Conspiracy theory is a caricatured, reductionist way to analyze and narrate power exercised in the material world. Rejecting conspiracy theory does not mean denying the complex, the veiled, or the existence of evil itself.

I mostly avoid reposting propaganda. But if I do, it’s to name it as antichrist. This is the power to crucify and it belongs to hell. Churches that bless it are Babylonian shrines. Do not confuse the power to crucify with the power of the Crucified One, who is peace.

Proofs are here. Feeling the weight of this book; what it stands for—naming the authoritarian nexus of falsehood & violence at work in white evangelicalism— and what it hopes in—truth for a common world.

80 years ago today, Dietrich Bonhoeffer was executed by Nazi Germany. “God consents to be pushed out of the world and onto the cross; God is weak and powerless in the world and in precisely this way, and only so, is at our side and helps us.”

“Its spectacle imposes an image of the good which subsumes everything that officially exists…usually concentrated in a single individual, the guarantor of the system’s totalitarian cohesion. Everyone must identify with this absolute star, or disappear.” Guy Debord, Society of the Spectacle

January 6 2021 was an apocalypse. Even today? In those who will downplay or deny what happened, it reveals the paranoid portrait of Christ at the heart of white evangelical Christianity in America.

"Sometimes we try to justify this unsavory business on the cynical ground that by rationing out the means of violence we can somehow control the world’s violence…[but] can we be both the world’s leading champion of peace and the world’s leading supplier of the weapons of war?" - Jimmy Carter
