text: "Conservative Catholics?"  If we are going to confront the "fake news and the election of Donald Trump," let's start with some that truth telling:  'Conservative Catholics' is code for angry and afraid white folks.
  
  Among the ways that the media has got it wrong is it's complicity in making many white people more comfortable in expressing and acting out their prejudices and fears.  Sitting next to us in the pews are fellow sheeple who harbor the dark motivations of racism, misogyny and fascism.
  
  Acknowledging the evil among us is the first step to overcoming it.
