Supplementary #MagazineUSMotherJonesKieraButler "Earlier this week, Moscow, Idaho, pastor Doug Wilson made a big announcement: In July, his church will be opening a branch in Washington, DC, just blocks away from the US Capitol building. In a blog post, Wilson, a self-proclaimed Christian nationalist, wrote that he believed that the moment was right to bring his version of Christianity to the nation's capital. 'We believe that there will be many strategic opportunities with numerous evangelicals who will be present both in and around the Trump administration,' he wrote. ... even in the TheoBros fraternity, Wilson stands out as a firebrand: He has argued that the master-slave dynamic was 'a relationship based upon mutual affection and confidence,' called the trope of the dominant man and a submissive woman 'an erotic necessity,' and opined that women never should have been given the right to vote." https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2025/05/a-christian-nationalist-theobro-church-is-coming-to-dc/ #ToponymAmericaNorthUSWashingtonDCUSCapitol #IRLReligiousLeaderPastorDougWilson [Wikipedia] #PoliticsNationalismChristian #MetaphorDissenterVeryOnlineRight #CharacterisationTheoBros #BeliefTheismChristianityDenomEvangelicalism #SymbolSlaveMaster #PowerControlSubmissiveness #PowerControlDominance

"AFRICAN AMERICANS
African Americans, who constitute approximately 13.3% of the U.S. population, claim ancestry from Africa and the Caribbean as well as many parts of Central and South America. Persons born and raised in the United States and persons born in South America or the Caribbean before emigrating here share common racial and cultural characteristics, but may differ widely in their perspectives on other factors (U.S. Census Bureau, 2017). The arrival of Africans onto the shores of America stands apart from all other cultural, ethnic, and racial groups who began new lives in this country. While every other group arrived voluntarily, Africans were uprooted and brought to America involuntarily as slaves. This cultural upheaval has had profound sociocultural, economic, and psychological effects on the experience of African Americans ever since, resulting in traumatic cultural losses and significant disparities in access to education, employment, health care, and financial services. The racism inherent in the practice of slavery has, hundreds of years later, continued to subtly shape policies and practices while limiting access to the ladder of success.
African American Populations
As of 2017, there were roughly 43.6 million African Americans, or 13.4% of the United States Population (US Census Bureau). Rates of poverty, family dissolution, unemployment, incarceration, ill health, and shortened lifespan are much greater for African Americans than their White counterparts (U.S. Department of Health and Human Services [DHHS], 2001). The median household income for Black non-Hispanics is $36,898 compared to White non-Hispanics at $62,950 (U.S. Census Bureau, cited in Proctor, Semega, & Kollar, 2016).

#NewspaperUKBrdshtTheGuardianJasonWilson "Curtis Yarvin is hardly a household name in US politics. But the 'neoreactionary' thinker and far-right blogger is emerging as a serious intellectual influence on key figures in Donald Trump's coming administration in particular over potential threats to US democracy. Yarvin, who considers liberal democracy as a decadent enemy to be dismantled, is intellectually influential on vice president-elect JD Vance and close to several proposed Trump appointees. The aftermath of Trump's election victory has seen actions and rhetoric from Trump and his lieutenants that closely resemble Yarvin's public proposals for taking autocratic power in America." https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2024/dec/21/curtis-yarvin-trump #2024_

#MagazineUSTheAtlanticAliBreland "The current moment looks a lot like fusionism 2.0: The uniting through line of opposing communism has been replaced by an opposition to 'wokeness,' as the University of Virginia historian David Austin Walsh has observed. The similarities between the political moments provide a rough model for how the new MAGA coalition might persist. In the original fusionism, communism was almost always a bigger deal than whatever libertarians and social conservatives didn't see eye to eye on. This worked because 'communism' never just meant one thing. It could be invoked to oppose the Soviet Union and the literal ideology of communism, to thwart the supposedly communist-infilitrated civil-rights and anti-war movements, or to refer to anything related to left-wing politics. Wokeness now serves that function on the right. It's no coincidence that wokeness is a rebranded version of the right's previous bogeyman: 'cultural Marxism.' As Musk has ripped up federal agencies in a supposed effort to reduce government waste, a lot of what DOGE has actually focused on is rooting out perceived wokeness."
