In the interests of not revisiting old posts, this thought: stories like this call to mind the weakness of reporters to print what they hear, versus what they research.
It's not quite "print the legend", but you can see the trajectory.

There's something very Jesuit about exiling the Provincial Superior to Nice

Headline writers at the Moonie Times really at the top of their game these days

Let's just say we disagree on this.

Let's just say we disagree on this. I probably should've picked a less incendiary tweet to cite than some random Name+Numbers who thinks the University could just drop its endowment down to $2M. In fact, I will go back and edit that out and put in tweets from the article author... especially since you apparently sought said rando out and got into an argument with them on the Bird App. I stand by what I said in response, though: I view any and all American professions of innocence as baseless and beside the point.

No argument, just a lot of crosstalk out there. Twitter is no place for an extended conversation and said respondent wasn't likely to argue the minutiae of the Maryland Corporation of Roman Catholic Clergymen or In Supremo Apostolatus if all he's read is what's in the Times, which has beat this drum for a while.

Citations to obscure elements of Catholic bureaucracy or doctrine may be a viable defense in whatever hypothetical version of Nuremberg Slavery Trials you've constructed in your head, but in the real world, that's not going to count for much in most people's eyes - even people highly informed on the facts! Certainly not much more than does the fact that Hans Fritzsche, Franz von Papen, and Hjalmar Schacht were acquitted at Nuremberg, while others like Paul Hausser and Felix Steiner never faced charges (and the latter ended up working for the U.S.!)
