I count a total of 63 Tweets. Most of them would fit quite well as left wing, Marxist and environmental paganist political spin. I am reminded that this is the day that Laudato si was issued. What a bombardment of political propaganda.
This was the English Twitter account. How many were there in other languages?
As Barona states in the combox, "Not once was the Holy Name of Our Lord Jesus Christ mentioned." Not once!
Are we really stupid enough to believe that he Tweeted all these? Any of them? He can barely speak English! Did he Tweet these in other languages? Did he sit down with the Secretary of State or Fathers Lombardi or Rosica to say, "This is what I want to Tweet today?"
Look, I've not been gentle with this Pope on what he what he says, but let's be real.
There are people in the Vatican who have a diabolical political agenda who are using the Pope for their own advantage. It is disgusting that they have seized social media for their own use and to do it in the name of the Bishop of Rome, the Vicar of Christ is reprehensible.
The bottom line is this; the Pope himself allows it. Either he is naive and does not know what he is allowing these malefactors to do in his name or does know about it and he is supporting and encouraging it.
Either way, it's a problem.
And this is not magisterial teaching.
It is utter bovine product of consumption.
