If they're just using some of the talking points but not the jargon of the ethno-state, I just assume that they've fallen into the indoctrination circle and hope they'll get back out instead of becoming CN.

I mean, my personal framework is that if someone personally identifies as a CN, I believe them. If someone uses the rhetoric that equates to a white Christian ethno-state, I assume they're intelligent enough to know what they're talking about.

Does it mean that some people who don't realize they're throwing around Christian Nationalist ideology get painted as Christian Nationalist? You bet it does!

Does that make them any less Christian Nationalist, just because they're not critically examining their own ideology? Nope!

My folks throw fascism around like CRT a lot of the time. But Authoritarian? White supremacist? White nationalist? Christian Nationalist? Those are used as intentional terms with specific meanings.

In addition to what Jim said, Christian Nationalism is a particular strain of white supremacy that wants the US to be an explicitly white, Christian nation-state, often by any means possible. In my time hanging out with US leftists, I've rarely heard it used otherwise.

The people who told you they were protecting the kids only to be part of an international child abuse ring? They're your enemies. The people who are gutting social services, educational funding, medical research, the environment, etc are your enemy. Not the drag queen reading story books.

We got to brutal mass deportations in the same way we got cops doing the lynchings & calling it an accident or a mistake or a tragic error. The reform school and Indian boarding school systems killed kids and wrecked communities and even now we're still pretending institutionalized abuse is a fluke

I think we can add to this dataset that those of us in the US have never lived through an authoritarian takeover before, and any balance of news consumption above 0 inflicts trauma these days.

Outside of the absolute bombshell of a name 🙄 there are so many WTAF parts of this abhorrent bill.

All this bill does is encourage people to buy absolute shit policies and hope they never get sick or injured.

Happy reading, friends!

Many thanks to @rahaeli.bsky.social and @catastrfy.bsky.social for the conversations about MCAS in the brain! I was able to onboard Benadryl soon enough to cut this fucker in half.
