“I am here. I am with you!”
This salutation by 'Pope Leo XIV' in October '25, to a meeting of Marxists in Rome, demands more than all the explanations and popesplaining that the conciliar church and its fellow-travellers could possibly muster. It calls for the resignation of Robert Prevost from the Seat of St Peter.
It wasn't a flash in the pan, a spur of the moment comment in the style of his airborne interviews. 'Pope Leo' was formally addressing the fifth World Meeting of Popular Movements (WMPM), last October at Spin Time Labs in Rome, under the auspices of the Vatican’s Dicastery for Promoting Integral Human Development. The WMPM consists of card-carrying Communists. They praise Karl Marx, read aloud his Manifesto, praise Lenin and Castro and call for revolution. They promote infanticide, sodomy and transgenderism. And it was the third meeting of these malcontents to be held by the Vatican.
The WMPM, which began in 2014 under Pope Francis, has consistently served as a platform for uniting self-identified Marxist, Communist, and Socialist organizations under the moral authority of the Catholic Church. But how can that be? As Pope Pius XI stated, those “who profess and particularly those who defend and spread, the materialistic and anti-Christian doctrine of the Communists” are ipso facto excommunicated as apostates from the faith.
And in '25, for the first time, delegations of “popular movements” were officially accompanied by mandated representatives from local churches, diocesan Justice and Peace commissions, and episcopal conferences: a mechanism for spreading anti-Catholic Marxist ideologies, per kind favour of the Synodal counterfeit of the Catholic Church, throughout the conciliar Catholic Church itself.
Catholics are fully entitled, of course, to conclude that the man they call pope is just hopelessly naive and easily led, and if he publicly recants and cuts all ties with the Marxist wing of the Church, they'll be satisfied. Or. They may examine 144 pages of evidence from the Lepanto Institute and decide that Robert Prevost is a Communist, ergo, ipso facto excommunicated as an apostate from the Catholic religion.
It's highly ironic - and heaven-sent poetic justice - that the question of excommunication in regard to 'The Pope' himself should arise just when the Church is in a hubbub over the episcopal consecrations intended by the Society of St Pius X (SSPX) for July 5, which were declared today by His Eminence Cardinal Víctor Manuel Fernández to constitute "a schismatic act". Can there be any doubt now, that it is Marxist Rome itself that is in schism?
And then one must consider the timing of the Lepanto exposé, on the anniversary of the apparition of the Mother of God at Fatima, and recall Her warning to the little shepherds, that if Her requests were not granted, “Russia will spread its errors throughout the world".
Did we ever think that Rome would co-operate with Russia? Well yes, we did, and nobody noticed.

Since 2014, there have been 5 meetings of Popular Movements sponsored by the Vatican in various locations. The first was held in the Vatican. The second in Bolivia. The third was again held in the Vatican. The fourth was a virtual meeting held online. And in October of 2025, the Vatican again hosted the World Meeting of Popular Movements, and for the first time without Pope Francis.
The Lepanto Institute has just released an in-depth analysis of the nature of the World Meeting of Popular Movements, the organizations involved, the venue in which it was held, and the final declaration the meeting participants delivered to Pope Leo.
The terrible reality about this meeting is that the organizers, participants, and venue are all Marxists subscribing to what Pope Leo XIII called the “fatal fruit” of Socialism. And given the consistent and unwavering condemnations of all forms of communist/socialist/Marxist ideologies – “under various and almost barbarous names” as Pope Leo XIII said of them – this is a meeting that should never have happened, and can never be licit.
In Rerum Novarum, Pope Leo XIII explicitly stated that regardless of what name these socialist entities call themselves, their central tenet – the holding of goods in common – is to be “utterly rejected.” Pope Pius XII took it a step further, declaring that those “who profess and particularly those who defend and spread, the materialistic and anti-Christian doctrine of the Communists” are ispo facto excommunicated as apostates from the faith.
This report on the World Meeting of Popular Movements (WMPM) is deadly serious because of the grave danger it poses to the Faithful and to civilization itself. The most pernicious element of the 5th WMPM, separating it from the others, is that each of the participating organizations was to have a mandated delegate accompany them for the purpose of “building bridges” between these groups and the Church. The WMPM Coordinator, Don Matteo Ferrari, specifically linked this meeting with the Church’s new direction of Synodality.
The fully-documented 144 page report proves beyond all doubt that the participants in the WMPM are committed Marxists who praise Karl Marx, read his Communist Manifesto aloud, praise Communist revolutionists like Lenin and Castro, and who call for revolution, have ties to guerrilla violence, and who declare their desire to seek a Socialist society. Many participants are also vocally pro-abortion and promote homosexual and transgender ideologies.

ConclusionExecutive Summary
The Lepanto Institute’s report examines the fifth World Meeting of Popular Movements (WMPM), held October 21–24, 2025, at Spin Time Labs in Rome under the auspices of the Vatican’s Dicastery for Promoting Integral Human Development.
It argues that the WMPM, which began in 2014 under Pope Francis, has consistently served as a platform for uniting self-identified Marxist, Communist, and Socialist organizations under the moral authority of the Catholic Church.
The 2025 gathering marked a significant escalation: for the first time, delegations of “popular movements” were officially accompanied by mandated representatives from local churches, diocesan Justice and Peace commissions, and episcopal conferences. This integration risks spreading Marxist ideologies, abortion advocacy, and LGBT activism directly into Catholic communities through synodal structures.
Pope Leo XIV, elected only five months earlier, addressed the WMPM and referenced his first Apostolic Exhortation, Dilexi Te on the Love for the Poor. In paragraphs 80–81 of the exhortation, he acknowledged that popular movements have often been “viewed with suspicion and even persecuted,” yet he urged their inclusion in building a “common destiny” alongside local, national, and international governing structures.
During his address to participants, he echoed Francis’s slogan of “land, housing, and work” as “sacred rights,” declared “I am here. I am with you!” and praised the movements as “social poets,” “champions of humanity,” and “poets of solidarity.”
He called their struggles “legitimate and necessary” and stated that the Church should “accompany” them, just as it once accompanied union leaders. The report views these statements as deeply troubling given the documented ideologies of the attendees.
The venue itself—Spin Time Labs—is emblematic of the event’s character. A squatter-occupied building, eviction from which Pope Francis had previously blocked, Spin Time is an openly Marxist, “transfeminist” space that has hosted Communist Party events, pro-abortion marches with “Non Una di Meno,” transgender fundraising events, and vulgar nude performances such as “La Merda.”

Photographic evidence shows WMPM coordinator Don Matteo Ferrari at one such performance, and images from the 2025 meeting itself depict Cardinal Czerny and Cardinal Baldassare Reina inside Spin Time amid Marxist and ANTIFA symbols and an obscene painting.
The report profiles seven organizations on the WMPM Organizing Committee in detail:
- Movimento dos Trabalhadores Sem Terra (MST, Brazil): A founding and leading member, MST openly celebrates Karl Marx, reads the Communist Manifesto at family events, sings an anthem calling for rebellion against oppressors, and celebrates the anniversary of Marx’s death. It aggressively promotes “legal and safe abortion” as a feminist and anti-capitalist demand and has held national meetings for transvestites and transsexuals, declaring the fight for land inseparable from the fight against “LGBTphobia.”
- Mediterranea Saving Humans (Italy): Led by longtime Marxist activist Luca Casarini (formerly of the White Overalls/autonomist Marxist movement), the group was founded with Communist party support. Casarini has praised Marx, marched with Communist organizations, participated in LGBT Pride events, and supported abortion. Pope Francis and Pope Leo XIV both expressed personal support for Casarini.
- Unión de Trabajadores de la Economía Popular (UTEP, Argentina): Deeply tied to Peronist/Kirchnerist revolutionary politics and Movimento Evita, UTEP celebrates Hugo Chávez, the Bolivarian Revolution, and Communist leaders. It has joined anti-fascist “pride marches” alongside LGBT and feminist groups.
- La Via Campesina (international, with heavy MST influence): Explicitly calls for “socialist society,” declares “Without Feminism There Is No Socialism,” and demands legalization of abortion and full LGBTQI+ rights.
- PICO California (United States): Celebrates socialist historical figures, hosts events for “reproductive rights,” and promotes Harvey Milk, transgender “awareness,” and the idea that “Trans people are divine” while tying its justice work to “Black Trans liberation.”
Additional participants—such as AVAELA (represented by a Spanish Socialist Workers’ Party official), Abahlali baseMjondolo (which conducts collective readings of the Communist Manifesto and advocates “living communism”), CUC, CNA, FRENADESO, and CENARAB—display similar patterns of Marxist theory, revolutionary rhetoric, admiration for Fidel Castro and other Communist figures, and explicit support for abortion and “gender diversity.”
What sets this particular event apart from previous World Meetings of Popular Movements is that for the first time the participating organizations were accompanied by mandated representatives from local churches. The basic idea, reflected in the press conference remarks of the WMPM’s coordinator Don Matteo Ferrari, is that the accompanying church representatives with the participating organizations “is a sign of the synodal Church that builds bridges.”
This is further corroborated by the Event’s schedule for “the Jubilee Pilgrimage of Popular Movements … which will culminate in the Jubilee Mass of the Synod teams and participation bodies.” The grave danger of aligning mandated representatives of local churches with these openly Marxist organizations cannot be overstated – these Marxist organizations will use the opportunity to recruit faithful Catholics to join their ranks and to spread their messages throughout the Church.
This is why this report contains a chapter citing the Church’s immutable condemnations of both Communism and Socialism, reiterating the still active prohibitions of Catholics holding, spreading, or supporting these ideologies.
This report also addresses and analyzes the WMPM’s Final Declaration, which calls for various “structural, economic, and political actions” including universal basic income, reduced working hours, “popular democracy,” “gender equality” (explicitly referencing “gender diversities”), and unrestricted migrant rights.
It demands universal public healthcare (in a context where many signatories champion abortion) and proposes bringing the Rome platform and Pope Leo’s message back to local dioceses and churches.
The Declaration explicitly links the work of popular movements to Pope Francis’s and Pope Leo’s calls for a “synodal Church” that walks with the peripheries, and envisions a global alliance of movements, civil society, and the Catholic Church to build “fraternity, equality, and justice.”

All evidence contained in the report came from primary sources: official video of the event, Vatican documents, organizational websites and social media posts, and news outlets. Nothing contained in this report is speculative but rather presents the facts as they are, providing indisputable evidence of the political, economic, social, and moral dispositions of each organization and individual mentioned.
To conclude, the report illustrates how the WMPM’s history and 2025 iteration demonstrate an irreconcilable conflict with Catholic social teaching, particularly the condemnations of socialism and communism in Rerum Novarum and subsequent encyclicals.
It acknowledges the remote possibility that Pope Leo himself was unaware of the full ideological character of the groups and venue but insists that Vatican coordinators such as Cardinal Czerny and Don Mattia Ferrari cannot claim ignorance.

The report calls on Pope Leo XIV to formally disband the WMPM, condemn the participating organizations, and discipline the clerics responsible for facilitating the event and its integration with local churches. It warns that continued collaboration risks giving ecclesiastical approval to ideologies that are fundamentally opposed to the Church’s moral, social, and theological doctrine.
In the end, the 2025 WMPM is not an isolated aberration but the logical culmination of a decade-long project that now seeks to embed Marxist-inspired activism within the synodal life of the Church at every level. https://www.lepantoin.org/wp/pope-leo-to-october-meeting-of-marxist-revolutionaries-i-am-here-i-am-with-you/#comment-171999
