This is a pretty common sentiment in Evangelical circles. That Catholics are pagan cultists who worship Mary. Like how Pete Hegseth’s pastor wants to ban Catholic processions on idolatry grounds.

Hegseth Pastor Would Ban Public Displays of Catholic Devotion
Pete Hegseth's pastor, Doug Wilson, thinks public display of the Catholic faith must be banned as either “idolatry” or “Mariolatory.”

It’s the panopticon nature of it that’s the problem. The closest I’ve come to cutting my parents off was when my mom called to yell at me about a Facebook event my wife had marked as interested in. We worked through it and things are mostly fine now. We’re not connected on social media anymore.

Short answer: 16 Long answer: I think they’re ready when they get interested in Camus and European foreign films.

It’s really difficult for people not working in natural resources to wrap their heads around the utter irrationality of western water policy. Feel how you want about data centers, but forcing water right holders to dump their water on fallow desert so they can keep their right is worse.

Yeah. There’s always tension between the urges to maximize pleasure and reduce pain. But if you read the accounts of the Christian martyrs, I think many of them derived a sort of pleasure from it. E.g. St. Lawrence saying “Turn me over I’m done in this side”.

I’ve thought for a while that there ought to be a synthesis between Epicureanism and Christianity (like Augustine and Aquinas did with Plato and Aristotle respectively). Why did Christ die on the cross? To relieve our suffering.

Everybody keeps trying to give Slowpoke bribes and he thinks they’re just being nice and giving him stuff; not understanding that he needs to lean on the Secretary General’s office if he wants to keep the Tiffany bracelet.

If you read about Netflix’s workplace culture, they are really not optimizing for a healthy work life balance.
Text from Wikipedia article on Criticism of Netflix:
Workplace culture
Netflix grants all employees extremely broad discretion with respect to business decisions, expenses, and vacation-but in return expects consistently high
performance, as enforced by what is known as the "keeper test." [160|[161]
All supervisors are expected to constantly ask themselves if they would fight to keep an employee. If the answer is no, then it is time to let that employee go. 162! A slide from an internal presentation on Netflix's
corporate culture summed up the test as: "Adequate performance gets a generous severance package."[161]
Such packages reportedly range from four months' salary in the United States to as much as six months in the Netherlands. 1621

It's very easy to wear a suit and tie in any major city, even if the aesthetic has mostly disappeared from daily life, because there are people outside wearing pink tutus with Army boots. As usual, your liberation is connected to other people's liberation.
Bobby Mars on Twitter writes: "If you wear a collared shirt and nice shoes out to the bar in the rust belt, multiple people will ask you if you just came from a wedding. Aesthetic standards for men’s attire are horrendously low"

9/11 contained multitudes. There absolutely was a sense of unity and national mourning. I saw some real pushback on racism on racism and Islamophobia from Republicans. But boy was there also a whole lot of racism and paranoid psychosis.

The kind of person you’re talking about is also equally unfamiliar with the breadth of American Catholicism. “Low Catholicism” which is much less interested in Latin, theology, and the smells and bells. Plenty of Catholics bristle at a Jesuit liberal arts education almost as much as evangelicals do.
