PSA: I often point out that Christianity is a diverse tradition with MANY different theologies. Not because I'm #notallchristians, but because treating it as monolithic traps vulnerable people who don't want to leave their faith in damaging sects when there are alternatives.
There are Christian churches where LGBTQ+ people are respected, loved, and celebrated. Where abusers are held responsible and abuse victims aren't expected to forgive and forget. Where women are leaders & their autonomy is respected.
But if your hot takes say "Christian" and mean "this type of Christian" you contribute to making abusive theology normative. Don't let any one group "own" the title Christian and thus give them legitimacy.
And this is NOT about nonchristians I adore doing valid criticism, but about sloppy journalism.
