MODERATORS
I appreciate your attempt to bring a longer timescale into conservative christofascism in America but 30 years is still about 300 years too short.
Remember our earliest colonies were totalitarian theocracies with extreme racial purity beliefs
Many people don't realize that the first colonies were founded by Christians that believed the churches in their home county were not being authoritarian enough. The wanted religious freedom, sure, but they wanted the freedom to be theocratic like you said.
