I don't know if the younger generations of a culture even recognize it for what it is, but they're young and easily indoctinated. It's beyond time for these programs to be updated and discard the old ways of old Europe that never did anyone any good.

But American suburbs aren’t the wasteland. And “the Church does not tolerate antisemitism” isn’t a statement of fact — it’s an ideal. The reality is that right now bishops and priests across the globe, including in Pope Leo’s hometown of Chicago, are carrying out an annual tradition of teaching children to hate Jews and Roma. Will the church continue to tolerate it?

and they wonder why church attendance is down.
