As a Catholic, I feel compelled to point out a lot of Catholics believe the Reporter to be incredibly liberal.
I’d argue it’s just honest and actually asks the church to live out its actual standards, though. Either way, it’s not really going to be confused with conservative.

So, about Ceaucescu: I have a strange question. I had a student who years ago who brought him up and that he was kind of popular now in Romania.
Has there been any research on why and how people like that get popular after their reign ends?

Am I wrong in thinking this is worse than anything from 03-04? Is it recency bias?
I remember the glowing Rumsfeld profiles, but this seems worse. I don’t remember anyone saluting him.
