How do people keep track of far right bigots/activists? One can document them on wikipedia, but that's limited. I wonder about setting up a custom wikidata install where people can document what these people say and do...
In #Ireland we have an alphabet soup of catholic anti-LGBT & anti-abortion groups who are poppin up and movin around. Would be good to keep track of them
@ebel ideally you want to do this without alienating more moderate Catholics (there /are/ some, I guess even in IE!)
In Liechtenstein an anti LGBT Archbishop ended up with his *own congregation* blocking his entry into a church by lying in the ground in front of him when the Pope and other important ppl were there - he ultimately ended up being made Archbishop of some random tiny invented region rather than where he was supposed to be (and LI is tiny anyway)
@vfrmedia Yes, there are moderate Catholics in IE, but many are "cultural/ethnic Catholics". (e.g. 87% of IE claim to be catholic on the census, and ~62% voted for same sex marriage).
I'm not trying to be anti-catholic, but anti-anti-choice, it's just that many of them are staunch hardcore catholics, and pretending they aren't now.
@ebel this is indeed what has happened in UK, NL, AT, CH and DE.
OK these countries are perhaps more diverse religiously than IE but obvious bigots do get (and should get!) exposed in both religious and secular media.
Especially when they play the "that might be ecumenical matter" card (I guess you are familiar with Father Ted 😁)
@vfrmedia Case in point: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Women_Hurt Reforming a previous hardcore catholic lobby group to not be as openly catholic
