Its simple. The Catholic Church is divided between the Pro-life conservatives and the social justice liberals. Both claim to be true Catholics. Jesuits tend to be in the social justice camp. The new Pope is a Jesuit. Those Cardinals and Bishops that tend to be more conservative and traditionalist are being demoted.
Some Catholics, especially on FR, continue to claim its all just misinterpretation or media spin.
That about sums it up.

(Low taxes and less spending in Sodom and Gomorrah is not my idea of a conservative victory)

A growing number of Catholics, especially on FR, have begun claiming that Burke's move is a clear sign that the Catholic Church is entering an era of apostasy and that Francis may be an "anti-pope".
That about sums it up.
And you did a great job of it, too.
