As someone long guilty of chronic forum use, I feel qualified to spot someone who is posting just to hear their own ideas. That was Ladislaus. This is a guy who literally named ideas after himself.

He passed as smart before those who didn't know any better, and the way neophyte trads sat at his feet turned him into an egomaniac, or unleashed an egomania already there. Look through his posting history, he found disagreement almost altogether intolerable. He was incapable of telling someone they were wrong, he had to call them "stupid", "liar", etc.

The usual Ladislaus posting format was: "False. You are an idiot. [Two paragraphs of pseudo-intellectualism]. I can't believe you're so stupid."

That's the format of someone who is deeply insecure about their ideas. Genuine philosophers and theologians don't write like that. And people of good judgment and discernment know not to spend most of their time casting pearls before swine Day after day, week after week, year after year.

Several times over the years when we've butted heads, I've attempted private communications with him, without ever any reply or acknowledgement. He's not the only one, but that's a major red flag in my book. Suggests someone who doesn't understand, care, or want to understand/care that they're interacting with real people. Everyone on CI is just an audience member to the celebrity of Lad.

But who are we kidding-- I'd be shocked if he's actually done posting.

Nearly all traditional priests also believe in exceptions to infallible dogma (EENS) which is at the very least material heresy. Many Trad priests also believe the new rites for ordination and consecration are fine. Many are also ignorant when it comes to Fr Feeney, choosing to believe in judaeo-masonic propaganda that their superiors taught them. Many also believe that someone outside the Body of Christ can also somehow be a member of the Church through the soul of the Church even though this is contrary to Catholic teaching.

Lad was not deranged on Trump. Trump is exceedingly pro Jєωιѕн, passed noahide laws last time he was in office, and loves taking credit for operation warp speed.

It seems crazy to me that you can 'support' someone who is evil simply because the other options are more evil. Personally I wouldn't, similar to how I didn't take the covid gene therapy, I just didn't take it.

I see what you mean, I guess I am a newbie. I'm not familiar with the membership levels. I'm sure you're busy in the kitchen today, so I appreciate the attention your giving me. So get back in there. Happy Thanksgiving.
