I’ll make it easy for you. The link I am providing is to an encyclical from Pope Pius IX, from December 8, 1864. Among other things, it speaks on the evils of socialism and communism, by name. It also addresses a proper Catholic view of religious freedom. It’s an infallible teaching of the Church. That means that, to be a Catholic, one MUST accept it, and follow it. Some may have forgotten it, given the amount of time that has passed. But, for your personal edification, it is here. You tell me, AFTER READING it, where does it condone socialism? Then, you’ll have some credibility. Until then, it’s one huckster entertaining himself.

Oh, and, just in case you’d like further enlightenment, here’s Rerum Novarum, Pope Leo XIII’s text on labor and capitalism.
