MTG: If you're not a Christian Nationalist you're a domestic terrorist.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene says that Christian nationalism is nothing to fear because it's the only thing that can stop school shootings, crime, and sexual immorality, declaring that anyone who opposes it is a "domestic terrorist."

And apparently she believes that they get a free pass for any sins that THEY commit if they believe in Jesus.

Apparently, in Republican-world, saying you found religion (meaning Christianity) absolves you (if you are white).

"...crime, and sexual immorality..." is to become a serial adulterer.

Make no mistake, she and others like her in positions of leadership want a "Christian nation" more than anything else. This is their ultimate goal

It might have worked on children's TV shows, but it doesn't really work in real life, Marjorie.

I consider the following to be terrorist acts:

Attacks on Women's reproductive rights.
Attacks on LGBTQ rights.

The pseudo-spiritual, right-wing, fundamentalist anti-christians are both actively involved in and supportive of the attempts to terrorize anyone and everyone whom they identify as a target in those areas.

It's the hate they bring to the attacks they engage in that elevate them to acts of terrorism.
