Benedict couldn't validly renounce his office, because he ALSO had a defect of consent, being he ALSO never intended to be an orthodox, catholic pope.  Same applies to JP2, Paul 6 and John 23.  All of these anti-popes were in favor of V2 and "updating the Church for modern times".  That's heresy.

Exactly right.  This started with Roncalli who clearly and publicly laid out an agenda to transform the Church.

It's too bad that +Vigano has distanced himself from "the sedevacantists" in this post.  While he says that the root cause goes back to V2 and the pre-Bergoglian V2 papal claimants are responsible for it, he seems afraid to trace this backward to all these guys.

It's clear to me that Roncalli, Montini, Wojtyla, Ratzinger, and Bergoglio have been willing and conscious agents for the deliberate, planned, pre-meditated destruction of the Church by its enemies.  These are not just some liberal-minded Modernist types who happened to be elected to the papacy.  And I also believe that they're not even material popes because Siri was the legitimate pope (canonically) until his death in 1989.

I disagree with you that Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger had a defect of consent upon his acceptance of his election.

Ratzinger held and taught the same heresy regarding the Old Covenant not having been abrogated and remaining salvific for Modern-day Jews that first caused Father Kramer to hold that Bergoglio was not the pope due to manifest heresy.

"He (Joseph Ratzinger) then upholds the Catholic doctrine on the relation of the covenants:   'The whole journey of God with his people finally finds its summary and final figure in the Last Supper of Jesus Christ, which anticipates and carries within itself the Cross and Resurrection. We do not need to discuss the complicated problems of the formation of the two traditions: Mark and Matthew on the one hand, and Luke and Paul on the other. In one case, the Sinai tradition is taken up. What has happened there comes to definitive fulfillment here. Accordingly, the promise of the new covenant of Jeremiah 31 is now a present reality. The Sinai covenant was by its very nature always a promise, an approach to what is final. After all destruction, the new covenant is the love of God that goes as far as the death of the Son. The reestablishment of the Sinai covenant in the New Covenant in Jesus’ blood— that is, in his love that vanquishes death— gives the covenant a new and permanently valid form.'"
