>>“All generations will call me blessed.”<<

And she was truly blessed. But...

Luke 11:27 While Jesus was saying these things, one of the women in the crowd raised her voice and said to Him, "Blessed is the womb that bore You and the breasts at which You nursed." 28 But He said, "On the contrary, blessed are those who hear the word of God and observe it."

So?

What in Jesus’ words denigrates Mary? Does he DENY that Mary bore him? Does he DENY that Mary heard the word of God and observed it?

YOU haven’t been calling Mary “blessed.” You have been calling her unimportant.
