“If you don’t do this, you will be punished: You’ll lose your job and many things; or you’ll be set aside,” he continued. “This is the persecution of the world.”

The Pope said “the prince of this world,” the devil, heads this “polite persecution.”

He’s spot on.
“Normal folks” hate nothing more than a real Christian.

Pope Francis is referring to leftist persecution of Christian values. They want to strike down the old order. This includes Christianity. They do this in the name of progress. This is not true progress though. Russia is making true progress these days. The leftist Soviet Union fell and was replaced by the conservative Russian Federation. Russia is returning to Christian values. America is moving towards the left. It is not too late to turn it around though.

“Polite persecution.” Is that kind of like micro-aggression?

“Polite persecution.” Is that kind of like micro-aggression?

The kind of persecution that the pope is talking about is real enough. It includes nuns being forced to pay for birth control, tax payers being forced to pay for abortions, Hollywood producers and restaurateurs being targeted for supporting traditional forms of marriage.
It includes states such as Georgia being targeted by big business for laws that stress that priests ought not to be forced to perform marriages that they don’t agree with. It includes just regular people being labeled as self-righteous bigots for just believing in the values and norms that have been a part of Christianity for all their lives.

Micro-aggression is just a psycho-babble term that is currently in vogue to ward off any challenges to the comfort of living in the zone of leftist culture.
