To be largely “willfully ignorant” of an event in the news is not something for which some needs to be excused.
Regarding Pope Francis, I’ve decided to intentionally not to pay too close attention to his actions and words for now. He’s new in his position. I might actually wait a whole month or something before I get ready to put him under a microscope and jump down his throat for misdeeds, real or imagined.

John Paul I only got 33 days.
Which is wise and prudent, and something I too had planned on doing until this current issue arose two days ago.
I'm trying to work through it myself, and a lot of folks I know personally are really frustrated by this and having a hard time sorting it out. If even Fr. Z is flustered by these developments, I don't feel so bad for being flustered.
As I said earlier, I attend the Novus Ordo mass daily. I attend the TLM almost every Sunday. Honestly, I attend the latter on Sundays not so much because I love the TLM, but because I hate liturgical abuse, and there are none at the TLM.
To see our Pope ignore the rubrics is to my sensibilities very troubling.
