Thank you, Emily,
There's really nothing, IMHO, brave about speaking our minds, as long as it coincides with the truth as well as one can perceive it, and short of engaging one's mouth prior to effecting such an engagement with the mind.
I would be indifferent to any personal (ad hominem) vitriol or hatred thrown my way, placing no value on the thrower's obviously-in-error opinion.
It would be very difficult for anyone who can truthfully self-identify as a rightwing, Christian, Conservative to be anyone's sheeple, as we are traditionally independently free-thinking individuals.
Those who support Trump do so because he stands for and has politically fought for those long ingrained basic principles we possessed before he ever rose to represent them.
As for TDS being a cult, I'm not sure how that works...
The foundation of a cult (from Latin for worship) is traditionally, historically, seen as forming around a person, an individual with a powerful, often magnetic personality, and is then shaped and recognizable in it's followers-members by their adherence to that leader's distinctly unique teachings.
In this case, it would appear that the constants are being reversed so that the cult-members, per se, are formed around that individual they would willfully consign to hell, rather than worship, were it within their power to do so - which it isn't!
Interesting perspective, though.
Back to the concept of "being brave," - Emily, I do not believe that the poster(s) exist on this forum or any other that could intimidate either of us.

He is far closer to God than either you or trump is.
I thought you are anti-religious.
Yet, as in most things you are IGNORANT of, you pose as an expert.

He is the VICAR OF CHRIST and a Jesuit.
You just don’t like his politics because you are MAGA.
I WAS NOT a fan of Benedict, but he was still the Pope of over 1.2 billion people.
And I honored him as the descendant of Peter and my spiritual leader.
Why won’t you accept the fact you are a man?

That is not the same thing.
A priest may bless a murderer before his execution, but not condone the murder.

Tell us how Jesus Christ would bless something He condemns!!!

Many devout Catholics are turning away from this pope.
Catholic doctrine from my point of view is greatly flawed but when the mainstream Catholic Church starts to turn from their current pope then he must be really really bad.

According to Christs parables and precepts He reiterated multiple times to love the sinner but hate the sin - the Pope is an elected individual selected by man to be the head of a large group of believers- reverence is shown for the position not the temporary occupant of the position - he has no more power than you or I and is a sinner - his words have no more value to God than yours or mine - each of us including the Pope will be judged by Christ according to The Scriptures

I’m not maga my dear and knowing the pope is simply a man who has gone against God’s word has nothing to do with politics

=============
I don't mean to interrupt you Rose. But thank you for your careful analysis. I must say that some Popes have sinned as who we have now. He brought shame to the Church of God, and hundreds of Cardinals and Bishops don't want him.
I don't want to pinpoint any Christian denomination because they all have done good and some failed. But we must use our own judgement how to follow the right direction. " The water is flowing in the right side of the Temple of God. " Ezekiel 47:1-6
All of us have sinned, we are all human. But with confession and repentance, they are healed!
