Another hysterical leftist has a fit about 'Christian nationalism'
American Thinker ^ | 22 Sep, 2022 | C.S. Boddie

A new meme has emerged from leftists concerning conservatives: if conservatives are Christian, and especially if they support Trump, they are automatically Christian nationalists. This false narrative amounts to persecution of evangelical Christians.

Just this week, The Denver Post published an editorial masquerading as a news story that smeared Congresswoman Lauren Boebert as a "dangerous Christian nationalist." Not until the eleventh paragraph in the story did Conrad Swanson, the reporter, mention that Boebert's representative said that Boebert does not consider herself a Christian nationalist.

Seems Swanson had a narrative to feed first.

The headline on the story read, "Lauren Boebert is part of a dangerous religious movement that threatens democracy, experts say."

The story includes statements from so-called experts on sociology and religion who have a problem with Boebert's religion and expressed concern about Christian nationalism. However, most of the experts were sociologists and all seemed to be leftists. No balance in the story. Also, it is an old journalistic trick to hide your opinion behind quotes from experts.

If someone starts talking about “Christian Nationalists” you know right away they are a communist.

Communists don’t like the USA, and the really hate God.

The coming civil war will not be a war between the states. People will be killing their neighbors. People they know personally and used to get along with.

while there ARE a few “Christian nationalists” who are bigots wrapped in a flag

that is a quite small number of people

what seems to often be the case is that the leftwing uses the term “Christian nationalist” to refer to Christians who are nationalists (patriotic Americans), and that includes MILLIONS of citizen

think: deliberate smear

So is the reporter ok with being identified as an america hating, one-world globalist totalitarian socialist?

Thats how I accurately identify them.

Ask yourself this question - Would you trust your daughter with a sexual predator? If not, then why are you trusting a far-left writer and newspaper with telling the truth?

One rapes your body; the other rapes your mind.

Of course. How could they be anything else?

‘Christian nationalism’.

So the left’s version would be ‘Atheistic Pedophile’.

A hit piece on Christians?

Stay tuned... There’s a lot more coming down the pike since America seems to have submitted itself to the hard left, the haters of God in every respect.

Typical genZ jerkoff with a BA in journalism. “christian nationalism” is the latest hate meme of the progressive leftwingers. His “experts” are of course all similarly ignorant lefties.

I had the same thought, “He says that like it’s a bad thing.”

Liberals always, always overreach. They can’t help themselves.
