When a governing body has more Catholics in it than the actual percentage of Catholics in the population they control, you are, in fact, morally, ethically, and procedurally forbidden to introduce more Catholics

Anyway I read a very angry hot take against Orwell from some Irish guy a while ago where he says that he thinks Orwell made O'Brien in 1984 Irish on purpose, and that Orwell's angry screeds against Catholicism are clearly just because he hates Irish people It was pretty annoying

"I have found that when an Englishman wants to attack the Irish people without doing so directly, he always begins by attacking our church" ...But it's NOT EVEN YOUR CHURCH IT'S RUN BY A BUNCH OF ITALIANS

Yeah - it's the dumb thing where Catholic, as an identity, mostly is as vague as a hometown. It's just an arbitrary background a lot of people have, and they don't care about the doctrine.

But like some of the aesthetics, or a few specific things, whatever. That's the vast majority of American Catholics. Then we get to the actual CHURCH, which as far as I can tell, most Catholics either dislike or just ignore.
