What is your basis for calling Guterres an atheistic communist? According to his Wikipedia biography, he is a practicing Catholic. When there was a referendum on abortion in Portugal, he supported the pro-life side (which won). Wikipedia also quotes him saying that he does not like homosexuality.

My basis is his tenure in Portugal’s Socialist Party, serving as its general secretary for ten years. He was also part of their committee that negotiated his country joining the EUSSR.

Joe Biden also calls himself a “practicing Catholic”, remember.

PS. Where and when did the anti-abortion side in Portugal “win”? The 1996 referendum? Abortion has been legal there since 2007, and the referendum thereof was called by the then-president of that country’s Socialist Party. (Very quick about-face in a scant eleven years, yes?)
