The recent developments aligning the Church with communism are horrific.

Vatican ii was supposed to condemn communism (which would've been super helpful), but instead, the Council was hijacked by Jews, freemasons, and communists and the original purpose of the Council was dusted.

Exactly. I think independently-moderated sites can have a real positive impact atm.
