In addition to the '90s options of Christian radio and Fox News, people now can disappear down conservative "Christian" information silos, where so many conspiracy theories are offered that they can "pick and choose their narrative." 3/5 https://twitter.com/oliverdarcy/status/1355544878990688259
The "Trump Event" exposed the divide between those Christians who still value facts and truth and those who don't. QAnon. Anti-vaxxers. Covid deniers. Election fraud. Religious liberty. False flags. Fake news. Socialism. CRT. Anti-BLM. Religious liberty. All are of 1 piece. 4/5
The fundamentalists who constantly cry "worldview" are the very ones who value truth the least. And don't you dare call them out for it, if you value your relationships.
