After castigating capitalism, and saying nice things about socialism, the pope is now very much in damage control mode.
Something the current US president is very good at, damage control, by the way...
It has become necessary for the pope to "deny" he is a marxist, but now he is in even deeper.
His latest pronouncements are not helping him much either, and are actually making things worse...
He says he knows plenty of marxists who are good people... really?
Does he know any good people who are sodomites or abortionists?
Not a word about all the evil marxism has caused, and is continuing to cause... only how "good" these people are.
Does he know any conservatives, catholic or christian, whom he deems as "good" people? If so, why the deafening silence?
Is he aware of anything good resulting from capitalism? Particularly within his own church?
Where would his church be without capitalism? Where would it be, if it depended only on the socialists?
But perhaps most problematic for the dear leader is this particular quote...
" They say the [cup] of capitalism will overflow and trickle down to the poor, but this never happens "
Really?
Where is this man from? Mars? After seemingly throwing marxism under the bus, there he goes again, spouting marxist lies...
We would expect such incredible nonsense from the aparatchik of Soviet Russia, China, N Korea or Cuba, but from the pope?
God help us!
