??? Biden is a "delusional" false Catholic who supports the "murder of innocent babies."  
That sounds a bit like denigration. Maybe it's different when you hear it?
Same for all the weak, approval-seeking priests and bishops Butker castigates 
in paragraph after paragraph for "misleading their flocks." And is he praising AP reporters? 

He says "We need to stop pretending that the 'Church of Nice' is a winning proposition." 
So he has no choice but to "preach hard truths" --people need to stay in their lanes.

Speaking of lanes, SOMEONE is deluding young women with "lies" about their true calling--marriage and children.
And young men as well. They need to reassert their masculinity to take control of the culture.

I can see why people who have constantly pushed against patriarchy to realize women's equality might take offense at some of this.
And why many on right would have no problem with a message of essential gender inequality.
