Appropriation, or Something
White people using the words of one Chinese to attack another? Don't the Jesuits know any better?

Compromise
They might as well talk about Judeo-Christian values. Italian bishops promote Catholic-Jewish dialogue as antisemitic speech increases
Mass Culture as a Product for Sale
I watched MauLer's video on The Rise of Skywalker. "Rey Skywalker." A fitting end that summarizes this Disney/Lucasfilm feminist and cultural Marxist Mary Sue Jedi princess propaganda garbagefest.
Someone with more talent and time needs to write about the separation of culture from a people and it being in the hands of the wealthy few to control and sell. Let Hollywood burn. And something about memory, continuity, story-telling, and something being "canonical." Can someone psychologically succeed in isolating the original trilogy from everything else that came after, and just hold on to that story? Maybe. Isn't culture just about entertaining the individual? But what if it is more than that?

Woke Casting
'The Lord of the Rings' has found its fellowship!

There was no way the glory of Peter Jackson's "Lord of the Rings" trilogy could ever be recaptured, nor would he be allowed to cast the actors/actresses he did in the late 1990s without howls of protests. Cherish those films. https://t.co/LcRL5F52fU

Delusions of a Feminist Bureaucrat
Francesca Di Giovanni
CNA/CWR: Pope appoints first woman to managerial position in Secretariat of State
Pope appoints woman under-secretary in Vatican Secretariat of State
Pope Francis appoints Dr Francesca Di Giovanni as under-secretary in the Section for Relations with States. She will be coordinating the multilateral sector.
“A woman may have certain aptitudes for finding commonalities, healing relationships with unity at heart,” she said. “I hope that my being a woman might reflect itself positively in this task, even if they are gifts that I certainly find in my male colleagues as well.”
CNA/CWR: Pope appoints first woman to managerial position in Secretariat of State
Di Giovanni, 66, was appointed undersecretary for the Section in Relations in States. She has worked as an official in the department for more than 25 years, with specialties including humanitarian law, communications, migrants and refugees, and the status of women, according to Vatican Media.
She will now work with Monsignor Miroslaw Wachowski, who also serves as undersecretary for the Section in Relations in States, but focuses on bilateral affairs. Di Giovanni’s field of multilateral affairs focuses on the interactions between inter-governmental organizations such as the United Nations.
Di Giovanni hails from Palermo, Italy. She has a degree in law and has worked for the Focolare Movement.

Pozzed Programming
Saw plenty of commercials for products and TV shows that were full of girl power stuff or some aspect of the SJW agenda, including a commercial for the 2020 Passat featuring a female secret service agent or something. That's not available on Youtube yet.
