    The rest of the world should take this approach. If everyone just plain ignored and ghosts the US’s emissaries it would be pretty funny.

      Not just their emissaries. Ghost everyone up to FatBoy Tangerine, and beyond.

      If there is ever another voted in president and this new ‘leader’ is a decent person, not just a tRUMP puppet. Then ghost them as well for allowing that orange turd to walk free after all the treasonous shit he pulled in his first term.

    Pope meets with JD Vance.

    Says the Trump admin’s immigration policy is a grave sin.

    Refuses to elaborate.

    Dies.

    Based Holiness.

      The “refuses to elaborate” is simple, Mathew 25 31-46.

      It quite clearly says that you are to welcome the immigrant, feed the poor, care for the sick, and visit the prisoners.

      Failure to do any of that is a straight shot to hell, no matter how much you claim to love god, you actually have to do the work, or it’s off to hell.

      Fun fact, Mathew 25 is the only place in the bible that references sending ordinary people to hell. All that fire and brimstone, it’s actually in that one passage. Nowhere else does hell show up for normal people, just fallen angles and shit.

          Post a source.

          So far everyone I’ve seen making this accusation are one word replacement away from looking like an unhinged 4Chan rant about (((Them))).

                You want a source that it’s zionist, and then compare it to “(((them)))” stuff from 4chan which is not antizionist but antisemitic. That is an extremely important difference, and if you refuse to acknowledge that difference you’re conflating anti-imperialism with Nazism which is crazy.

                  Antisemitic folks like to make heavy usage of euphemisms to mask antisemitic topics behind socially acceptable language. 4Chan uses ‘anti-globalism’ as the euphemism for Jews.

                  Similar to how the ML instance uses ‘anti-imperialist’ talking points to push pro-Russian imperialism and anti-Ukraine talking points.

    The Catholic Church has never lived down its association with the last Nazis that rose to power, they aren’t making that mistake again.

    “Fuck those guys.” - current Pope.

      The catholic church strongly opposed the Nazis. A lot of christians were killed by the Nazis because of this. The pope is more like: like: “Fuck, not those guys again”

        I was gonna say, IIRC the Nazis kept trying to hide in ancient cathedrals, because they thought the allies wouldn’t bomb them. The Pope at the time told the allies to burn and bomb the Nazis out.

    Could it be claimed that JD killed the pope? Pretty sus that he had a brief meeting and the man was dead hours later.
