    We don’t platform vile organization just because they say one good thing.

    Did you ask yourself how you would react if Hitler said it and a puff piece found itself in your feed? The analogy is there for a reason. Yes, it’s an exaggeration but it’s meant to bring things to light so to speak.

    It isn’t one isolated statement, you can’t isolate the statement from the church.

    Like bro, you think he used a quote from Gandalf because he likes lord of the rings? It’s a media campaign. The church is trying to bring up their numbers and they are coasting off AI because it’s easier to change their actual policies. The new pope goes viral every month because that’s easier than to actually stop his goons from raping kids and convince the parish that the gays aren’t actually evil.

      I don’t platform shit, my point is « let’s enjoy this relatively unique alignement of opinion and reach of the statement ».

      You are filling all the gaps yourself here, creating a unique narrative not unlike that of Tolkien given how enormous and wild it is.
