The new “Lost Cause” and white Christian nationalism

The answer to extreme right wing causes is not political. It is a not a left wing movement. It is not any “ism” we can look to for “the solution.” We have a deeper problem that won’t be “voted away.”

Despite what voices on the left might say, the solution to this problem is not political. Remember, “The North won the Civil War,” as Bryan Stevenson often says, “but the South won the narrative war.” A political defeat in 2024 won’t cast out the Lost Cause demon from among white evangelicals, just as it didn’t in 2020 or 2022. In fact, another lost election may do the opposite by strengthening their sense of victimhood and apocalyptic tribulation.
