“Writing in 1844, Karl Marx famously called religion the “opium of the masses.” But where end times fascism is concerned, religion functions less like opium and more like amphetamine, agitating rather than soothing anxious souls. In many corners of the far right today, faith is an incendiary and explosive accelerant. God is gasoline tossed on already raging flames.”

~ Naomi Klein & Astra Taylor - End Times Fascism
