Objections to the statue of Pope Leo are pure Protestantism. It is a widespread traditional practice to have a framed picture of the living pope in parishes. Is that idolatry?
Crazy how American "trads" are in many ways the most protestant Catholics there are.
I don’t think Napoleon was a good guy but the way the British defeated him was sort of fundamentally ignoble. Just endlessly spamming the unpatched island nation/infinite money exploits.

Another instance of a lower class man projecting lower class behavior on wealthy people. You do not create generational wealth with unstable families. There is a reason why this happened with a rags to riches story.
Slovyansk is one of the few cities in Ukraine’s eastern region of Donetsk that hasn’t been taken by Russia.
