Papal front runners. If the Black guy becomes the next pope, white Republicans will scream DEI till their buttholes explode

So, now that they selected a 69 year old white guy from Chicago will the left prolapse because it was a white guy or was the premise of this thread as stupid as we all said it was?
and yet it became an all time great thread,

perfectly illustrating the destructivenss of the "topic drift" police.

First, there's no such thing as races.

Second, besides you claiming Pope Leo is white and others claiming he's black, it appears not everyone understands there's no such thing as races, only cultures.

The Catholic Church has a new leader, with the Augustinian Cardinal Robert Prevost elected as Pope Leo XIV, his chosen name as bishop of Rome. He is the first North American pope and, according to a prominent genealogist, a pope with African-Creole ancestry....

...Leo XIV is a member of a religious order named for the famous African St. Augustine of Hippo.

Louisiana Creole expert Jari Honora has traced Prevost's ancestry to the Black community of New Orleans. His maternal ancestors lived in the Crescent City before migrating to Chicago in the early 20th century, Honora said.

Leo XIV is not known to have publicly commented having African ancestry, which is part of a mixed heritage that also includes French, Italian and Spanish roots. According to the U.S. Census, Prevost's mother, the late Mildred Martinez, was the mixed-race daughter of Black property owners, the Haitian-born Joseph Martinez and New Orleans native Louise Baquié, a Creole.

As such, Leo XIV could be considered the first Black pope in the history of the Catholic Church, though it is unclear how he identifies racially.
 
Some are screaming now even though he isn't black. Take Laura Loomer (please): "Woke Marxist Pope" and “He is anti-Trump, anti-MAGA, pro-open Borders, and a total Marxist like Pope Francis.”
She isn't "screaming"... Though I'd point out to her that he has chosen to vote more often in republican primaries than in democrat primaries. I just do not care who the Vatican chooses to run it's postage stamp sized country.
