@mvenuti1980 1. He didn't say they are interchangable
2. Benedict also met with the Archbishop of Canteberry

Does this imply I should have remained Anglican if the rival episcopates are interchangeable?

JUST IN: Vatican releases photos of Pope Leo XIV’s meeting today with Sarah Mullally. In his address to her, the Pope noted that: “While much progress has been made on some historically divisive issues, new problems have arisen in recent decades, rendering the pathway to full communion more difficult to discern.” Of course, chief among these new problems is the fact that a woman dressed in liturgical attire is now being passed off — and celebrated by the Vatican and even by the Pope — as someone who seemingly has valid Orders when she doesn’t — first because she’s a woman and second because she’s an Anglican. So much so that, during her visit to St. Peter’s Basilica on Sunday, a Vatican official (Archbishop Flavio Pace, Secretary of the Dicastery for Promoting Christian Unity) bowed before her in the Clementine Chapel — one of the most sacred places in the Vatican grottoes, located just next to the tomb of St. Peter — and made the Sign of the Cross as though receiving a real blessing from her. Absolutely absurd. More photos and full address here: vatican.va/content/leo-xi…

@AdamA34757 @woke8yearold Sometimes (if the person can realistically) he will advice them to make more money, but yeah that all that good finances are. More money in, less out. Invest in a diverse portafolio. Thats it. You did it.
English
@woke8yearold His show sucks he just gives basic advice like spending less and buying ETFs while yelling at his guests the whole show.

@Llllddddd114 @Scorpion8615 @MakeUSAVAT @The_Davos_Man This is because
1. They were attacked by surprised (even thou the US told them this was about to happen)
2. They had significantly less equipment.
3. Russian stradigies just valued soldiers life less in an attempt to win (This is not new in Russia, it has always done this)
English
@Llllddddd114 @Scorpion8615 @MakeUSAVAT @The_Davos_Man So the statistic is that communist did most of the dying (in the European front) but that doesn't mean they did most of the fighting. The Axis had similar casualties in from the western and eastern powers. The USSR just was worse at keeping its people alive.
English
To be opposed to communism is to defend liberal democracy from totalitarianism. It is a good thing.

@Llllddddd114 @Scorpion8615 @MakeUSAVAT @The_Davos_Man Commies: Fascism is actually liberalism in its final form (ignore that we allied with Nazi Germany to invade Poland)
Liberalism when it sees fascism:

@Scorpion8615 @MakeUSAVAT @The_Davos_Man German empire and nazi germany are philosophical contuniation of liberalism

@Llllddddd114 @MakeUSAVAT @The_Davos_Man Both world wars were caused by the central powers of europe which were not liberal.
Non liberal countries also intervened in the middle east, is just that they all lost their power over time.
The US sided with Egypt in the Suez crisis are you team british?
English
@MakeUSAVAT @The_Davos_Man World wars? American intervention in middle east? Suez crisis? Sryian civil war? The monist truth system of liberalism cannot endure any other systems / governments rejecting to play with the rules of liberal system that is rooted in "liberty of communication" aka free trade

@ljmontello Then how come the party that explicitly ran against the things you want won last time?
English
Americans *aren't* actually right wing if you look at the policies we support.
We're a corporatacracy with two bought off parties winning or losing on fringe issues & vibes.
Guillermo Ramirez@virtualnerd2
@ljmontello The point stands. If American is more right wing, the realistic options are more left wing. Unless you are arguing for violent revolution, it is just a fact about democracy.

Sir....
You live in Finland.
Please STFU lecturing Americans being too far left because we reject a political spectrum that demands we support a Democratic Party running on the same platform your center-right National Coalition Party with no hope of anything but slow decline.
Sampo Naatan Lähteenaro 🇫🇮@Teawisher
@ljmontello In politics none of the realistic options are usually satisfying Some far left stuff is simply alienating to a lot of people and especially to working class men. Promoting it helps the right "Privilege talk" like yours is often a way to avoid having to present logical arguments
English
@ljmontello @hackagibson From the evidence that I have seen while poor people are more to the left economically (still center left but more left) than the electorate, they are also more to the right socially than the electorate.
English
@ljmontello @hackagibson Do you have any evidence that
1. Poor people don't vote because they don't like their choices
AND
2. Those people would in fact vote for what you want.
Because "the people who don't vote are secretly in my side" is the rallying cry of every niche movement.
English
Privleged liberals like Contrapoint define wisdom as accepting the status quo because they rather prop up a system that still mostly works for them than risk facing any of the hardship they see as being for "other" people.
WOR$T JOSHIPGIRL IN AOTEAROA@joshipgiirl
Natalie thinks the left wants too much, and that they think she has a courage problem. Personally I would diagnose it as her having an optimism problem that prevents her from strongly advocating for bigger change, because she doesn't believe it can ever happen.
English
@hackagibson @ljmontello The poor vote disproportionally democrat, because they cannot afford to give up slightly better for the dreams of leftists.
English
@ljmontello the people who actually need change (the poor, the incarcerated, the homeless, the disabled, the undocumented) can't afford to wait for the perfect argument. they need disruption. and disruption is messy.

@locustic @senorstrong @MaasterMatt @LoganSpang12847 @basedganyu Okay, I'm gonna block you since you seem to be an unplesant antisemite.

@virtualnerd2 @senorstrong @MaasterMatt @LoganSpang12847 @basedganyu Maybe in other countries like commiefornia and jew york, but not in America.

"This is a trap!!!! You can't do that!!!! It's illegal!!!!!" You know what else is illegal? Taking a baseball bat to my mailbox. Enjoy your new plastic hands
My moms caregiver@mymomcare
People who have lived in the country understand this!
English
@locustic @senorstrong @MaasterMatt @LoganSpang12847 @basedganyu Yeah, that is how castle doctrine work. Which presumably is how your state works. That is not true in all states.
English
@virtualnerd2 @senorstrong @MaasterMatt @LoganSpang12847 @basedganyu Actually I could have killed any or all of them and been perfectly fine with the law. They didn't give me a reason to, and now they're serving their respective sentences, doing community service, and/or paying off huge fines.
English
@locustic @senorstrong @MaasterMatt @LoganSpang12847 @basedganyu To be clear, my point is that this is not the case everywhere, in many of these threads I have made clear that local laws may change your liability. In fact I have already brought up in this thread that in Ohio it for sure isn't. But you should be cautius.
English
@virtualnerd2 @senorstrong @MaasterMatt @LoganSpang12847 @basedganyu 1. They did. They're still in prison.
2. "Shall not be infringed" is pretty clear.
English
@locustic @senorstrong @MaasterMatt @LoganSpang12847 @basedganyu 1. On the composition of your mailbox, that would almost certantly only come up if someone tried to sue you.
2. Gun laws are also different in allot of states tend to be wildly more permissive.
English
@virtualnerd2 @senorstrong @MaasterMatt @LoganSpang12847 @basedganyu My mailbox is on an i-beam, surrounded by a small flower garden, and made of wrought iron.
I've had to pull a rifle on thieves trying to steal it more often than I've had retards try to hit it, and every time the laws on my side.
English
@locustic @senorstrong @MaasterMatt @LoganSpang12847 @basedganyu It really depends on the situation. You can find cases going both ways, so unless you live in Ohio, you will need to look to your local oridinances and case law to know which way your case is likely to go.
English
@virtualnerd2 @senorstrong @MaasterMatt @LoganSpang12847 @basedganyu The law does infact say that I can reinforce my mailbox and the post it stands on with any material I wish and that anything that happens to you is your own fault.
English
@locustic @senorstrong @MaasterMatt @LoganSpang12847 @basedganyu The law doesn't care that it is illegal. You do in fact have to care about the well being of people doing illegal things. That is the law. Suck it up.
English
@virtualnerd2 @senorstrong @MaasterMatt @LoganSpang12847 @basedganyu There's no harm happening, it's just a mailbox. It's probably a good idea for you to not try to hit it with a bat, but that's always been illegal so it's not a concern.
English
@locustic @JohnDoe59659341 @ajkkl21 @senorstrong @MaasterMatt @LoganSpang12847 @basedganyu I never have.
English
@virtualnerd2 @JohnDoe59659341 @ajkkl21 @senorstrong @MaasterMatt @LoganSpang12847 @basedganyu Stop hitting mailboxes with bats.
English
@locustic @senorstrong @MaasterMatt @LoganSpang12847 @basedganyu A person breaking the law doesn't give you the right to harm them. If you do a thing that people do explicitly to harm people and then people get harmed, you will probably be found liable, even with very little evidence about intent.
English
@virtualnerd2 @senorstrong @MaasterMatt @LoganSpang12847 @basedganyu You can't tell me what my intentions are, Professor X, but interfering with the mail is a federal offense.
