Pope Francis experienced a critical asthmatic respiratory crisis, requiring oxygen and blood transfusions due to low platelets.
He remains alert but in more pain than the previous day.

That’s a fallacy, or a strawman, or a scarecrow, I can’t decide which of these.
He’s already as bad as
, just in small ways.
Saying that he’s good because he’s not doing the Musk salute is similar to saying Putin is not a belligerent fascist dictator because he has elections and doesn’t have fascist ideology.
They (Vatican) literally have a representative at dealing with oriental Catholic churches, that’d be Chaldean, Armenian Catholic etc churches. That representative is in practice as good as another ambassador to Azerbaijan. My paternal ancestors belonged to Armenian Catholic church, and as you understand something of historical value on that might be in Vatican or institutions\museums\whatever under its control.
While I do not disagree with you I think you missed my point. Like it or not, when he dies we will have another Pope, and I can bet money that the church is going to take the opportunity of the current trend to put a Pope that literally does the “Musk salute” and keep pushing their agenda… and like I said millions of people care a lot about what the Pope has to say. The last thing we need right now is a Pope that openly and aggressively supports far right governments in his speech.
I’d weigh this variant you fear same or less as a Pope who is saying all kinds of things for sufficient sums of money from all kinds of governments, maybe not limited to governments.
Which would be similar to Francis, but Francis is dangerous in being subtle.
