I will add to the discussion that there are different versions of WCN at play in the contemporary moment. My research is revealing that soft-fascism entered the republican party as a result of the Southern Baptist Fundamentalist Takeover which is a distinct variation of the WCN presented here.

#ProgressiveSeminary we should get a group of seminary students together to talk about preparing for ministry as an Empire attempts to rise… I’m thinking 5 episodes for a limited series podcast. 1-2 hours per episode. Who can contribute to this work?

I'm struck by the near-total failure of leadership across civil society, in a country that fetishizes the concept. Whole sections of leadership books at every bookstore. Named, endowed "leadership" institutes and curricula across higher ed. Awards and special recognition for "leaders." AND YET

Theology cannot be politically neutral: because faith either liberates or oppresses. How has religion cultivated your sense of justice? Reply, read this newsletter, and subscribe to my substack: jtmartin.substack.com/p/faith-agai...

Straight men should be doing the red lipstick performative action because expressing queerly is an act of resistance, solidarity, and resilience.

This is a powerful moment for intersectionality. Marginalized groups must work together, strategize and support one another. It’s easy to feel despair right now, but if we work as one … we outnumber the hateful bigots among us. No one is coming to save us, so let’s save each other.

Make no mistake, "you do you" Covid policies helped pave the way for Trump's victory They emboldened him to be more aggressive and openly fascist this time around You can't throw away entire groups of people & not see very real consequences The Spanish Flu pandemic helped pave the way for Hitler

I'm beginning my theological coverage of Operation Reconquista... it is an alt-right movement within the mainline church and there is little coverage on the movement. Next Saturday my overview of the movement will drop.

This is a very succinct recounting of the history of Hitler's rise to power. It's worth seeing the sharp parallels with what is happening in 2025 in America. From a Threads user, it was too long to share here, so I copied it to my blog. PLEASE READ. crucibleofthought.com/a-brief-hist...

Focus on 1 or 2 things. Go deep on those. Focus on "news" about those things first and foremost. Think about the concrete actions you can take to impact those ONE or TWO things.

"Was Bishop Mariann Budde right to call for the protection of migrants and LGBTQ kids at the National Prayer Service?" Yes, she's allowed to talk about Christ's teachings at a church service. Next question.
