis of the leading contenders for the papacy. 1/x

Kinda hoping that the pope hangs on till at least he's 100 just to spite the haters … and asking forgiveness from God every day for being spiteful. 😜

Get a quick start on that Holy Empire thing.

mama-mendes.bsky.social•8 hours ago

Fuck all the way off - Francis is a real Catholic is Jesus’ mold- not the fake Catholic like JD Vance who are more in the Holy Roman Empire mold, which was not bc at all Christ-like

There’s always one comment on the PitchBot that might not realize it’s biting satire
