Summary

Katherine Stewart’s book, Money, Lies and God: Inside the Movement to Destroy American Democracy, warns of a coordinated right-wing movement aiming to dismantle U.S. democracy.

This movement, comprising Christian nationalists, billionaire oligarchs, and conservative ideologues, aims to dismantle pluralistic democracy and establish a theocratic system.

Stewart highlights its deep organization, financial backing, and strategic voter mobilization, contrasting it with less coordinated pro-democracy efforts.

    The only difference between these folks and the Taliban are what type of hat they wear.

      I fear fundamentalist Christians the most because you can’t spot them in a crowd by a funny hat and beard like other fundamentalists.

        Though, as a beard haver I’m pretty happy I’m not confused with these asshats due to my appearance.
