There has always been a clear pipeline between Christian Nationalists and right wing Christian populists to social nationalists sympathies. Itβs time to have a study tracking the rise of national socialists/authoritarian sentiment in the Christian Right. The data is there.

24 years since life changed for all of us who knew the innocence of pre-9/11 life. Tragedy has an odd effect of reminding us of the importance of unity despite our diversity. May we get back to that unity.

Political violence is cowardly. Itβs damnable. Itβs from the pits of hell. We are better than this a nation and we should not be satisfied until this violence is squashed.

The most interesting thing to watch with this rise of Christian Nationalism from within our own government, and by those like Doug Wilson, who have spent years working towards this, is how quickly it always becomes about the abuse of power and never about the advancement of biblical faith.

My assumption about the modern far-right conservative is that their ideology is not based on historical insight or even logic, but rather being an internet βedge-lord.β They quote memes for references, they bait AI to repeat their prejudice, and theyβre entirely selfish in their goals.

We need less pros on everything and more pros on one thing. A fault of the internet is that is had convinced people that they are intellectuals in multiple things simple bc they went down a YouTube rabbit hole. Itβs okay to not have an opinion on everything thatβs trendy.

Advocates of Christian Nationalism are very quickly becoming less silent on their fandom of national socialism. It relies on prejudice, historical revisionism, and the end goal of power consolidation. And those who advocate for it know all of this and they do not care.

Itβs not impossible for the US to have an OrbΓ‘n-like politician, and Trump clearly admires him. We donβt have to be in a crisis to fight against overreach though, we can do what we can to fight it now. People hardly ever know theyβre losing their democracy until itβs lost.
