What do TradCats think of the "Communion and Liberation" movement?

[Open Heart]

Are any of you familiar with the Communion and Liberation movement (CL)? I'm just wondering what Traditionalists think of it?

Their own website:
A Movement in the Church - What is CL

From Crux:
'If you don't think Francis is the cure, you don't grasp the disease,' CL head says
CL head sketches a Christianity beyond the culture wars

I've never heard of the "Communion and Liberation" movement. But that it contains the word "liberation" strikes me as being a red flag since that word is typically used in the names of communist movements. Liberation theology was invented by the Soviet Union's KGB.

"The KGB had a penchant for 'liberation' movements. The Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO), the National Liberation Army of Columbia (FARC), and the National Liberation Army of Bolivia were just a few of the 'liberation' movements born at the KGB." Pacepa & Rychlak, Disinformation, pp. 106-107

Someone else in this forum, who is traditional, used the expression, and I thought it was cute. It reminds me of the song, "Everybody wants to be a cat, because being a cat is where it's at!"

I've looked over their website at least a once over, and although they don't really explain what they mean by liberation, they certainly don't seem to be communist AT ALL.

Isn't Crux kind of traditional? Cause Crux seems to treat them very well.

Crux sometimes flirts with unorthodox positions. And I read a little bit of the article (it's a long article), and it seems to promote a cult of personality of Pope Francis, which I took as another red flag.

Except that CL has existed for decades before Pope Francis. So it is not a personality cult.

I never heard of the "Communion and Liberation movement " until yesterday.

But in the Crux article about them, they seem to promote a cult of personality.

Never heard of it before, I will read the article when I have some time
