"The slide away from democracy and toward right-wing authoritarianism in nations including Russia, Poland, Hungary, Brazil, and the United States today, and other nations in the past, is connected to and exacerbated by the historic and contemporary attitudes of a substantial part of the Christian populations of these lands. There are ‘Christian’ versions of populism, fascism, authoritarianism, and nationalism."

“It can be documented easily that in multiple countries conservative Christians have demonstrated susceptibility toward or active support for political authoritarianism as just described."

#Introduction: I’m a #history professor focusing on 20th-century #Europe, with a particular interest in the comparative history of #nationalism and of responses to Nazi aggression. My most recent book is Occupied: European and Asian Responses to Axis Conquest, 1937-1945 (Cambridge University Press, 2023). I’m also a co-editor of the two-volume Cambridge History of Nationhood and Nationalism, which was likewise published in 2023.

Sherman said that Israel must complete its work in Gaza before a ceasefire allows the terrorist organization to regroup, citing a high-level Hamas official, who told the Arab press, “We need another October 7 and another one after that and another one after that until Israel is destroyed.”

Suppose it’s a bit like the whole GNU/Linux stuff but with more of a subconcious prescence attached. What was once just ‘LGBT‘ which itself had been redundant enough by specifying homosexuality twice for either gender before finishing with bisexual and trans(sexual/gender).

Just ‘LGBT‘ alone did a pretty good enough job at encompassing the queer community in its entirety through those four umbrella terms. It was only when identity politics became prominent and subsequently dominated the movement that there was a need to be inclusive of everyone and not just the gays. That resulted in the ‘LGBTQIA+‘ we have now and the subsequent bastardization of their flag.

Elagarianism is great, I truly do appreciate the sentiment behind the interest in expanding a community to encompass all vulnerable minorities and have a rich, diverse tapestry of culture. Though there comes a point where if you market something to every possible demographic, then the message or culture surrounding it eventually becomes diminished as it evolves beyond the scope of what it originally had been into something generic. That is why I am a strong proponent of patriotism for a country. To love and celebrate the positive aspects of a country’s history or culture that came to shape and subsequently define what it is today.

Though in the interest of making tangible progress on the many social issues that specific people face, I do honestly feel it is far better to have multiple smaller movements which focus on and address a specific issue than several. Likewise, while I do believe that foriegn immigrants whether they be on a working visa or are have acquired citizenship should be accomodated within the scope of what is equitable. I do feel that a line should be drawn when those people try to undermine the culture of a country or otherwise impose their ideals or that of their homeland or religion on the natives. The grooming gangs of England and predominently Islamic streets where Shia law is enforced throughout is absolutely unacceptable. When you arrive in a country whether that be for work, seeking asylum or to simply enjoy a better quality of life. You should be expected to observe the laws and culture of that country secondary to your own.

Not everyone is going to be Muslim, therefore you should not assume that everyone must adhere to the same religious laws or tradition as you. When Tisha b’Av rolls around, you don’t see supermarkets stop selling non-kosher foodstuff, do they? No, and such exceptions shouldn’t be expected for Islamic or Christian beliefs either. After all, how do you think I would fair doing the same in a predominently Islamic country in North Africa or the Middle East? Not very well I’d imagine so why should such be the case in western countries.

"During the French Revolution, only 25% of so-called French people spoke French. In the 1860s only 10% of so-called Italians spoke Italians. Nations as we know them today are fairly new.... Meanwhile aristocratic cuisines were fairly globalized; the wealthy were all eating the same things."

Every #nation needs a certain amount of #fascists, to be able to enforce the reason of state. The #police is not coincidentally more #fascist than the population of most countries, definitely all #democracies. #Nationalism is always the inner heart of a nation. Fascism is just the consequent form of nationalism. 1/8
