The May 2024 issue of First Things has a very revealing feature article on the myth of this ghostly giant movement. Author Kenneth Westward makes the point that most scholars, including those on the Left, are hard-pressed to define a White Christian nationalist, much less locate one.

However, these scholars are unconcerned. Those studying the issue reduce WCN to a narrative more than a movement. It is a kind of angst felt by left-behind White workers who want to assert their identity. It is best kept unmeasured in the realm of feelings and anger, not principles. There is no need to find organized programs or lobby groups with political connections to give it physical existence.

Completely fabricated. A conclusion in search of data to support it

WCN is the Wizard of Oz construct “lions, and tigers, and bears, OH MY”! Liberals want Whites to be racist so bad! The Mocking Bird Media and Liberals. They GOT nothing to demonize with!

White - skin color, can’t do anything about that

Christian - religion, protected under the First Amendment

Nationalism - definition:
identification with one’s own nation and support for its interests, especially to the exclusion or detriment of the interests of other nations.

Basically a patriot.

So... if i’m a White Christian Nationalist this is supposed to be bad??

sorry. i’m pro America because that’s my country. While i may detest 40% of the people in it (progressives), i’m still proud to be an American.

Anyone trying to vilify someone like me would obviously be trying to undermine support for the nation.

Why is this not intersectionality? That’s what I’m claiming.

“Christian nationalism” is another one of those terms coined and used only by the Left—as is “Saturday night special,” a term meaning “pistol” that was coined and is used by gun control advocates but not by gun owners.

“Christian Nationalist” is what we are called. No one is running around calling themselves this. This is an implicit attack on Christianity as if political ideas cannot be judged thru Christian morality.

Given enough time, demographic shifts, and a moving of the Overton Window, the left will go for a Night of the Broken Glass type event against christians and especially white ones in this country. They are pushing us to a post-Rhodesia Zimbabwe type situation.

I am 1,000% certain about this.

Whatever "white Christian nationalism" is, it is probably WEAKER now that at any time in our history. Christian religious belief is at its lowest level in our history, patriotism is probably at its lowest level ever, and nationalism is being replaced by globalism.

The dire warnings against WCN seem intended to bully the remaining Christian patriots into silence, provoke them to violence, or pave the way for their arrest.

“Judging from the liberal media uproar, the dangers of White Christian Nationalism (WCN) are immense.”

There was no such thing until the leftwing media invented it. Sort of like gay marriage.

But since they are against it and terrified of it, where do I join?
