December 31, 20222 yr White Christian Nationalism = White Power. It's a White Christian Nation. They want to establish it as the national religion. White people are the majority. They advocate violence. It's us vs. them. It rejects diversity of any kind. It leads to radicalization. It uses angry rhetoric to install fear. It calls for the destruction of government institutions and ripping up the Constitution. Men are dominant and women should submit. A wife should be submissive to her husband. (Sounds like Sharia Law). It's all in the video. The church is supposed to direct the Government. Lauren Boebert is typical of the movement.

But morons like js need that false equivalency to rationalize being socialists and against the actual constitutional values. How does Christian nationalism align with constitutional values?

I have enough of a clue to know that statistically, whites, Christians, nationalists and conservatives are overly represented relative to the general population. I also have enough of a clue to know that they aren’t going to march lockstep under the flag of dragqueen story hour. I am not questioning your statistics, however the 26 years of combined service in the Army and Navy gives me a little bit more insight on the average troop than you. I was a Christian conservative my entire career. The war on terror involved much more than OIF. The fact that Iraq was a CF is a different argument and one we would probably agree more than not.

Blah blah blah. There is nothing in the constitution that aligns with Christian nationalism. Arguing otherwise is a text book example of intellectual dishonesty.

Anecdotes over stats one day after you lecture people that anecdotes don’t count.

January 1, 20232 yr Ugh, Millennials ruin everything amiright? Now I'd take this with a massive grain of salt given that the millennials in the US and UK have dealt with Trump and Brexit respectively in their 30s so maybe it's just a blip in the radar. Housing market and generational wealth gap certainly doesn't help I'm sure though.

Regardless it’s semantics and really irrelevant to the argument at hand.

If a group of citizens is trying to overthrow the government, which is the military going to support? It's not that hard. The military isn't going to support a coup over partisan political nonsense. Which is all the MAGA crowd has at this point. Nor would I expect them to support as buncha V hat sporting liberals if they tried to overturn an election and attack government officials if they didn't get their way. Treason is kind of a big deal there.

One has gone full clown show liberal. In the other most of the men have gone conservative (some of them still dress the part of an old school socialist but they are full of it, actions speak louder) while the women have stayed rationally center left. In other words one group is acting like millennials and the other is curving classically.

If anything it’s less My brothers are bot Gen X and anecdotally I've seen them and their friends both get slightly more conservative I'd say. But at a very slow rate and pretty much everyone is still fairly liberal. My cohort is mostly following the millennial pathway, but that's somewhat self-selecting given a lot of my friends are from med school at this point. Young docs trend liberal nowadays.
January 2, 20232 yr Political "conservatism” as it exists now bears little resemblance to the conservatism of previous generations. It really doesn’t have much to offer anyone who isn’t already inclined to share in their anger and largely contrived grievances.
