Bergoglio has been using the term "rigid" to attack faithful Catholics and Sound Catholic Doctrine

Bergoglio has being using the term "rigid" to attack orthodoxy
Pope Pius XII: Whoever accuses the Church and its Morals of being hard and rigid, actually accuses Jesus Christ.
"It so happens that the accusation of oppressive rigidity made against the Church by the ‘new morality,’ in reality, attacks, in the first place, the adorable Person of Christ Himself."
What Does Bergoglio Mean By "Rigid"?

Let's be honest, this term is typically Bergoglian. No one is even sure what, exactly, it means. I don't get why someone at the Vatican doesn't grab hold of him and tell him to either explain himself or just shut up. We can't say for sure exactly what is on his mind, but the tendency is to assume it means Catholics who abide by Church teaching instead of embracing the chaotic pseudo-Christianity preached by the Argentinian Pontiff. It really is hard to get away from the shocking impression that the Pope of Rome has being using the term "rigid" to attack orthodoxy, and this is all the more shocking when one considers he has done this throughout his papacy. At best, the term is a vague metaphor which in and of itself, calls for clarification - how very Pope Francis!
This term does not appear in Scripture or the Tradition of the Church, it is a Bergoglian innovation. It is something he uses as a hammer against those who he disagrees with. Although it is certainly not clear who exactly that is, although faithful, orthodox Catholics have taken it as a very personal attack and have felt personally criticised throughout the papacy of Jorge Bergoglio. Stop being so set in your ways! Loosen up!
When you consider the pope's avant garde approach to liturgy from the outset, his evident disdain for theology, fundamental Catholic doctrine and Canon Law (for example he raised Zanchetta, the gay porn bishop and one of the very first Argentines whom Francis promoted, on his own initiative, bypassing all canonical procedure, on July 23, 2013) it seems in keeping he would have an unreasonable hatred for anyone who does care about the Catholic Church.
Indeed, one of the biggest groups of Catholics since pope Francis was elected on Facebook was self-proclaimed "Rigids". The problem is made clear from this very fact: Catholics see rigidity - faithfulness as a good thing! Of course we do! I recall as a young man a priest telling me that the Catholic Church was like a great anchor in the sea of chaos. Secular storms rage all around the Barque of Peter but anchored to Sacred Scripture, Tradition & the Magisterium: that is to the truth that is Our Lord & Saviour, Jesus Christ, the Church stands steady against the storm.
It stands firm. It is the Rock. We are Faithful, steady...Rigid.
The use of this term as a pejorative seems counter-intuitive to any Catholic because we are by definition rigid in our faith. We are sure; certain in the knowledge of the truth. Surely we want the foundations of our beliefs to be firm and solid, not built on shifting sand? We want our beliefs to be something we can rely on. In Matthew 27 Jesus says that His teachings are a firm foundation to base our lives on rigidity and a firm foundation is exactly what we should be looking for!
There are our two options in religion. We can expect our religion to change to become more compatible with who we are, which is idolatry, or we can change to be more aligned with who and what God is – which is worship.
So being firm in faith does not mean we do not change. Yes we change - metanoia - "change" is the whole point of the Gospel message Jesus preaches:
“Repent, for the kingdom of heaven has come near.” - Mt 4:17
(...)
With careful reflection on this lesson we aim to change ourselves, to become like Jesus: Christ Like. The Imitation of Christ. That's our journey.
But in order to embark on this journey we need to train ourselves to stand fast to the teachings of Jesus despite the storm raging all about us that would force us to desist on our voyage to Christ. (2 Thess 2:15).
