The Right’s ‘Grooming’ Rhetoric Didn’t Begin with QAnon — You Have to Go Back a Bit Further to Get to the Source

By Sophie Bjork-James

…have instead framed their efforts as protecting children. A prime example comes in the form of opposition to trans rights bills, often called “Bathroom Bills” by Christian Right groups in order to ratchet up the fear, since they claimed that these bills would put women and girls at risk by allowing male predators into female bathrooms. This tactic remains in play because it accomplishes so much. It works. First, it shifts the conversation away fr…

Kirill’s Sermon May Be Bad Preaching and Even Worse Theology — But it’s a Top-Notch Rejection of Liberal Democracy

By Daniel Schultz

…out justice is capitulation and weakness. Therefore, forgiveness must be accompanied by the indispensable preservation of the right to stand on the side of the world, on the side of God’s truth, on the side of the Divine commandments. None of this is offered in good faith, if you will excuse the phrase. Kirill blames the Ukrainians for Russia’s war of choice, then demands that they admit their offense against the Russians if they want to be offere…

The Failure to Focus on — And Yes, to ‘Cancel’ — Right Wing Antisemitism is a Problem

By Elad Nehorai

…rs earlier, McCarthy had removed former Representative Steve King from his committee assignments due to a comment sympathetic to white supremacists. Whether gauging the interest through Google trends: …or through social media interest (source: BuzzSumo)… …the simple reality is that a Black woman’s misstatement on the View got far more attention than a congresswoman’s attendance at a Neo-Nazi conference, an act that would have once been considered…

Don’t Laugh at Rick Scott’s ‘Plan to Rescue America’ or Be Fooled by Reports of a ‘Backlash’ — His Only Mistake Was Revealing the Truth of Today’s GOP

By Annika Brockschmidt

…raise taxes for more than half of Americans including pensioners and low-income people—harking back to Mitt Romney’s ’47-percent’ comment in 2012. After criticism from Jen Psaki and Chuck Schumer, Scott sat with Sean Hannity for a softball-interview during which he denied that his plan included any tax hikes—a lie that Hannity happily let slide. The tax hike, Scott claims in the document, would be necessary to “grow America’s economy, starve Washi…

Satanic Harmonies and Zoom Church: Readers Respond

By Daniel Schultz

…ress difficult at best. For another, having many friends in the disability community and close relatives who have been immunocompromised and at great risk from the pandemic, yes, I’m pretty sensitive to “the terrible dilemma faced by the disabled.” I don’t think that’s anything to apologize for. More important, N.T.’s argument implies that “fully-abled persons” have a duty to attend church in a particular form. It also implies that I have an oblig…

By Robert P. Jones

…generations. If we white Christians can muster the courage to walk in its company, discomfort with our racial history can be a sacred and saving gift. ### This article was originally published on Jones’ #WhiteTooLong substack newsletter.

Praying for a Victory: Packed Supreme Court Takes Up Yet Another Christian Nationalist Cause

By Andrew L. Seidel

…nment power to extend the reach of that religious exercise over the entire community. When it asked the Supreme Court to take the case, the Institute brazenly claimed the prayers were “a quiet prayer by himself,” a “personal prayer,” and “a silent or quiet prayer.” As the photos show, this is untrue. https://twitter.com/BradleySGirard/status/1482098135577071621 A judge on the Ninth Circuit called out the Institute’s dishonesty, writing that its cl…

As US Reaches a 1940s Fork in the Road — Which Path Will We Choose?

By John Stoehr

…emocratic leaders call this a “continuation of January 6.” https://twitter.com/therecount/status/1480225343537569802 That’s crucial, and we don’t know how this will play out. Another big, unpredictable factor is the pandemic. I think future historians (provided humanity survives) will debate how COVID helped push the previous president out of power, particularly his lack of ability to address it effectively. A third major factor is the midterms. Y…

Facing White Christianity’s Role in the January 6th Insurrection

By Robert P. Jones

…ctionists managed to do something the Confederate Army was never able to accomplish during the Civil War: fly the Confederate battle flag inside the Capitol. One widely shared image showed a rioter with the flag strolling by a portrait of William H. Seward, an anti-slavery advocate and Abraham Lincoln’s secretary of state, who was seriously wounded in the assassination plot that killed Lincoln in 1865. Comfortably intermingled with these tributes…

Sometimes Dialogue is Not the Answer and Neutrality is a Trap: An Interview with the Authors of ‘The Neutrality Trap’

By Chrissy Stroop

…looking at the fundamental problem with how policing is conducted towards communities of color. The reaction of many in the conflict-resolution field was to propose some form of mediated police/community dialogues. [Generally speaking] we not only support the use of dialogues—both of us have organized and conducted many such interactions. But this was the wrong time and the wrong emphasis. Systems needed to be disrupted, a movement needed to be b…
