A few updates have come out, and it looks like Pope Leo snubbed the trans women and no one got to actually talk to him. One woman got to hand him a letter and that's it. He also snubbed JD Vance in May too, suggesting but not confirming a rhetorical pattern.

Whether the seating was deliberate or not, the concern lies in how he couldn't be bothered to share one word with any of them. Pope Leo has established himself earlier this year anti gay and trans, and that doesn't seem to have changed yesterday. A step back compared to Francis, who was at least willing to communicate. Add it to the giant pile of setbacks that occurred in 2025.

Holy shit. This isn't just huge, this is colossal for the church. And good too.

I honestly expected the current pope to be a bit on the reactionary trend, but this is great.

This is how you expand your worldview and better humanize everyone and realize we're all on the same page.

Except fascists, fuck them.
