Have we fallen into a mesmerized state that makes us accept as inevitable that which is inferior or detrimental, as though having lost the will or the vision to demand that which is good?

and for what?
some arbitrary idea of wealth and/or power? (ideas and statuses that will be gone in a few hundred years “at best”)

I dunno if it’s even “critiques of Christian nationalism.”
It was mostly just sharing things Christians say and do on public media.
