@Romanus Drevo Then I don't know what you'd call this
Sense of accomplishment?
Yeah, I think that works.
What'd ya do?
I stood up to my local village government today.
And got told, pretty much without abridhement or irony that the powers of the Police are independent of the towns they patrol and that the Justice system is a collection agency for the government.
@Romanus Drevo Local police have been giving out citations like water and the court system has been jammed and people are losing money more money to defend themselves than it would be to pay the tickets. It's affecting the way people live, my family included.
what country?
Chicago
oh
"village" in the ironic sense
Yep, Chicago is its own country! 😝
I like the way you put that XD
@Romanus Drevo It honestly might as well be.
The people's Democratic Commune of Chicago
DCC
@CPEGaebler Village as in yuppieville suburban. I could only dream that I live in a rural village
So were you able to change something?
@Romanus Drevo Other than my decision to remain in this city unfortunately not.
But I did find out that I live in a police state with a corrupt (((greedy))) [all the local judges are Jews] judiciary
and rather openly too
did you record the conversation? if they were that blatant you could try to get it viral
Through their website
I can ask for the video and I would completely love to do that!
I will post it when I find it
"Pride is a sin"
I think that that's a little bit different to feeling pleased with yourself. 🤔
On another note, I need to remember that it's only /rel/, or whatever it's called now, that's for the bants.
I talked with the priest today
And how did it go?
He was chill
Wanted to know about me
He getting me in contact with the nuns that live here
As they work with the uni i go to
Gave me a book explaining the church to me
Catechism?
A simple book explaining the faith simply
How do we battle corruption within the church?
Most of it will kill itself off, tbqh.
We're currently faced with a clergy that is almost completely the result of Vatican II boomerism, and everyone is seeing how much nonsense some of it is and are naturally gravitating towards tradition. The current clergy are only mortal and cannot be priests forever, so when their time is at hand, the next wave of Priests and cardinals will be massively reactionary, which will draw people into other vocations.
Its pushing people away from the faith
:(
It is. But as I see it, people who are leaving the faith over it are almost entirely missing the point.
