The Traditional Catholic movement is no friend of Christ, from the reports made in the press over the past few months. This is not to confuse TC with RCC or Orthodox believers. Mexican TCs around Oaxaca have been burning down Protestant church buildings, taxing those who leave the TC and imprisoning their families.

There are many reports they are mixing animalism and pagan rites with Catholic tradition, resulting in a blasphemous mix.

You’re confusing traditional Catholics in America with religious issues in Mexico. Try not to put much trust in “reports made in the press.”

I seriously doubt that Traditional Catholics, particularly SSPX, are mixing animism and pagan rites into their worship! From what I have read of the events in Mexico, it had to do with land disputes and the several warring parties down there - Protestant Evangelicals, ordinary Catholics, left wing “base community” Catholics, Marxists, and followers of pagan cults, all mixing it up over a non-religious dispute.

Traditional Catholics are pretty harmless. They are, by the way, not all members of these schismatic groups. And even the more extreme elements of the SSPX may foam at the mouth a lot, metaphorically speaking, and be unpleasant to be around, but they normally just a nuisance, even to those of their own community.
