    Not really not the onion though. The Pope was apparently calling priests in Gaza almost every day. He believed parking the Popemobile in front of hospitals and children’s clinics would make for really bad optics if (who am I kidding, when) Israel bombs them.

              It’s not a comeback, it’s setting the record straight. Repeating false accusations doesn’t help anyone.

                    They changed the headline to “jokes about” because you can’t prove initial intent. It hardly changes anything.

                    Again, this isn’t the comeback you think it is. Stop dumping for genocidal maniacs.

          I’m not defending Israel or the folk who did that, just saying that some idiot in southern California did that in the last decade too. Started a big fire. I recall we mocked them in public discourse because we had little other way of venting our frustration that a public employee would burn down an appreciable portion of the state to announce what gender they think their child has.

      There are other articles here that don’t really read as satire ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

      Sheesh, imagine being that priest, doing daily status updates skipping about 23 levels of chain of command.

      This Pope had a personal charity underling who would walk the streets of Rome and hand out cash to people who needed it. The money came from selling autographed indulgences. So I’m not surprised in the least.

      My first thought is that seeing a popemobile outside a hospital would cause members of the idf some pause, but I’ve been watching this conflict for almost a century and some 18 year olds would consider it a high score.
