A Novus Ordo Trad is a particular Catholic Who is Communion with the Novus Ordo Church. This kind of trad is ONLY a trad out of sentimentalism: THey PREFER the rites of the past, it just SEEMS more holy. THey LIKE the prayers of old.
In other words, they do not see the fact that the Novus Ordo is completely compromised and fully rejects tradition.
They have NO THEOLOGICAL BASIS for their preference. They may THINK the Latin Mass is "Better" but they still will attend a Paul VI Mess when it's inconvenient to attend a Tridentine mass.
In other words, they are in communion with those who HATE and DISPARAGE the Tradition of the Church, and they think this is acceptable, and "well and enough."
It does not enter into their mind that the Mass of St. Pius V is THEOLOGICALLY superior, and orthodox, and the Mess of Paul VI is Theologically Heterodox, and OBJECTIVELY inferior to the Tridentine Mass.
They see the current hierarchies actions as fully legitimate, and do not question the fact that the rites of EVERY SINGLE SACRAMENT, ESPECIALLY the rite of Holy Orders, has been butchered.
For this reason, they do not reject the Vatican II reforms, but indeed , they tolerate them, and CHOOSE to be in COMMUNION with a hierarchy that is ACTIVELY PROMOTING theological concepts that DESTROY the basis of the rites that they hold out of "Nostalgia."
In fact, NOSTALGIA is the only real BASIS which the Vatican II Sect can give for ALLOWING Tridentine masses to be said at all. They will never admit that they have screwed it up. BUt, they want to keep as many people in their sect as possible: SO they lure people in with FALSE traditionalism, which is based, like I said, on sentimentality.
THAT cannot continue. Traditionalists are waking up. Sooner or later, a traditionalist will have to realize that he is actually a sedevacantist Catholic.
When that happens, after grieving, perhaps we will find a way to Cohere and to march on the Vatican and set things right.
I think Assisi III will be a breaking point for several people.
