"Vance is the most disliked figure on either party’s ticket this election year: He’s an unmitigated asshole.
But there’s a group of white men who believe that he may be something more."

/5Inside the creepy push to make JD Vance America's 'Christian Prince'

"They see Vance’s ugly attacks on women, immigrants, and others as points to be celebrated. And they see him as the leader they’ve been looking for, a kind of anti-diversity messiah—a 'Christian Prince' for a white nationalist America. ...
They see Vance as endorsing their central tenet—that America is for white Christians."

"Other people may be in America, but they live there only with the sufferance of the nation’s true owners. ...
It’s a conglomeration of men who believe that oppressing women and crushing diversity is the way to convert America into their white Christian paradise."

Racism and misogyny dressed up in clerical robes.
Disgusting.
But it has been so since the Iron Age.

@MylesRyden Yes, disgusting, and, yes, deeply embedded in many of the religious traditions of the world.

@wdlindsy His views about abortion, birth control and the role of women in society isn't that far of of what we had in catholic religious education in the 80ies and early 90ies at catholic schools here in Belgium. 95% or more of my classmates didn't agree with most of that. But it all sounds familiar to me...

@bartvdpoel Yes, this movement neatly intersects with a hard-right Catholic movement in which Vance is situated, and which now controls the Supreme Court.

@wdlindsy first time I hear about those theobros. Do they have something like an internet presence where I could look up their "theology"?

@wdlindsy they want to replace the constitution with the ten commandments and, to achieve it, they bear false witness and align themselves with Nazis, pedophiles, and other pervs.
Makes sense. Totally.

@benny One of their gathering places is at American Reformer (link below). They're not exactly an organized group, and there's not an officially designated site for them. If you read Kristin Kobes du Mez and Julie Ingersoll, who follow them to critique them, you'll find some good links to sites where they dominate.

@wdlindsy Thanks for the article connection, this says is Vance the Couch guy.
"As one of Vance’s biggest admirers writes, the idea of being governed by a woman is a “punishment from God.” " Not my God, she would save Vance's Couch.
