There would be no  "Fr. John Zuhlsdorf and Church Militant and Rorate Caeli (which) all traffic in this nasty brew" of right wing  political agitprop IF..
1.  The inappropriate implementation of Vatican II had not discredited as "deplorables" those who loved the Latin Mass and all things rosary, statue, candle, benediction, pageantry, etc.
2. There would be no cause for left/right wing animosity or division in the Catholic Church IF Pope Francis and his advisors would acknowledge and guide the existence of a Vatican II Rite/Church alongside and in union with Rome...in union with the other 22 other inter-independent non-Roman Catholic Rites most of which have existed in Catholic tradition for a thousand years.
3.If only RCC today could give up trying to force unity into the mold of uniformity of belief and practice.  Church unity viewed as a unity in diversity...Wouldn't that also be great example to the world today?  
What do you think?
