Newly converted "tradcaths" being surprised and angry about the popes authority, then reinventing protestantism will never not be funny to me.

It's still fun tho! Like check this unironic totally-not-heretical-not-at-all-schism about "chad catholics"
Elsewhere the user is appealing to civil law lmao The pope is the supreme ruler of your religion you dolt, just stay evangelical if you don't like it.

Add it to the huge list of examples of American Catholics being Protestants with extra gold.
These same people loose their shit if you read them catholic social teaching and that it counts as a mortal sin to be agaisnt preferential treatment for the poor.
I was raised catholic in a super liberal church in a super liberal city, i am not at all religious as an adult but whenever i see the unhinged shit that conservative american catholics get up to i can't even imagine what sort of stuff goes on at their masses that results in them squaring that with catholic social teachings. Of course the archbishop did transfer our super cool priest from Kenya to a racist white suburban church (but i repeat myself) as punishment for refusing to allow signature-gathering to overturn same-sex marriage in Washington at the church so i actually can easily imagine it lol
The answer is: they don’t know it exist. I had to explain to a bunch of Catholics what shit like the Misericordia et misera and other pro life edicts from the pope says about being pro life (ie anti war, anti death penalty, pro preferential treatment for poor) and they always accuse me of lying.
