I didn't think he would really do it.

That pure malice that emanates from JankyDick is not recommended for anyone over the age of 80.

[–] Formfiller@lemmy.world 15 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Vance is pure evil. Pure evil needs to feed to sustain. In the face of pure evil the pope lost all hope and then Vance fed upon his soul.

Because Biden is catholic

[–] lack@lemmy.world 14 points 1 month ago

One thing I've learned is never try to beat a couch fucker at his own game

[–] infinitevalence@discuss.online 13 points 1 month ago

He thought it was the seat of Catholic power and was driven to a frenzy.

[–] Sprawl@lemmy.world 13 points 1 month ago (1 children)

The Pope cried out “take me JC!”

Unfortunately his right hand man is a bit hard of hearing, and let JD into the room…

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.

[–] Lemminary@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

Sparkling vice president was not on my political bingo card for this administration.

[–] Zagorath@aussie.zone 13 points 1 month ago

Because Elon wanted it. Vance doesn't have an ounce of initiative in his body. He doesn't need a reason other than his boss asked him.

[–] Hikuro93@lemmy.world 13 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Sure didn't see this one coming, ironically. Before the pope had passed away I commented this on another post.

Bet the poor Pope couldn't even attend because in addition to his health issues he must have felt the evil pressure oozing from Vance.

Welp, poor Francis. He was a good one, and difficult to replace especially in these uncertain times.

The silver lining is that he really made his last big act in life to admonish Vance, and by extension the Trump admin, about their wrongdoing. He has my gratitude for that.

[–] Pronell@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I don't know the why but the first thing I said when I found out was "Polonium".

Because he's evil. And the pope publicly gave him a lecture. Made him look smaller than he already did.

[–] theywilleatthestars@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago (2 children)

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

JD got over excited by how the pontiff choose to couch his words.

[–] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago

killed him to further the prophecy that this is the end times.

[–] obvs@lemmy.world 10 points 1 month ago

JD Vance was the thing that made the Pope finally give up on humanity.

[–] Akasazh@feddit.nl 10 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Because the pope deadnamed him.

James Donald Bowman is a massive cuck and deserves to be reminded off his biological father for as long as people in the USA can't choose which gender they prefer.

[–] P00ptart@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago (5 children)

I wonder if his ID matches his summoning certificate. 🤔

If you're in the vatican, what else is there to do?

[–] painfulasterisk1@lemmy.ml 9 points 1 month ago

He spoke Spanish

[–] Flemmy@lemm.ee 9 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

The flu of America*

Tap for spoiler*Formerly known as influenza or Spanish Flu.

[–] Jimmycakes@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

He killed the pope then a couple days later started up a Muslim terror attack on Hindus so all the worlds major religions are at war

Couldn't hear the safe word through the ball gag.

[–] 0x01@lemmy.ml 8 points 1 month ago

Because he didn't say "thank you" clearly

[–] kometes@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

Fancy papal couches that were unfuckable.

[–] Auli@lemmy.ca 8 points 1 month ago

I mean I don't think I know Vance killed him. See Trump can make stuff up why can't we.

[–] conditional_soup@lemm.ee 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I asked ChatGPT to explain why JD Vance would kill the pope and it cited articles at me to tell me that JD Vance did not, in fact, kill the pope. I even tried to get it to doubt itself and it doubled down. If I have to live in slop world, I should at least be able to have fun with it :(

Homie has a problem with decency and people following the word of Jesus, despite publicly saying he is a Christian.

So a conclave power struggle is set off behind the scenes to try to install Cardinal Burke so that they have one less institution to get in the way

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.

[–] BigMacHole@lemm.ee 7 points 1 month ago

I THOUGHT this was FAKE NEWS but I'm seeing it All Over Facebook so it MUST be True that JD Vance KILLED the Pope!

-Republicans who Do Their Own Research and STILL Love Trump!

[–] asg101@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 1 month ago

The pope told JD that no one in the tRump regime, or any other self-proclaimed christian in the USA was anything near being a christian. Per Matthew 25:40-45

[–] SPRUNT@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago

Being anywhere in Trump's orbit speeds up your trajectory towards death like Matt Damon in Saving Private Ryan. Donald Trump is, essentially, a biological version of "The Machine" from The Princess Bride pushed to 50.

Since the pope was only secondarily contaminated, the process was slower, but he was already so close to death as it is.

[–] Trainguyrom@reddthat.com 6 points 1 month ago

Truth is, he wasn't trying to. Vance wanted to show off his zombie Jesus costume, but it turned out to be a killer costume!

(I just wanted to throw something in that isn't the same jokes everyone else is making)

[–] RampantParanoia2365@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

Well the Pope ghosted JD, so JD obviously ghosted the Pope.

[–] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

Probably sitting on a couch he found really attractive and got jealous.
