It’s not permanent thankfully, but they make it look like the building has been vandalised. I’m not a fan at all.

Upper middle class edgelordism. Should have been “Romani ite domum”, at least that would have been mildly amusing for a second or two.

Does anyone actually think this is profound, interesting, thought provoking, appropriate, or beautiful? It’s a bunch of mindless scribbling in the art style of criminals and thugs.
Thought we would have moved beyond this 20th century idea of venerating the ugly and profane in 2025.
High Culture is good actually.

I’m sure he’d welcome genuine graffiti from the unheard!

I think it’s time to give the Cathedral back to the Catholics. They wouldn’t do this.
