[Robert Moynihan:] Dr. De Mattei — a leading, generally conservative Catholic intellectual in Italy who has been a friend of Archbishop Viganò for many years — made a startling allegation two days ago which has gone viral.
Hard to imagine. Viganò, who condemned the Council and denounced a "parallel church", a friend of many years of de Mattei. Viganò a friend of many years of the TFPista, disciple and hagiographer of Plínio Corrêa de Oliveira, the
prophet man-god of Higienópolis. Now they're divided about the question: To wear or not to wear a tin foil hat. To wear or not to wear a mask. To see or not to see all the fraud, conspirasy, and aggression of governments against their own people.
I can understand that most CI-members in this thread put hope in Viganò. But I think, what de Mattei does is good for all. For those who put hope in Viganò, those who are unsure in times of universal deceit, and finally for those who mistrust or reject Viganò. The attack of de Mattei may well bring relief for all, in the near future. Some will have to rethink their approach, but they'll still be relieved.
