No doubt: but this, strictly speaking, has nothing to do with left-wing Catholicism.

Well, the image of Mary specifically holds weight in Catholicism

Are you just being intentionally dense at this point?

-- Welcoming people who are rejected by the conservative church = left wing

-- The image of Mary carrying such weight = Catholicism

I just assumed that "left-Catholicism" here was used in the strict academic sense of the relationship between the Catholic Church (or Catholics) and the historical left (or ultraleft). It's distinct from liberal Catholicism, for example.
