    August... hmm. Viva Cristo Rey... hmm.

    Feels like the meme maker is trying to tap into the Latin American demographic.

    Probably hot takes, but fuck it.

    man, I hate tradcaths:

    Dumbass reactionaries that felt the icy breeze from the abysmal meaninglessness of existence and decided to go online, stay online, become 'catholic'. They're lucky to have been able to feel that icy breeze just doing nothing, yet they'll never acknowledge that.

    Do they have to experience the 'being born into it' that makes a lot of ex-catholics renounce later in life? No, no need to feel the confusion that a child would feel if told they'll go to Hell at the slightest offense.

    No actual soul-searching, not even Catholic guilt: I bet tradcaths still take shits with the lights on... and you know they jerk off to hentai with abandon.

      Tradcaths are wild lmao. Imagine being a catholic but your whole bit is that you hate the pope for being a commie

      I really do hate tradcaths. Catholicism did a lot of damage to my mental health when I was a kid and I'll likely never recover from it. Intentionally becoming Catholic when you were lucky enough not to be born one is a cruel joke
