The Dialog Of The Deaf

Of Useful Idiots, Trolls, Shills, and Hanging Chads

This Wolf recently listened to three videos that are a perfect illustration of the next phase of the metastasis of "The Crisis in the Church" and that of the World at large.  The first was by Anthony Stine concerning an attack on Fr Ripperberger.  The second was an "interview" Taylor Marshall had with Archbishop Vigano.  The third was a discussion between Louie Verrecchio and the Host of Vendee Radio.  Sadly, in only one of the videos did the topic of Our Lady of Fatima arise, and then only tangentially.  

Firstly, Anthony Stine details a JooToob channel that is impersonating Fr Ripperberger, putting words in his mouth and having him speak opinions not his, even going so far as to have him giving messages from various "apparitions" he has received.  Fr Ripperberger's "Media Lawyer" (Which this Wolf assumes does not come cheap- this is quite the revelation in itself.  Maybe from now on it should be FrRipperberger, Inc?)  is pressuring JooToob to "cancel" the channel, or at least take down the videos which are committing fraud.  And Anthony Stine is beside himself.  This, apparently, and not the predations of Fr Arnaud Rostand, is a sin which cries to Heaven for vengeance.  So far as this Wolf is concerned, you live by JooToob, you die by JooToob.  Apart from background noise, this Wolf does not engage with JooToob anymore.  He does not leave comments or participate in chats- most of the time he is shadowbanned anyway.  Like Twitter and Facebook, JooToob has become a Cosmic Dumpster Fire.  It is one of the prize gems in the Crown Jewel of Operation Mockingbird- the Internet in general.  When you enter cyberspace anymore, you are entering the domain of the "Intelligence Community".  Beware!  (This Wolf does believe that, eventually, Substack will become a Dumpster Fire as well.  His days here are definitely numbered!)

The "interview" Taylor Marshall had with Chuckie Vigano was in reality a series of questions he submitted and received answers to.  This Wolf agrees with a lot of the Archbishop's opinions.  The "Third Secret" released by the Vatican in the year 2000 was entirely Fake and Ghey.  And yes, Catholics should pay no attention if Pope Frantic were to ban the Traditional Mass.  But other than those two clear answers, much was either a rehash of what was already revealed, or very muddled thinking.  Notably missing from any of the questions was a clarification of whether the archbishop had been "conditionally re-consecrated" by Bishop Richard Williamson, rumors of which were circulating earlier this year.  In summation, this whole affair is simply more sensationalism and grist for conversations at the Holy Coffee and Donuts Conference after Mass.

The conversation at Vendee Radio got closest to the target.  First off, this Wolf thinks Louie Verrecchio is hopelessly obsessed with Sedevacantism.  While this Wolf does indeed currently think the Chair of Peter is vacant, he is not a "Classic Sedevacantist".  If this Wolf were to accept the foundational "doctrines" of the Classic Sedevacantist School, he might have to conclude that the seat has been empty since being vacated by Pope Celestine V, as, upon close inspection, all subsequent popes have been shown to be just so many nincompoops, frauds, murderers, and Satanic Pederasts.  In the course of the conversation, some interesting points of contention between the two were raised.  Louie asserts that the "recognize and resist" crowd is being trained to be Protestant, judging the Pope by the standard of Faith.  (Not that Protestants judge anybody by a standard of faith.  They have no standard of faith.  All they have is the Bible, and not Tradition.)  The question is raised: Why do not all the Sedevacantists just gather in conclave and elect their own pope?  Hah!  If ten Traditional Catholics would make a circular firing squad, one can only imagine what ten Sedevacantist would do if sequestered in a room together.  If Sedevacantists had Atomic Weapons, Nuclear Winter would have us in an Ice Age by now.

This Wolf, of course, sees all this dissention and factionalism among Traditional Catholics as having been intended from the beginning.  The early pioneers: Fr Gommar DePauw, Rama P Coomaraswamy, and Fr James Wathan were formidable apologists who were quite aware of the nuances and consequences of their ideas.  But then came the Bearded One, Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre, and everything was polemics, clericalism, and Aping the Pontificate of Pius XII.  As a result, Traditional Catholicism splintered into various groups that ossified their positions.  And none of them does this Wolf find satisfactory at this point.  The FSSP and similar groups prefer to avoid the pertinent questions.  The SSPX likewise.  The SSPV and CMRI do not have a cohesive outlook, and anathematize their peers.  Many of the "Independents" are hypocrites, having recourse to questionable practices in cases of necessity.

But this Wolf has learned to identify the True Church.  It is under the Mantle of Our Lady of Fatima.  Seeing her message as all important, they are devoted to praying the Rosary and cultivating knowledge of Her Immaculate Heart in the course of Salvation History.  They are also vitally aware of Prophecy and Eschatology.  They do not shy away from the hard facts, such as the heretical nature of Vatican II, the invalidity of the New Mass and Sacraments, and the consequences for Humanity at large.

Soon, Clown World and Clown Church are going to be swept away, and if you are not devoted to Our Lady of Fatima, you will find yourself in a Wasteland, without priest nor bishop nor pope.  You will be without either the Morning Star or a Lamp at Your Feet.  Call upon Our Lady while she is still near.  Start today to nurture a tender devotion to her.  It will be the only thing that nurtures and sustains you as rain band after rain band of the Category Seven Geopolitical Storm comes ashore.  The winds are rapidly rising now, and the shills, trolls, useful idiots, and chatbots have no answers, no plan, and no future.  Soon, they will be swept away like pieces of dung in a tsunami.

At this point, only Direct Divine Intervention is going to save the Institutional Church.  The Cardinals have all proven themselves to be opportunists or cowards.  The Bishops are busy infighting.  The Priests have turned their Chapels into financial rackets.  The same has happened to Religious Organizations.  And nobody wants to truly leave the New Sodom, and shake its dust from their feet once and for all.  They are all going to pay a price.  Better to fast and do penance voluntarily now, then be forced to do so later.

Our Lady of Fatima, pray for us.  You are our only hope.
