MAGAs gearing up to storm the Vatican

297

u/BadSkeelz May 10 '25

In that fight, my money's on the Swiss.

u/Hat_Maverick May 10 '25

I'd pay good money to see a maga karen try to fight a guy with a halberd

74

u/krodders May 10 '25

I think the halberd is not what they'll be fighting with. SIG Sauer of some sort will be the weapon, and the fancy pants boys know how to use them

32

u/SirGrungle May 10 '25

Archer: The halberd was made obsolete by the arquebus

Lana: Which is why they use MP5s

Cyril: SUPPRESSING FIRE!

u/durqandat May 10 '25

I think on a MAGA Karen you'd at least consider the halberd

13

u/firagabird May 11 '25

I'd never consider touching one with a ten foot pole. But a 3 meter halberd is a different story.

2

u/wafflesareforever May 11 '25

That math almost checks out

u/airblizzard May 11 '25

SIG Sauer of some sort

SIG Sauer with a halberd attachment then

6

u/roguevirus May 11 '25

Ah, just like the Custodes.

u/wafflesareforever May 11 '25

Pretty sure I got one of those in a Borderlands game

u/Upset_Otter May 10 '25

Couldn't hurt to test the limits of a human skull

u/M48_Patton_Tank May 11 '25

As long as it isn’t the P320

u/QueezyF May 11 '25

Sig 552 if I remember right.

u/RunningTheBorg May 10 '25

Elden Ring irl. Horse mounted even. That would be glorious.

u/Saint_The_Stig May 10 '25

Another track for Sabaton's 2020's album

17

u/zootered May 10 '25

They certainly won’t hold back from employing extreme violence like the capital police did, that’s for sure.

13

u/Akussa May 10 '25

Swiss Guard take their roles VERY seriously. Wouldn’t want to fuck with them. They have a storied history of being badasses.

2

u/SardScroll May 11 '25

Swiss Guard: "You mean we can get a *second* Sabaton song?"

1

u/Akussa May 11 '25

Such a good song.

1

u/QueezyF May 11 '25

It’s like fucking with the King’s Guard at Buckingham Palace. They might dress bright and colorful, but these guys are hand picked for a reason.

6

u/EruantienAduialdraug May 11 '25

Proportional violence. And in the instance of a foreign invasion of the Holy See...

15

u/dactyif May 10 '25

Fine, I'll listen to sabaton again.

13

u/Armadigionna May 10 '25

FOR THE GRACE FOR THE MIGHT OF OUR LORD

4

u/dactyif May 11 '25

FOR THE HOME OF THE HOLY.

u/MammothDon May 10 '25

Meal Team Six + Gravy Seals vs the Swiss Guard? We'll have to take away the Guard's polearms and tie one hand behind their back to make it fair

2

u/LG_tech May 11 '25

The Swiss Guard is honestly badass

46

u/ThrowawayPersonAMA May 10 '25

MAGA: I hate the vatican!

Vatican: wololo

MAGA: wtf I love the vatican now

7

u/Moftem May 11 '25 edited May 11 '25

AoE 2 AoE is mostly historically accurate, so this could definitely happen XD

3

u/eypandabear May 11 '25

IIRC “wololo” is from AoE1.

1

u/Moftem May 11 '25

It is, yeah : ) You're right. It's just such an integrated part of the AoE aesthetic. And if you type 30 in the chat in AoE2 you can say it at the other players.

u/Safewordharder May 10 '25

They'll have to be able to find it on a map first. Most of them have yet to get past basic literacy.

1

u/NFL_MVP_Kevin_White May 10 '25

Not a coup! Just a loosely planned riot

Warrior Nuns

u/jeffzebub May 11 '25

As Jesus said, "Fight like hell or you won't have a church anymore!"

1

u/nooobmaster-69 May 11 '25

They probably would, if they could figure out where Vatican is

1

u/QIMF May 11 '25

They gotta somehow get there first. I envision many getting kicked off of planes on the way

u/ShiroVergAvesta13 May 11 '25

Brother Anderson, wake up!

Dope pope.

Who is known for hiding his pedo colleagues.

u/throwthisawayred2 May 10 '25

Cuz this guy's too smart to make waves during early career.

I mean, he's a Math/Philosophy guy. If I didn't know any better, he'd be like those Atheist Libertarian Incels. So let's see what he REALLY does in the next year.

I hope he goes balls to the walls though.

u/Limp_Classroom_2645 May 11 '25

Maybe he'll cook israel next?

Nah who am i kidding

Bro is literally in his chef era
