Eniko (moved ➡ gamedev.place)Let people be happy the new pope isn't a nazi inquisitor who would accelerate us towards fascism and WW3
I really really need people to internalize that "oh thank fuck this person is not nearly as bad as the alternatives could have been" is not actually an endorsement
fritzoidsRight! Like my first reaction when it was announced that a US-American had been elected pope was "Oh, shitshitshit!" Because, yknow some US-dioceses are known to be on the very extremely reactionary end of catholicism.
This guy at least sounds like he has potential for growth (like Francis, who some of my Latinamerican Boomers were very sceptical of and who turned out to be Not The Worst™️).
La Guiri@eniko we are rising up from two popes who ordered, allowed or shrugged off priests being murdered for having lefty politics. Of course any improvement is a relief.
