CMTV continuous what can only be described as a self-righteous crusade against anyone who does automatically agree with them. They have now twitter attacked Fr. Raymond Blake for not agreeing with them and criticizing them methods. CMTV seems to have become quite rabid in its defence of its self-appointed mission. I'm just not certain what that mission is anymore.
This is very similar to what seems to be happening with John Salza. One example is his criticism of decisions of the Church that Catholics can attend the masses of the SSPX.
I know that Mr. Voris et al didn't do their homework and dig into the stories around alleged abuse the SSPX. Let's be clear, I'm not saying that abuse hasn't happened. What I am saying is that there is nothing to suspect that there is an orchestrated conspiracy to hide those that actually happened. This seems to be what Voris et al are keen on proving. Maybe I'm wrong.
But the self-righteous outrage presented by whomever is in control of the CMTV twitter account confirms that Twitter is for twits. They protest everything that doesn't meet the standards that they apply to others, but oddly don't apply to themselves.
It seems to be another cautionary tale about celebrity Catholics, that a rigid perspective on the crisis leads to a narrowing of that perspective to the point where everyone else is wrong or ... you reach a crisis point and lose perspective.
It is important to not give in and 'protest' things for the sake of protesting. They believe something is wrong, but fail to connect the dots to know why it is wrong. They pour themselves into the fight, learning more and more about less and less, until finally, they can't see that they are lost in the forest and only see one big fat ugly tree in front of them. This is the tree that they protest.
Keep your cups full to overflowing with grace and give to others from the excess!
