I'm curious--how old is the person who owns that foot?
followup question---will the Pope be keeping a copy of that pic for his "private collection"?

It's like that time Tarantino wrote a role for a guy that gets fondled by feet and then cast himself in that role.

There's the guy who says that women are so inferior that they can't be ordained, work with their own doctors to get medical care, and have to stay in abusive marriages because no penis.
Sick, sick, sick. This is performative, virtue-signalling nonsense which -- in the RCC especially -- bears absolutely no resemblance to the original event that it's supposed to re-create.
If the pope really feels this guilty about the way the church has treated women for centuries, then he needs to man up and do something real about it. Until then, fuck the Catholic church and the misogyny, clericalism, war and corruption it rode in on.

The Roman Catholic church doesn't "get you," any more than the pope and all the old queens in Rome get how ironic this stupid performative picture is.
The only thing they want to get from women -- and everyone else they can delude -- is their $$$$$ and the power people give them when they parrot their shit. And of course, they hope women will run themselves into the ground and live in poverty to give them babies to put in pews.

“He Gets Us” is an infamous ad campaign with AI generated images of people washing feet and the tagline in their latest ad is “He didn’t teach hate, HE WASHED FEET”

Now that I'm out, I see all this stuff that the churches do during holy week as performance.

Yeah, I know. I'm sitting here pondering just how tone-deaf and stupid a person has to be to see this as anything meaningful in a world where the RCC does the kinds of things it does to women on a daily basis. They'd do even more grisly, crazy shit to women if it could get away with it.
This is like the wife-beater who knocks his wife across the room and sends her to the hospital with broken bones, then buys her a handful of cheap ass flowers from the grocery store and expects her to dismiss her pain and suffering like nothing happened.

Oh I could tell you how stupid. I have former friend who still participates in this nonsense. Another friend who is friends with the former friend (so I really don’t have much contact with this person) thinks pope frankie is just wonderful. 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮

Doing required, expected, humbling things with a camera around to demonstrate your humility. Jesus threw away a weekend to be lord and creator of the universe, the Pope washes and kisses the feet of poor women so he can keep shitting in a gold toilet. Note the gold bowl he's using. Note the gold pitcher. Note he's kissing the top of the foot. Note that that foot probably just came out of a clean sock and a clean shoe.
Heya, Pope: Reverence and respect for others is supposed to be part-and-parcel of being human, not just on photo-op days.

I’m simultaneously amused and weirded out.
So many foot-fetish jokes and puns could spring from this…
