Far-right activists in Britain are increasingly adopting the rhetoric of Christian nationalism. Yet while they look to American churches for an example, their evangelical style seems unlikely to map onto Brits’ quite different attitudes toward religion.
Didn’t Christian nationalism literally come from Britain? It didn’t spontaneously form from the ether in America. A bunch of brits sailed to America to slaughter native Americans because God “wanted them to”, a few generations pass and then here we are. And no I’m obviously not saying it is actually this simple (“Americans = brits + time”), but the headline seems dumb to me too.
