I've spent the last few months conducting and publishing interviews with some brilliant thinkers on white evangelicalism & Christian nationalism on my podcast Powers & Principalities. I hope people can use it as a resource, long after this election cycle. open.spotify.com/show/3KLVkLLHW…
@C_Stroop@SuperHungryPod@JesseDamiani having just had an unexpected convo w/ a conservative relation (I went to school to become a minister (I didn't), studied US religious & political history, and have catalogued stories of people leaving evangelicalism for 4 years on @exvangelicalpod), it's very hard.
@C_Stroop@SuperHungryPod@JesseDamiani@exvangelicalpod they have been conditioned by decades of Fox News & Limbaugh & worse to look for grievances and exploit them when conversing with liberals. Broad emotional comments with no bearing in history or reality. Appeals to authority and "tradition" are paramount.
