Oh I agree. It’s just that that particular quote is often used in a certain way against him and I find other quotes much more condemning.

Reference: Calumny.

This is the point I've been trying to get at all the time. He does enough in the real world that is disturbing that we don't need to make stuff up or take stuff out of context to know we have a "bad pope" here.

For example, "inequality is the root of all social evil."

A real quote. Taken from a document, not from off-the-cuff speaking. Though a short extract, there isn't anything that would change it if it is placed in its surrounding context.

And something that is in contradiction to Sacred Scripture, Tradition, and ALL the Magisterium of his predecessors.

Plenty of other examples out there...
