“...but this Pope is not truly representing the values of the people that look to him for guidance...”

The man is a FALSE pope because he is a heretic, non-Christian, and an enemy of the Church, for a true pope, such as Pope Pius XII and his predecessors, must be a Catholic and if a true pope, cannot teach error.
The faithful are permitted to discern this and act accordingly, regardless of how many others “follow” and support a false pope as pope.
From Saint Robert Bellarmine we read:
Therefore, the true opinion is the fifth, according to which the Pope who is manifestly a heretic ceases by himself to be Pope and head, in the same way as he ceases to be a Christian and a member of the body of the Church; and for this reason he can be judged and punished by the Church...
...This is the opinion of all the ancient Fathers, who teach that manifest heretics immediately lose all jurisdiction… NOT AFTER WARNINGS OR DECLARATION BECAUSE heretics already before being excommunicated are outside the Church and deprived of all jurisdiction. For they have already been condemned by their own sentence, as the Apostle teaches (Tit. 3:10-11), that is, they have been cut off from the body of the Church without excommunication, as St. Jerome affirms…
