this is relevant. the Catholic church played a key role in Brazil's 1964 coup d'etat, there was even the involvement of an American priest which was a fucking CIA agent :agony:
that said the church is a bit of a mixed bag today.
that might be true, I don't really follow the inner politics of the Catholic Church. all I know is that there are some pretty high profile (in terms of visibility, not hierarchical position) people in the Church that are progressives who believe in liberation theology and others who are fascist-lite.
The Pope seems to be making a pretty big effort to rehabilitate liberation theology in the eyes of the church. What exactly that means remains to be seen, but the ire that he's drawn from the tradcaths is cool either way.
tradcaths get mad about it down here in montaña liberal but immediately get dunked on by even the normie reactionary catholics for going against the pope, theres some absolutely massive groups on fb full of insane catholic infighting its truly great stuff
