The mass as celebrated by Latin rite Roman Catholics till ~1962 when the mass was reformed to what is called the 'ordinary form'. The (traditional) latin mass is sometimes called the Tridentine mass. The mass is in latin, mostly inaudible to the attenders, the priest faces away from the people, much more solemn and ritualistic. Now it tends to be an SSPX or RadTrad fixation who are ultra-conservative and ultra-traditional. Despite that there is some actual Roman Catholic usage, and increasing usage like with the Priestly Fraternity of Saint Peter, but it remains the 'extraordinary form'.
Person 1: The Latin Mass is very beautiful and solemn.

Person 2: But I couldn't hear the Priest at all. Also I was at the back so I couldn't even see what was going on.
Person 3: The new mass focuses on community and participation, like the early church, maybe the new mass doesn't have the solemness and beauty of the former but we can keep working on it.
RadTrad: You ALL don't even have the real mass anymore, you aren't real Catholics, the Pope is an imposter, and you all should be afraid because Jesus came to dispense justice just like the movie "Judge Dredd" (1995)

Person 1, 2, 3: You need help RadTrad.

Get the latin mass mug.
A place where real Catholics go to worship God without being gay. Also the birthplace of the Crusades. Deus Vult!
I go to the Latin Mass because I’m badass...not like wimpy Catholics who need to hear the closet gay English mass priest tell them Jesus loves them despite their sins (and unwillingness to stop sinning).

Ancient form of the celebration of the Catholic rite of the Mass which pre-dates Vatican II. Spoken in Latin, this form focuses on God and His worship rather than man and his feeling of belonging or comfort.
My church still offers the Traditional Latin Mass

The 1962 Latin Mass missal, was promulgated by Pope John the 23rd. This came shortly after the Post-1955 Holy Week.
The FSSP uses the 1962 Missal

Sedes👺: What Missal do you heretics use?

FSSP: We use the 1962 Latin Mass Missal.

Sedes👺: Hah, you are heretics! We use the 1570 Missal of Pius V! Mhwahhaha!

FSSP: Why are we heretics?

Sedes👺: You are in Communion with the heretic Bergoglio. Anyone in communion with him is a protestant heretic!

SSPX🤓: Actually, your statement is erroneous. Being a protestant is one or a multitude of persons who are against the Pope. Thomas Cramner and many other protestants called the Papacy evil or heretical, the same what you are doing right now.

Sede👺:😱
