An embodiment of Latin centre-left Catholicism. Not a real comrade, but progressive in issues that aren’t key to the Church. Preaches love and peace which, although with its contradictions, is consistent enough to denounce the greatest atrocities out our time. A “live and let live” Pope, for better or for worse.
Given the Church’s role as a reactionary cudgel over the past 200 years, and specifically during the Cold War, he was a breath of fresh air. Can’t wait for some out of touch European to start telling third worlders how to pray the proper German way again.
