I am not one for the following reasons.

1.  Ratzinger was not a good Pope when he occupied the chair.  Just another modernist heretic.
2.  He resigned and he confirmed TWICE directly to the press that he did so of his own free will and explicitly denied he was put under pressure to resign.
3.  He is so old and decrepit now that even if he was the Pope, the he would just be an old decrepit modernist heretic.

What if the next Pope is just as bad if not worse than Francis. Then what? Taglevacantism? Its a dead end road once an individual starts to take matters into their own hand this way.
The issue was never about a Pope being bad or good, it only concerns if the resignation valid or not. Thus if Tagle gets legitimately elected, the "Bennyvacantists" would have to recognize him as Pope, just as they did John XXIII to Benedict XVI. So "Bennyvacantists" eventually merges back on the same road as R&R.

I see. So perhaps better termed "Resignationism" as that is the real issue. But then again, would this have really been an issue if Francis wasn't a communist protestant?

Correct, the question of whether the resignation was vailed or not is the real issue, or more specifically, was there "substantial error"
You are also correct, in that had not Bergoglio been such a flaming liberal commie, would anyone have even noticed or cared if the resignation contained substantial error.
