I haven’t read the whole thread yet, but so far the choice line is:
I like how you just dropped the “Vance is interested in right authoritarianism” like it’s a known fact to base your entire point on. Vance is the clearest demonstration of a libertarian the republicans have in high office. It’s an absurd ad hominem that you try to mask in your wall of text.
Another reason right-wing shitheads are becoming tradorthodox instead of tradcath these days is because they think the current Pope is a woke liberal monster.
That too - a significant section of the tradcath subculture spends most of its time fulminating against “Bergoglio” these days.
Also, if they happen to be the pro-Russian/anti-Ukraine kind of right-wing shithead, then the political alignment of some Orthodox churches may be amenable.
