That's not a crazy Catholic thing though? It's a pretty basic cath belief. No birth control, no masturbation, no gay sex and all… just because many do it anyways doesn't mean it's an uncommon belief lol.
The more “liberal” or left Catholics ease up on this. Thomas Merton flat out said that if you think gay sex is more sinful then masturbarion you are wrong, and a lot of jesuit thinkers have talked about the overhype for madtuebation for ages.
I think this is in general a huge issue with Catholics measuring sins. Because this shit shown here is the logical conclusion.
Catholics believe that thinking of commiting a sin is the same as acting on it "I confess that I have sinned in my thoughts, my words and my deeds… through my fault, my most grievous fault".
I don't know how a gay couple who doesn't have sex (and isn't asexual) would avoid like… being horny every once in a while. It would be a life of sin for them if they stay together.
To be the devil's advocate here there are a ton of catholics in the world and the pope expressing even a small amount of tolerance may help some of them to rethink their beliefs on gay people

Crazy Catholics believe that if your fuck can’t cause another, tiny Catholic to be created, it’s sinful.

that's not crazy, in fact it's perfectly consistent with the mainstream pro-natalist ideology of liberalism.

Thinking of doing gay sex is very sinful idk what to tell you
What happened is these people are completely delusional. I don't even think it's motivated reasoning, if that were the case I'd expect more anger.

Listening the modern Pope speak like "I do not… not think queers are people" and Anglo libs go nuts over it is an experience.

It's wrong but it's the same as adultery/premarital sex, essentially.
