I’m still cracking up over Frank Walker’s term “Swishops”.  Why didn’t I think of that!!!!

But on a very serious tip, sure enough, the “There is one Pope, and it is Francis” quote attributed last week to Pope Benedict has been revealed to be a total fabrication, concocted deep in the bowels of… wait for it… Vatican News (formerly Vatican Radio).

WHAT??  People of no integrity willing to lie, support and enable criminals, sex perverts and an Antipope who is probably the False Prophet Forerunner of the Antichrist in order to keep a sh***y job in Rome and be invited to all the best luncheons and cocktail parties?  WHAT??  I simply CANNOT believe it!!

Wouldn’t it be funny if one of the main “highly placed Vatican sources” and sock puppets behind the Trad, Inc. “Francis is Pope shut up stupid!” echo chamber were an entrenched Vatican Radio/News employee who worked on the top floor of the Vatican Radio office building – hence “highly placed source inside the Vatican”? Wouldn’t that be a hoot?

It’s fake news folks, and Frank Walker’s term “the BenedictBot” has been proved true.  Words are being put in Pope Benedict’s mouth and have been all along, and we are definitely in a post-truth paradigm in which everything attributed to Pope Benedict MUST be assumed to be not genuine.  I take no satisfaction in this.  Quite the opposite.  It is a horrifying thought.  We talked about this in a recent Barnhardt Podcast, #084, specifically in terms of the emerging technology of deep-fake video algorithms, etc., and what a truly terrifying descent into chaos the human race is now making. Hagan lio, indeed.

HERE IS THE LIFESITE NEWS REPORTAGE.  

Pray for Pope Benedict XVI, the Papacy, and Holy Mother Church – One, Holy, Catholic, Apostolic and VISIBLE.
