Taking the white Christian nationalist symbols at the Capitol riot seriously

We fight, We win, Am Yisrael Chai
The attack exposed the comfortable juxtaposition of Christianity and white supremacy.

There were crosses, “Jesus Saves” signs and “Jesus 2020” flags that mimicked the design of the Trump flags.


The Atlantic’s Jeffrey Goldberg wrote that “the conflation of Trump and Jesus was a common theme at the rally” among people he interviewed. “It’s all in the Bible. Everything is predicted. Donald Trump is in the Bible. Get yourself ready,” one told him. “Give it up if you believe in Jesus!” said another, then “Give it up if you believe in Donald Trump!” — which elicited loud cheers from nearby rioters.

Comfortably intermingled with Christian rhetoric and these Christian icons were explicit symbols of white supremacy.

Outside the Capitol, Trump supporters erected a large wooden gallows with a bright orange noose ominously dangling from the center. These Trump supporters managed to do something the Confederate army was never able to accomplish — fly the Confederate battle flag inside the U.S. Capitol. One widely shared image showed a rioter with the Confederate flag strolling past a portrait of William H. Seward, an anti-slavery advocate and Abraham Lincoln’s secretary of state, who was seriously wounded as part of the broad assassination plot in 1865 that killed Lincoln.


There remains a disturbingly strong link between holding racist attitudes and identifying as a white Christian.

Those people are legitimate Christians like I'm a 3 Michelin star chef. Only in dreams. Bible has plenty against such uprising against your fellow man.

Proverbs 17:11
An evil man seeks only rebellion, and a cruel messenger will be sent against him.

"Prosperity Christians" are blasphemers, not Christians.

No Christians entered the Capitol that day and I doubt many were in the crowd for Trump's rally before sending them to attack the Capitol.
