    I think you have it backwards. Christian nationalism is something they arrived at after already setting the foundation of political opinions.

    They start by wanting to eradicate all conflicting religions, elevate white people over other races, subjugate women, and eliminate social safety nets in order to reverse engineer the ideology and history they need to support what they already want.

      Palingenetic ultranationalism.

      The idea that facism rallies around an idea society has grown decadent, corrupt an alienating to the everyman and must return to a country’s mythic golden age when everything was better. It applies a “true inheritor” logic that describes a model citizen of the nation which is distinct from those who are it’s corrupting influence that must be subjugated or expunged by a country’s “rebirth” .

      While Christian nationalism is distinct it still shakes hands with others served by this model.
