In one of the best interviews by a Pope in a generation, Pope Leo XIV trashes obscene wealth, cautions about the perils of democracy, recalibrates the proper role of 'synodality' in the church, and chats about sports.

Does he know the body count of other forms of government?

Yay. Let's be pervasively stupid all because "rich man bad."

He's not wrong. We see democracy is not great for countries of mixed tribal people. Like the middle east. They need to be ruled by a tyrant to keep everyone in check.

Not sure what that has to do with wealth though because the other two systems - monarchy and oligarchy - the rich rule. Not that there's anything inherently wrong with that. Any system fails when the politicians (and people) are morally corrupt.

That quote was a tiny snip at the very end, and was in Tue context of synodality

Great interview
