I don't think it was on purpose the Pope was just too frail to be in the same room as that much cringe. Frankly it was irresponsible of them to allow Vance anywhere near him.

As a vampire, he has to drink the blood of a pontif to remain a daywalker.
He should now sparkle in the sun for another...6-8 weeks before needing to feed again.
The pope wouldn't let him ogle the holy see.
Vance took off his human mask and showed the pope what a demon looks like.
What's a Nazi's favorite color smoke?
White smoke.
(For all y'all non Catholics, the vatican has white smoke to signal when they elect a new pope...and ya know...JD Vance is a nazi.)
Same as Liz Truss killing the queen. Sometimes, when you're old and in poor health, you just experience something that makes you think "fuck it, I don't need to put up with this shit anymore."
Lol .... this is it
When you're at the end of your life and hanging on the edge looking for a glimmer of hope .... then you get visited by an absolute tool that is only motivated by greed and power and represents a general apathy for any kind of humanity ...
you just think to yourself, "yeah, nah, this isn't worth it any more"
He spoke Spanish
Just want to point out this is what furniture in the Vatican looked like before Pope Francis
And then after Pope Francis
Still needed a way to finance a billion dollar corporation with tens of thousands of prime real estate all over the world managed by a legion of professional clergy all managed by a central office that is it's own country at the center of one of the most expensive cities in the world ..... all while spreading the message of piety, peace and being humble.
As much as everyone likes to glorify catholic leaders, they're still a mafia force that is based on money and wealth and Christian faith last
For sure, but as long as the mafia exists (which looks like it's going to be for a good long while still) I want it to have the leader who will do the most good possible, even if it's still a net negative. There are those out there who would use the resources to do a lot of harm.
Weirdest excuse ever.
They are a mafia but at least they’re not raping kids, right?
I hope they sold the old chair and used the money for the poor, but they probably just tucked it in the attic
Yeah, as far as popes go he was pretty chill
Talking to sex pest Jimmy Dilbert Vance is so exhausting it takes 10 years off your life, the Pope didn't have 10 years left.
Death by cringe
The Pope refused to join his Signal group.
He joined the wrong signal group. Vance only realized when the pope asked "what's up with all the couch pics?"
killed him to further the prophecy that this is the end times.
Given the conservative drift of major institutions over the past year or so whoever they pick for the new Pope is probably less likely to excommunicate him
We’ll see how it goes but Francis chose a supermajority of the current Cardinals. With the exception of Cardinal Pizzaballa, I don’t know any of their names, much less their views.
The pope asked the Trump administration to be kind to immigrants and the poor. Can't have talk like that from the church.
Lol church money flowing to the poor and needy? How would the poor get into heaven without a life of suffering? (Mother Theresa's view on charity, not mine).
Careful now, Martin Luther!
Doesn't the Pope know that empathy is a sin?
The devil is tempting me to be kind and have compassion for others.
Don't tempt me, bro.
Everyone here seems to be in on something that I've missed.
Edit: I read a reuters article, I see he met with JD yesterday.
Because he didn't say "thank you" clearly
Same reason Liz Truss killed the Queen
Pope met the antichrist and said I'm outta here.
The pope realized that no just or loving god would let that couch fucker anywhere near any position of power, so he offed himself out of depression.
Plausible explanation.
Because he's evil. And the pope publicly gave him a lecture. Made him look smaller than he already did.
Pope didn't say Thank you.
Pope didn't wear a suit.
White Pope robes? Don't you know how to wear respectful clothing?
maybe it lacks some stuff....like a pointy hood thingy
