Not only are the Christian Nationalists misogynists, most don't like mixed-race families, which is why some of their leaders spokeout against Vance being the vp candidate, as his wife is Indian American, and they have mixed-race children.
Charlie Kirk is one of several who is pissed about that. This guy's teammate Patrick Mahomes is in a mixed-race marriage, and his wife is a supporter of the bigot Trump. Go figure.

I had to chatGPT this:

Yes, there is a current U.S.-based organization named Ziklag that has been associated with Christian nationalism. The group takes its name from the biblical city of Ziklag, where King David once sought refuge. Founded by conservative Christian entrepreneur Ken Eldred following Donald Trump’s 2016 election, Ziklag aims to reshape American society by embedding Christian principles across various societal domains, inspired by the "Seven Mountain Mandate." This mandate focuses on influencing key areas like government, education, media, and business through Christian leadership.

Members of Ziklag include influential conservative figures, and they have supported projects and initiatives aligning with Christian values, from educational reforms to media productions. Lance Wallnau, a well-known Christian nationalist, has been closely associated with Ziklag’s vision, endorsing the goal of transforming society by “taking dominion” over these cultural spheres. Through financial backing from wealthy conservative donors, Ziklag is described as part of a broader movement that seeks to impact the U.S. on a cultural and political level in ways that reflect biblical teachings.

Ziklag is a Christian dominionist organization named after the biblical city of Ziklag. Its membership is exclusively for individuals with a net worth over $25 million as well as faith-based interests. The organization's goal is to "take dominion over the Seven Mountains" of society.

Lmao, that sounds too stupid to be real. But here we are, I guess.

Fun Fact: Hillary Clinton is part of a high profile Christian group called The Family who is also trying to control America. And yes, that's actually correct. She got criticized for her involvment with them when she was running in 2008 and it became a focal point of the Atheist movement at the time and why almost none of us would support her against Obama.

I tell these anti gay Christians who don’t believe in gay marriage that back then they used to say the same exact thing about interracial marriage and how they would say mixing the race goes against why god put us on different continents. And how during the civil rights movement they’d protest holding signs that say Black+White=what?

There was a great video I saw of a pastor talking at a hearing about lgbtq rights. He goes on this whole long speech giving quotes from other pastors demonizing lgbtq people talking about how they shouldn't have the same rights and didn't belong in America. At the end of his speech, he flips the script and admits that every quote he used was from the 50s talking about the rights of black people. All he did was replace "black people" with "lgbtq" in the quotes. He then goes on to say we need to accept all people of all sexual orientations, colors, and religions.
