struck me as the most Christ-like thing that has come out of the Catholic church, so I was a bit befuddled as to why so many Catholics have nothing but vitriol for it
just answered your own question. Although I maintain that's an organised religion issue not a Catholic one. Jesus was after all literally killed by the religious authorities (or at least they had him killed if you want to be technical the Romans killed him). Just as it was cops who made jesus wear a crown of thorns
Mate, religious or not, people will 99% of times put their class interests first.
So that's why rich and middle class catholics hate Liberation Theology. Also, even if they are poor, their rich or controlled by the rich priest will tell them to hate that thing.
tradCaths aren't even Catholic they technically schismed off over vatican 2. Not for a sensible reason like being mad they didn't call it Vatican 2: Christian boogaloo either but because it said they had to be less homophobic and racist
Yeah you can do whatever you want and be a protestant as protestantism is defined by it's relation to Catholisism not by any specific set of beliefs.
There may be cultural reasons they still associate themselves with Catholisism in America for example Protestantism is culturally associated with whiteness and the bourgeoise while Catholism with poor brown skinned immigrants (as opposed to wealthy white protestant immigrants).
So both anti-Catholisism and teetotalerism have a history of being associated with or dogwhistles for anti-immigrant politics.
this gives an example of how religious identities are often not actually based on religious differences so much as cultural and explains why they may have cultural reasons to still define themselves as Catholic. (this is for the original and real life batshit religious movement from the early 60's the tradCath teenagers are LARPing as).
the weird nerds LARPing as a weird religious offshoot of Catholism are just stupid teenagers as far as I could tell and probably don't even know what eucharist is let alone have extemely strong opinions about it
Tradcaths took /r/modernism, leaving me with /r/modernart which people think means contemporary art or bad art. I wouldn't have to do any moderation whatsoever if tradcaths didn't exist. Nationalise the Vatican and turn it into a homeless shelter.
Log off twitter and go outside. Voilá, it never existed.

I regret to inform you that there may be reactionary catholics outside (this is not a catholic vs protestant thing I love catholics)
Of all the religions on earth for a right wing dickhead to have, catholicism is the most looser of all. Call them loosers.

But they have protestantism right there!
Oh wait, they absolutely need their priests to be sexless? Is protestantism too feminist by non having whatever nuns are supossed to be?

Yanks are the only ones doing religion zapping, as if they are in a salad bar.
Reactionaries in any other side of the world stick to whatever religion their grandparents have.

I mean, technically it's already nationalised since it's a sovereign state. But yes, turn it (back into) a home of the oppressed and needy.
